It's that time of year when you're scrambling to find the perfect gift for the holidays - or just for yourself. Obviously, the easiest gift cure is a bottle of vodka, but maybe go a step above. Here are a few ideas that your vodka lover will cheers to you with.
- Brand Gift sets - Grab them while you can. Many wait until closer to Christmas and as a result, miss out on finding them. These gift sets often come with glassware or barware, some even with minis; others offer limited design bottles or special editions. They're priced normally at the same price as the 750ml bottle alone.
- Distillery Tours - if you're lucky enough to be near a vodka distillery, a tour & tasting could be a great way to spend the afternoon or evening. Some venues offer food and/or music as well at their tasting rooms. They tend to also have plenty of merchandise for purchase to commemorate your visit. If possible, try to get your purchased bottle signed by the owner or master distiller.
- On that note - grab your Texas Vodka Lovers a Vodka,TX membership. This is a great way to find out about local distilleries around Texas and comes with perks when visiting partnering distilleries. Self-paced, so you can visit whenever you want, throughout the year and only $45. Grab yours here and start enjoying exploring vodka distilleries across Texas.
