Five Star Gift Ideas

For your grandson who has an interest in mixology and bartending, there are plenty of meaningful and personalized gift options that you can consider. Here are a few ideas:

1. Cocktail Recipe Book: A comprehensive and professionally curated cocktail recipe book would be an excellent gift for your grandson. Look for one that covers a wide range of cocktails, including classics and modern creations. You could even personalize it by writing a heartfelt message on the first page or bookmarking his favorite recipes.

2. Premium Bartending Tools: Help enhance your grandson's bartending skills by gifting him a set of high-quality bartending tools. Look for a set that includes essentials like a cocktail shaker, jigger, muddler, strainer, and a mixing spoon. Consider choosing a set made from stainless steel or copper, as they provide durability and a classic look.

3. Craft Liquors or Unique Spirits: Explore the world of craft liquors or unique spirits and surprise your grandson with a bottle or two. Look for small-batch craft spirits, local distillery offerings, or special limited-edition releases. Consider his preferences or any specific cocktail recipes he has mentioned to select spirits that would complement his mixology experiments.

4. Mixology Masterclass: Treat your grandson to an educational experience by gifting him a mixology masterclass or workshop. Many bartending schools or mixology programs offer hands-on courses where he can learn more about the art of cocktail making and refine his skills. This personalized gift will not only help enhance his knowledge but also provide him with a memorable experience.

5. Customized Bar Tools: Add a personal touch to your grandson's bartending setup by gifting him customized bar tools. Look for vendors or websites that offer personalized engravings or monogramming services. Consider engraving his initials or his favorite mixology quote on a cocktail shaker, jigger, or even a set of glassware.

6. Subscription Box: Consider signing your grandson up for a cocktail subscription box service. These boxes often include unique ingredients, recipes, and bartending tools delivered to his doorstep on a regular basis. This gift will allow him to experiment with new flavors and techniques, providing him with a constant source of inspiration for his mixology journey.

Remember, the most important aspect of any gift is the thought and care you put into selecting it. Take the time to consider your grandson's specific interests, preferences, and any items he may already have, to ensure you choose a gift that is both meaningful and practical for his mixology and bartending pursuits.

Or you can get him a star map with the date when he was born.

Luann Skinner says about Under Lucky Stars star maps:

“I ordered the star map 8 days before my daughter's birthday. It arrived in 7 days just in time for her birthday. Thank you! She loved the star map.”
