No matter the reason, it’s five days until Christmas and you need an awesome gift now! Here’s a tasty last minute gift idea for cocktail lovers sure to not be re-gifted.

About The Crafty Cask:
According to their website, The Crafty Cask celebrates all things craft alcohol. From the people to the art and science of the craft itself, to unique approaches and industry innovations, to that delicious liquid in the bottle — if it’s related to craft alcohol and there’s an interesting story behind it, The Crafty Cask celebrates it.
I love celebrating special events and while I’m no mixologist, I do love seasonal cocktails, especially if I can share them with my husband and friends. I think the Sip Scout subscription box is a wonderful idea because it is designed with sharing in mind.
Each Sip Scout Box comes with all the ingredients needed to make two drinks, some may even have a special surprise. The smart folks at Craft Cask thought of everything by sending a handy Sip Scout Report in each box where you’ll learn the background story about the featured makers, styles, and tipples included each month, including food pairing, serving suggestions and cocktail recipes!
The Cocktail Liqueurs and Mixes:
The Cocktail Garnishes:
My Sip Scout box is for December, so the cocktail recipes included are made to bring out the festive cheer in all of us and with step by step directions, we may become Mixologists too.
There’s the Santa Spritz, which contains Amaro liqueur, Cider, dashes of orange bitters and an orange slice for garnish.
Next, there’s a delightful sounding cocktail called the Pom Prancer. This drink has Calvados brandy, Pomegranate liqueur, orange bitters and a green sugar to rim your glass.
Lastly, there’s Festive Fizz, a delightful sounding cocktail made with Lemon juice, Brown sugar Bourbon, Cider, foamer, and a garnish of Cinnamon sugar.
My Thoughts:
I’m so delighted with the December Sip Scout box, I’m going to give it to my husband as an early Christmas present! If he likes it as much as I think he will, I’m ordering him the 6 month subscription online, so we can continue to enjoy their tasting flights or mixology kits.
