Five Star Gift Ideas

If your daughter enjoys experimenting with mixology and cocktail creation, I have a few gift ideas that might be perfect for her!

1. Mixology Set: Consider getting her a complete mixology set with all the essential tools she needs to create her own cocktails. This can include a cocktail shaker, a jigger, a strainer, a muddler, a bar spoon, and a mixing glass. You may even find sets that come with a recipe book to inspire her with new drink ideas.

2. Unique Ingredients: To enhance her creations, gift her with some unique and high-quality cocktail ingredients. This could include artisanal bitters, infused syrups, flavored liqueurs, or even rare spirits. These special ingredients can add complexity and depth to her homemade cocktails, allowing her to explore new flavor combinations.

3. Cocktail Recipe Book: A cocktail recipe book can be a great gift for someone who enjoys mixology. Look for a book that includes a wide range of drink recipes, from classics to modern creations. You might also consider a book that focuses on a specific theme, such as craft cocktails, seasonal drinks, or even cocktails from different cultures.

4. Craft Spirits Tasting Kit: For a more unique gift, consider a craft spirits tasting kit. These kits often include small bottles of different types of spirits, allowing her to taste and compare various flavors and styles. This can be a fun and educational way for her to deepen her understanding of different spirits and how they can be used in cocktails.

5. Cocktail Subscription Box: Another great idea is to gift her a subscription to a cocktail subscription box service. These boxes typically include a variety of mixers, garnishes, and recipes each month, allowing her to try out new flavors and experiment with different cocktail recipes.

6. Cocktail Class or Workshop: If you want to give her a memorable experience, consider enrolling her in a mixology class or workshop. This can be a great opportunity for her to learn new techniques, explore different flavor profiles, and gain insights from professional mixologists. It's a gift that combines education and fun!

7. Personalized Barware: To add a personal touch, consider getting her some customized barware. This could include engraved cocktail glasses, personalized coasters, or even a monogrammed cocktail shaker. It shows that you've put thought into the gift and adds a special touch to her mixology endeavors.

Remember, the most important thing is to show your daughter that you support and encourage her passion for mixology. By choosing a gift that complements her interest, you're demonstrating that you not only appreciate her hobby but also believe in her talent and creativity.

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