Christmas is one of those rare times of year where everything slows down just enough. Homes feel warmer, tables get fuller, and families come together to celebrate old traditions while creating new ones. It’s a season built around sharing — food, drinks, stories, and time with the people who matter most.
While the holidays are meant to be joyful, gift-giving can sometimes feel like pressure. Not everyone finds it easy, especially when budgets differ and expectations aren’t always clear. That’s why alcohol gifts work so well — they’re thoughtful, practical, and meant to be enjoyed together rather than tucked away and forgotten.
At CWS, we believe it’s the sentiment behind the gift that matters most. Whether you’re turning up to a Christmas gathering, filling a stocking, or looking for something a little special, we’ve narrowed things down to a curated list of alcohol Christmas gifts that suit different tastes, personalities, and price points.

CWS Exclusive Ice Sphere
A great gift doesn’t always have to be liquid. This ice sphere mold is perfect for anyone who enjoys whiskey, bourbon, or sipping spirits slowly. The large spherical shape melts more slowly than regular cubes, keeping drinks colder without watering them down too quickly.
Fee Brothers Mint Bitters
For the cocktail enthusiast in your life, this bottle is a thoughtful addition to their home bar. With a fresh mint-forward profile, these bitters work beautifully in classic cocktails and add depth to chocolate or coffee-based drinks during the festive season.

Every home bar needs a solid shaker set, and this engraved option feels both practical and gift-worthy. It’s ideal for someone moving into a new place, hosting more often, or finally upgrading from makeshift mixing tools to something more refined.
Effen Cucumber Vodka
Light, crisp, and refreshing, this cucumber-infused vodka is perfect for those who prefer clean and subtle flavors. It works well in simple highballs, martinis, or holiday cocktails that don’t rely on heavy spices or sweetness.
Taittinger La Française Brut Champagne
Some gifts don’t need wrapping. This classic Champagne is an excellent choice when arriving at a host’s home or celebrating with family. Elegant, well-balanced, and endlessly drinkable, it fits effortlessly into any Christmas gathering.
Baileys Original Irish Cream
A holiday classic for good reason. Baileys works just as well in coffee as it does over ice or in festive desserts. It’s comforting, familiar, and perfect for cozy evenings after a long day of celebrating.
Sip Shine Watermelon Chillade
Refreshing options often get overlooked during the holidays. This watermelon-based shine offers a lighter, fruit-forward break from richer flavors, making it ideal for daytime sipping or casual get-togethers between big meals.
Belvedere Organic Infusions Pear & Ginger Vodka
Smooth vodka meets gently spiced warmth in this pear and ginger infusion. It’s versatile enough for cocktails yet refined enough to enjoy simply, making it a reliable gift for a wide range of drinkers.
Cocktail Caviar Strawberry
If you want something unexpected, these strawberry-flavored cocktail caviar pearls deliver. Drop them into sparkling wine, cocktails, or even desserts for a festive twist that feels both playful and creative.
Angel’s Envy Straight Rye Whiskey
Finished in French Oak Añejo Tequila Barrels
This rye offers a unique balance of spice and smoothness, thanks to its tequila barrel finish. It’s an excellent winter whiskey and a standout choice for someone who enjoys distinctive, well-crafted spirits.
Jägermeister Herbal Liqueur
A familiar favorite with deep herbal character, Jägermeister remains a versatile option for shots, cocktails, or after-dinner drinks. It’s a reliable gift for anyone who appreciates bold, unmistakable flavors.
Ardbeg Uigeadail Islay Single Malt Whisky
For serious whisky lovers, this Islay single malt delivers rich smoke, peat, and complexity. Powerful yet balanced, it’s a bold Christmas gift that makes a lasting impression.
Belle Glos Pinot Noir Blanc
This Pinot Noir Blanc offers a refreshing alternative for wine lovers. Bright, expressive, and food-friendly, it pairs beautifully with a wide range of holiday dishes while still feeling special enough for gifting.
Kylix A.N.T.E
Not every great gift has to be a drink. Kylix A.N.T.E is designed to support the body before and after alcohol consumption, making it a practical stocking stuffer for anyone planning to indulge during the holidays.
