A Christmas Gift Guide for Drink Lovers!
At Christmas time, there is one thing that I do not begrudge myself and that’s is a tipple of something fun. It could be Southern Comfort {my go-to tipple}, Pink Gin {my new tipple of choice} or the classic choice, a Bailey’s. Because Baileys just screams Christmas, right? I think so! But anyway, I am sharing a really fun Christmas Gift guide for Drink Lovers today and I hope you enjoy it and get some gift inspiration. Bottles of Gin, Whiskey etc can make such lovely gift ideas for Family & Friends and you can wrap them up in so many different ways, too!
Christmas Gift Guide Ideas for those who like a festive tipple
There are so many lovely choices on the shelves for a drink this festive season. My Dads personal favourite is Asbach Brandy. Whereas my husband is partial to a simple Strawberry & Lime Kopperberg with his Christmas dinner. Throughout this post, I am going to share with you a range of lovely brands of Wines, Gins, Vodka and more. Giving you some inspiration for family, friends and even good neighbours.
As a blogger and social media ‘person’ {I hate the word ‘influencer’}, I love to promote local products from the place I was born. Which if you don’t already know, is Northern Ireland. We are a small, beautiful, idyllic island, filled with the kindest and most banter-fueled people known to man. We are the sort of folk that could tell our life story to a stranger at the bus stop. Or ask how someone we don’t even know how they are, as we pass them in the street.
Gift ideas for the Drink lover in your life
And on our small yet beautiful and idyllic island, we have a host of local brands vibrant with character and fun. This local brand Mourne Dew is one of the local brands and I am a little bit obsessed.
Mourne Dew Irish Gin & Vodka
Mourne Dew Distillery is the first legal distillery to operate in the mountains, for many a century. Right here in Northern Ireland. They are award-winning for a reason and have a wide range of products, such as whiskeys, vodka and gin galore.
This delicious gin is pink/purple in colour and comes with waves of flavours. From raspberries, strawberries, other red berries and a touch of Turkish delight. It has a fruity, vibrancy about it. Making for the perfect tipple of choice for those sweet gin fans out there. I personally pair all of my gin tipples up with a splash of lemonade and this one is no different. Really fresh on the tongue, super tasty and that spicy undertone to it? Perfection.
This particular vodka has been made from the finest grain and the purest water, filtered through volcanic rocks of the Mourne Mountains. I mean, what a process, right? This drink is a perfect fusion of modern meets ancient. It is infused with the finest Irish rose petals and as someone who had never tasted a floral vodka before, I absolutely adore this one.
Luxlo Spirits
These individually distilled botanical Luxlo gins are not only 28 calories per bottle but also come with a lower alcohol volume. So they’re perfect if you are looking to enjoy a tipple {or three} and trying to avoid a dreaded hangover. These little beauties are the ones!
Mermaid Gin & Salt Vodka
The Isle of Wight Distillery has the nicest range of gins and salt water vodka. And can we just appreciate it the bottles for a second? Absolutely beautiful. The Mermaid Salt Vodka is handcrafted on the Isle with the most delicious ingredients, including a pinch of locally sourced sea salt.
The Mermaid Gin has a real lemon zest kick to it, but also goes down as smooth as silk. And to top it off? The stunning glass bottles are eco-friendly!
Ginology Gin Glasses
What better way to enjoy a glass of gin than it on one of these beautiful Ginology Gin Glasses. Ginology have a beautiful range of gin glasses to choose from and I really love these Poppy designed ones. Wouldn’t you agree?
