While the first day of December means the first day of cracking open your gin advent calendars, the holiday month also calls for baubles and crackers filled with our favourite drops.
Thankfully, the selection of gin sets, crackers and tree ornaments is bigger and better than ever this year, filled with everything from miniature bottles to gin-infused jam—and with Christmas right around the corner, it’s time to stock up on the latest on offer.
So whether you’re looking for yourself or the gin obsessed loved one in your life, we’ve rounded up the best Christmas gin decorations to add to your wishlist.
Wild Hibiscus Flower Company Gingle Bells Floral Gin Baubles, $79
The perfect way to add a special touch to your tree this year (or if you’re after the perfect gift), Wild Hibiscus Flower Company’s Gingle Bells Floral Gin Baubles are uniquely distilled by the Australian gin maker, creating six unique botanicals to give the decorations a beautiful colour and equally as beautiful flavour. The botanicals include specially selected edible flowers and Australian native fruits, like finger lime, which is grown locally on the Wild Hibiscus Flower Company farm.
Pickering’s Gin Christmas Baubles, $37.69
Pickering’s iconic colourful Christmas baubles are back for the 2020 season, providing the perfect gift for your gin obsessed loved ones. The classic bauble packs contain six different coloured plastic baubles—pink, blue, purple, yellow, red and green—and are filled with Pickering’s delicious gin, all finished off with a rose gold lid and red ribbon. Get in quick, these ones are already selling out worldwide.
Aldi’s Christmas Gin Crackers, $34.95
Each year, Aldi never disappoints with its boozy Christmas lineup—and this year is no different. Releasing their Christmas Gin crackers on November 11, this year you can swap out the novelty games and paper crowns for a set of six gins from British distillery, Greenall’s. Each cracker has its own individual miniature bottle inside, putting a perfect grown-up spin on the festive tradition.
Fever-Tree Gin & Tonic Crackers, from $16
Stuck for Christmas cocktail ideas? Fever-Tree’s Gin & Tonic crackers are the answer. Each luxe cracker comes with a mini craft gin carefully matched to a speciality Fever-Tree tonic water, with selections from Adelaide Hills Distillery, Moores Dry Gin, Scapegrace, Hendrick’s Gin, and more.
The luxe crackers will be available at David Jones from mid-November.
Pinkster Gin Cracker, $22
While admittedly we do enjoy the teeny, tiny tape measure that comes flying out of the Christmas cracker each year, we enjoy the tradition even more when finding a raspberry gin jam with matching gin in its place. Pinkster has released its special edition Christmas cracker for the upcoming holiday season, featuring the distillery’s jam which can be spread on toast, added to some cake or even stirred into Champagne—the possibilities are endless.
Gintonica Crafty Xmas Gin Bonbons, $59.95
For the sustainable gin lover in your life, Gintonica’s reusable bonbons are each filled with a diverse selection of Australian gins. That means you can have as many Christmas events as you want, filling these crackers up each time with a new selection of delicious drinks. You can even pack them away for next year!
