Make your own pink gin gift set for perfectly pretty presents this Christmas!
Oct 25, 2019
Pink gin has become a much-beloved tipple across the nation in the last few years, and it’s a real treat to be able to give any fans of this perfectly pretty spirit a pink gin gift set, including lots of little elements, as a present on Christmas day.
Rather than going for a generic supermarket gift box, though, why not go the extra mile and put together a much more personal, homemade pink gin gift set, full of treats that you’ve hand-selected just for the special person in your life?
If that seems like a bit of a challenge, don’t worry - we’ve selected a few of our favourite pink gin-related items, from gorgeous copa glasses to pretty garnishes - and of course, the gin itself - to inspire you!
It’s a gift that will guarantee you major brownie points (and you might even get invited to share some pink gin cocktails as a result - fingers crossed!) Happy festive shopping, everyone!
Make your own pink gin!
Why fork out for generic pink gin that anyone can buy in the supermarket when you could present someone with a beautiful bottle of lovingly homemade, delicious pink gin made with REAL fruit and quality gin?! It’s incredibly simple to prepare at home (not to mention a lot more affordable) and it shows real care has gone into your gift.
You can make pink gin (they’re flavoured gin liqueurs, really) with a number of different fruits. Below you can find the recipe for two of our favourite flavours, raspberry gin and rhubarb and ginger gin, but feel free to experiment with other ingredients - strawberry, for example, will also give you a pretty pink gin.
2. Hand-pick a few pretty pink gin mixers
There are so many delicious, new and high-quality mixers in the shops these days, but you’ll rarely find them in one of the supermarket pink gin gift sets. You can find some of our favourites in the Craft Gin Club online shop.
Oh, and remember that tonic isn’t the only option; there are some delightful alternatives out there. Take a look!
Find your ideal pink gin mixer or tonic water on the Craft Gin Club shop!
3. Choose some cute pink gin extras
Here’s where you can make this homemade pink gin gift set even more personal for your loved one - instead of receiving the same few gins and mixers that everyone across the country will get, you can add in a little extra miniature pressie or two based on exactly what they love!
Whether it’s chocolates, a scented candle, some dried garnishes or a pink flavoured syrup for their favourite cocktails, they are bound to be delighted by the thoughtful contents! Here’s a little inspiration to get you started:
These pink gin chocolate creams only cost £1.49 in Aldi!
These Raspberry Gin Edible Cocktail Stirrers (£4.95 on Yumbles) are the perfect finishing touch for a pink gin and tonic!
5. Add a Pink Gin glass or two
If you’re going the full kit and caboodle, then you’ll want to include a gorgeous gin glass in a blushing shade of pink to match the rest of your gift set. Here are just a few of our faves.
5. Don’t forget the gift box!
It’s all in the details when it comes to gifts! Is there anything more exciting than receiving a really beautifully wrapped present?
Luckily, a homemade gin gift set means you can forgo the tacky plastic and cardboard and pick a seriously pretty box or bag of your choice that your gin-loving friend or relative is going to adore finding under the tree!
Of course, if you don’t have the time to source all the different elements for a homemade pink gin gift set, why not treat your loved one to a one-off box or - even better - an annual membership to Craft Gin Club?
This way, they will be reminded of how much you care every time a new Gin of the Month box arrives on their doorstep! Find out more.
