5 Great Gift Ideas for the Alcohol Enthusiast

1/22/2018

0 Comments

 
​Gift-giving. It’s something that we are often faced with throughout the course of any given year, whether it’s the holidays, a wedding, or a significant birthday (e.g. 21, 30, 40, etc.), we are often placed in that difficult position of trying to figure out what to buy as a gift for the occasion. Seeing as most adults tend to enjoy a drink or two every so often, here are some unique gift ideas related to alcohol that may solve your conundrum:
Whiskey Stones 
These elegant stones (crafted in many different shapes and sizes) are perfect for an alcohol enthusiast’s best whiskey, bourbon, or scotch. They don’t dilute the flavor of the alcoholic drink you use them with as traditional ice cubes would, and ensure that the beverage will stay at a refreshing cool temperature. To make them work? Easy. Put them in the freezer until you are ready to use them.

Wine Pearls 
Much like the aforementioned Whiskey Stones, Wine Pearls (usually elegantly crafted out of stainless steel) are perfect for keeping your wine nice and cool without risking the flavor of the beverage becoming compromised due to melting ice cubes. Wine Pearls also come in many different shapes and sizes, but are most often crafted with a smooth and aesthetically pleasing exterior. Just like the Whiskey Stones, all one must do to prepare Wine Pearls for use is put them in the freezer.
 
Beer Cap Map 
What a wonderful piece of art for any beer-drinking enthusiast! A finely wood-crafted cutout of the United States complete with a deeply satisfying dark wood varnish and covered with the beer caps of some of the nation’s finest beers as represented by their region of origin. Not only is a Beer Cap Map fun to look at and see what parts of the country are best at creating certain types of beers (e.g. from light beers to pale ales to red beers and all the way up to famous stouts), the Beer Cap Map is a great conversation starter.
 
Wall Bottle Opener 
Imagine having a bottle opener, usually made from durable stainless steel or other dependable material, that is conveniently attached to the wall in your kitchen or next to your own home bar area for easy use! Gone are the days of searching your utensil drawers for a smaller, much more difficult to use bottle opener, or awkwardly asking a friend if you can borrow their keys to get to their keychain bottle opener. A Wall Bottle Opener is discrete, easy to install, and quite convenient when someone needs to open their favorite bottled alcoholic beverage.
 
Wine Cork Coasters 

Simply put, these are coasters made from wine corks. Many manufacturer’s will take corks from one’s favorite wines and custom make a set of unique and artistically beautiful coasters. And while the coasters themselves might make for some conversation depending on the types of wine which each cork came from, because these coasters are made from durable wine corks, they also absorb any liquid from beverages resting on top of them with ease. A great gift for the wine enthusiast you know!

Winter is in full force here in Fort Collins, Colorado – which means that cold temperatures have set in and snow is on the ground. Well, at least, we’ve had SOME snow so far in 2018. But while beautiful Colorado summers call for cold, refreshing cocktails that quench your thirst, Colorado winters summon a much different type of cocktail.

Mulberry MAX Liquor Store has found some unique winter cocktails that are sure to satisfy your sweet tooth, and you can pick up almost everything you need right here at our Old Town Fort Collins liquor store. These cocktails are not only easy to make, but perfect for cold Colorado winter nights.
Cinnamon Roll Cocktail
  • One Part Fireball Cinnamon Whiskey
  • One Part Cream Soda
  • Whipped Cream (optional)
  • Cinnamon (optional)
This drink is easy to make, and is sure to raise some eyebrows in a sweet, cinnamon way. Top shots or glasses with plain or vanilla whipped cream and a dusting of cinnamon for a breakfast favorite in a glass!

Apple Cranberry Moscow Mule
  • 1/8 cup cranberry juice
  • 1/4 cup sparkling apple cider

  • Fresh cranberries (frozen or thawed)

​A sweet twist on an all-time favorite, the apple cranberry Moscow mule is perfect for autumn or winter holiday parties. Try replacing the cranberries with blueberries, or adding slices of fresh apple.
Homemade S’mores Hot Chocolate
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 graham cracker crushed
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 1 tbsp simple syrup
  • 1/4 cup chocolate syrup
  • 1/4 cup chocolate pudding mix powder
  • 2 oz. whiskey
  • Marshmallows (or marshmallow fluff)

No winter is complete without hot chocolate, so try this fun and awesome twist on an all-time favorite. Whiskey is used to give it a little kick, and even without the S’mores touch, you can add whiskey to spike ANY hot chocolate drink.
