Five Star Gift Ideas

If your son is interested in mixology, there are plenty of fun and meaningful gift options to consider. Here are a few ideas to inspire you:

1. Mixology Kit: A mixology kit could be the perfect gift to fuel your son's passion. Look for a comprehensive set that includes a shaker, muddler, strainer, jigger, mixing spoon, and recipe book. This will allow him to create a wide variety of cocktails right at home.

2. Cocktail Recipe Book: Expand your son's mixology skills with a cocktail recipe book. Look for a book that features a diverse range of drink recipes, including classics, modern creations, and mixology techniques. This gift will provide him with a wealth of knowledge and inspiration for his craft.

3. Unique Ingredients: Help your son experiment with new flavors and ingredients by gifting him a selection of unique spirits, bitters, syrups, or garnishes. These special additions can elevate his cocktail creations and allow him to explore new taste profiles.

4. Cocktail Glasses: A set of high-quality cocktail glasses can significantly enhance the drinking experience. Consider gifting your son a set of stylish martini glasses, old fashioned glasses, or a collection of unique glassware that will elevate the presentation of his creations.

5. Mixology Classes or Seminars: Encourage your son's interest by enrolling him in mixology classes or seminars. This could be a valuable opportunity for him to learn from professionals, expand his knowledge, and connect with others who share his passion.

6. Personalized Barware: To add a personal touch to his mixology experience, consider gifting your son personalized barware. Engraved cocktail shakers, monogrammed muddlers, or customized coasters are thoughtful and unique options that will make his bar setup special.

7. Cocktail Subscription Box: A cocktail subscription box can be a delightful surprise that keeps on giving. Such a subscription typically delivers a curated selection of spirits, mixers, and recipe cards straight to your son's doorstep each month, allowing him to continually explore new flavors and techniques.

8. Bartending Tools Organizer: Help your son keep his mixology tools organized and easily accessible with a bartending tools organizer. Look for a stylish and functional option that allows him to neatly store all his equipment, keeping his bar area clutter-free.

Remember, the most important thing is to show your son that you support his interests and share in his enthusiasm. Whether it's through a practical gift or an experience that nurtures his passion, your thoughtful gesture will surely be appreciated and cherished.

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

Madeline Moran Weiler says about Under Lucky Stars star maps:

“The map was absolutely beautiful! My grandson was thrilled with it (it was a Christmas gift) and has already asked me if I would consider getting another one for him as a graduation gift in a couple of years.”
