Five Star Gift Ideas

For your mixology and cocktail-loving grandma, there are plenty of thoughtful gifts that can enhance her hobby and make her feel appreciated. Here are a few ideas that might inspire you:

1. Cocktail Recipe Book: Consider gifting her a beautifully illustrated cocktail recipe book. Look for one that includes a variety of classic and unique cocktails, as well as some history or tips on mixology techniques. This gift will provide her with endless inspiration and help her elevate her cocktail-making skills.

2. Mixology Kit: Upgrade your grandma's cocktail-making tools with a high-quality mixology kit. Look for one that includes essentials like a shaker, jigger, muddler, strainer, and stirrer. A convenient and organized kit will make her feel like a professional mixologist every time she creates a drink.

3. Unique Glassware: Help your grandma elevate her drinking experience with unique and stylish glassware. Look for glasses that are specifically designed for certain cocktails, such as martini glasses, old-fashioned glasses, or even copper Moscow Mule mugs. Consider choosing glassware with intricate patterns or personalized engravings to add a personal touch.

4. Craft Cocktail Subscription: Treat your grandma to a craft cocktail subscription box. There are several companies that offer monthly or quarterly deliveries of curated mixology ingredients and recipes. This subscription will allow her to try new flavors and experiment with different cocktail recipes, all delivered right to her doorstep.

5. Cocktail-Making Workshops: Check if there are any local cocktail-making workshops or classes in your area. Sign your grandma up for a hands-on experience where she can learn new techniques, explore different flavor profiles, and meet other mixology enthusiasts. This gift not only provides education but also an opportunity for her to socialize with like-minded individuals.

6. Homemade Infusion Kit: Help your grandma take her cocktails to the next level by creating a homemade infusion kit for her. Put together a selection of interesting ingredients, such as dried fruits, herbs, or spices, along with some high-quality spirits. Include recipe cards or instructions on how to infuse the flavors into the liquor. This gift will allow her to be creative and experiment with unique flavor combinations.

7. Mixology Masterclass: If your grandma is passionate about mixology, she might enjoy participating in a virtual or in-person mixology masterclass. Look for experienced mixologists or bartenders who offer personalized classes. During these masterclasses, she can learn advanced techniques, master her favorite cocktails, and gain insider knowledge from the experts.

Remember, the most important part of any gift is the thought behind it. Think about your grandma's personal preferences and interests in mixology, and choose a gift that reflects her unique style and passion. With any of these options, you're sure to make her feel loved and encouraged in her cocktail-making journey.

Or you can get her a star map with the date when she was born.
