Five Star Gift Ideas

For your daughter who loves experimenting with mixology, I have a few unique and meaningful gift ideas that will surely make her Christmas special.

1. Mixology Set: Consider gifting her a comprehensive mixology set that includes essential tools like a shaker, muddler, jigger, strainer, and stirrers. This will allow her to experiment with different cocktail recipes and enhance her mixology skills at home.

2. Cocktail Recipe Book: Instead of a regular recipe book, look for a specialized cocktail recipe book that features unique and creative cocktail recipes. It can be focused on specific themes, ingredients, or mixology techniques. This will provide her with endless inspiration and help her expand her knowledge in the art of mixology.

3. Craft Spirits or Infusion Kit: If your daughter enjoys experimenting with unique flavors, consider getting her craft spirits or an infusion kit. Craft spirits are artisanal and often small-batch spirits that come in various flavors, such as herbal, fruit-infused, or barrel-aged. An infusion kit typically includes a selection of herbs, spices, and botanicals that can be added to spirits for personal flavor customization.

4. Cocktail Subscription Box: Another wonderful gift idea is a cocktail subscription box. There are several monthly subscription services that deliver curated cocktail ingredients and recipes straight to your doorstep. This will give your daughter the opportunity to try new cocktail recipes and ingredients regularly, adding excitement and variety to her mixology experiments.

5. Mixology Classes or Workshops: Consider gifting your daughter an opportunity to enhance her mixology skills by enrolling her in a mixology class or workshop. Many cities offer hands-on classes where professionals teach participants about the art of cocktail making, the history of spirits, and provide an opportunity to create their own signature cocktails. This experience will not only provide her with new techniques but also create lasting memories.

6. Personalized Barware: To add a personal touch, consider getting your daughter personalized barware. You could choose to engrave her initials or name on a set of high-quality glasses, a cocktail shaker, or even on a mixing spoon. This gift will not only be reflective of her passion for mixology but also serve as a cherished keepsake for years to come.

Remember, the most meaningful gifts are often the ones that align with your daughter's interests and passions. With these mixology-inspired gift ideas, you can show your support for her hobby and encourage her to continue exploring and experimenting with her love for mixology.

Or you can get her a star map with an important date you share.
