17 holiday gifts for the alcohol aficionado in your life (that aren’t just bottles of booze)

Boy do we have a treat for you and that friend who loves a good after-work drink and/or nightcap! (Assuming they’re 21 or older. In the words of J-Kwon, “Teen drinking, is very bad.”) We’re talking alcohol gifts.

This shopping roundup is all about the booze, without the actual booze. Because getting yet another bottle of wine as a gift is nearly just as boring as getting another pair of socks. “But what’s better than getting actual alcohol?” you ask? Bar carts! Rosé-scented candles! Cute stir sticks with festive ‘lil phrases on them! Copper martini glasses, because who doesn’t want to be fancy AF!?

Good luck not splurging on one (or five) of these alcohol gifts for yourself, too.
