Holiday gift ideas: liquor gift sets

December 2, 9:04 AM
by Colin Roybal, Bars and Clubs Examiner
 

Gift sets usually include a great collectable glass
With the holidays rapidly approaching, and everyone scrambling for the best gifts to give, shopping can be a bit hectic. And isn’t there always that one person on your list that you just can’t seem to find the perfect gift for? Well, the solution to that problem is simple. Buy them a drink!

Almost everyone has a favorite liquor or mixed drink that they pour for themselves from time to time. Why not take advantage of the fact that getting them a bottle of their favorite booze would be a sure winner? But, just to one-up that idea, try instead finding their favorite bottle in a gift set at a liquor store.

Almost every store in America will have these special gift sets, and usually at a good price. The sets come with a bottle of the liquor of choice, and usually some kind of collector shot glass, or other glassware of some kind. These make great gifts because you’ve bought someone not only a drink (or rather, several), but also a great keepsake to hang on to after the bottle is empty.
