This week DTWB has shared a Gift Guide for Traveling Parents and The Ultimate Christmas Themed Gifts for Christmas Lovers through BlogHer’s SheKnows Platform. Today, we wrap up the Gift Guides of 2015 with the It’s a Wine-derful life: Gift Ideas for Drinkers because what goes better with the holiday season than drinks by the fire (or just drinks) to put that holiday jingle in your jangle.
Twas the night before Christmas when all through the house, not a creature was stirring – well, I was stirring up a few cocktails.

In hopes that Saint Bruce-alas soon would be there;

This handy tool suctions to your tub and can hold a glass of wine, among other beverages. Sip Caddy, $13.95. (Available in 6 colors)
When out on the lawn there arose such a clatter,
I sprang from my bed to see what was the matter.
The only thing that could get me springing from bed on Christmas Day after a ridiculously fun and wine-filled Christmas Eve at BF’s house is coffee. A lot of coffee. And this sampler’s festive flavors sound fa-la-la-la-tastic. Christmas coffee, $10.99
…When what to my wondering eyes did appear,
But a miniature sleigh and eight tiny rein-deer,
Check out this winery for Christmas Wines like Rudolph’s Red (Pinot Noir), Vixen’s Vino (Chardonnay), and Blitzen’s Blanc. Eola Hills Winery, these under $20.

Now dash away! dash away! dash away all!”
A dash of one of these natural, dried spices of juniper berries, cardamom or hibiscus flower, to any gin cocktail will flavor up your holiday drink. Gin Tonic Botanical Infusions, $4.99.
… A bundle of toys he had flung on his back,
And he looked like a pedler just opening his pack.
