It’s Christmas time again, and you are out of ideas. Well, we are guessing simply by the fact that you are reading this that you like a little rum in your eggnog and chances are your loved ones do too. Luckily for you, we have 9 gifts for every kind of drinker out there, and we are willing to share (it is Christmas, after all), so you can get back to sipping your eggnog, spiked with whatever tickles your fancy.

The Kegerator Owner

Every time there is a party this guy has a keg. He even bought a kegerator instead of a new fridge to keep his brew frosty cold and dispensed professionally. For him we have the Tap Board Chalk Board Tap Handle (40). One tap can be used for all the beer he serves, with a erasable surface that can be used over and over again. Also good for home brewers that keg their beer, but don’t quite have that label figured out yet!

The Absinthe Addict

Got a friend who follows the Green Fairy? Help them do it in style with a Absinthe Spoon ($ – varies). With several styles to choose from (and one that even has its own box) absinthe spoons are a work of art unto them selves, and DrinkUpNY has a plethora to chose from!

The Antique Lover

Retro and antique glassware is in again, but sometimes it can be hard to find. Leave the finding to LQA Aesthetic, where you can find decanters, punch bowls and other unique glassware sets without the hours of estate sale hunting. And if you decide on your favorite set before 12/22, click on “get discount” and use the code DrinkGal at checkout and get %20 off. Classic, unique and on sale, what could be better? (oh, and about the aforementioned eggnog, they have antique punch bowls too!)

The Recycler

For the wine lover that wants to give the earth a hug, there is the Recycled Windshield White Wine Decanter ($50). Made specifically for decanting white wine, it has a pocket for ice so you can chill that bottle down lickety-split without watering it down.

The Princess

She’s got everything, except perhaps her name in crystals on a bottle of Moet Chandon ($90). The new line of bottles, called My Moet, features bottles with customizable messages on the front, lovingly made out of silver Swarovski crystals. You can choose between a standard 750 ml and Magnum sized (insert joke here) if just one bottle isn’t enough.

The Handyman

A hammer on one hip and a Beer Holster ($30) in the other. It’s sexy when a man has his priorities straight! This holster holds either a can or a bottle securely to his thigh, ready to be enjoyed after a long day of hammering, nailing, or even grill duty at the next BBQ!

The Social MacGyver

He’s the guy who always has a lighter, a witty comeback, and after this Christmas the Wallet Beer Opener ($20) for any social situation. The same size as a credit card, this stainless steel opener will fit in your wallet. Added bonus: you can engrave it with a personal message.

The Backyard Party Thrower

For the friend who loves wine and throws those killer BBQ’s, we have the Afterglow Garden Stake ($35). Recycle your favorite wine bottle and make it useful with this bottle wick set, complete with adjustable copper stake. The stake is also adjustable, allowing for three different heights.

The Latte Lover

For the coffee lover in your life we have the Aerolatte To Go ($13). Never hear them complain about a non foamy latte again! Fits in your pocket or purse, and can whip that milk into a froth in just 20 seconds. Perfect for those Seattlite purists, who just can’t seem to get enough caffeine!

Cheers to all, and to all a good dram! Merry Christmas!
