Home Bar Tool Gifts for the Cocktail Lover in your Life
For the person in your life who loves cocktails and would enjoy making them at home, these bar tools are a practical and beautiful choice!
margarita salt rimmer cocktail glass
This super affordable, useful, and polished tool really comes in handy when you want to do a tiny thing to make a cocktail a little extra special. It is perfect for its classic use, salting a margarita glass, but it is also great for holiday cocktails that could use a cinnamon sugar rim!
These gorgeous cocktail shakers are hand painted and hand hammered by artisans in Mexico, and the craftsmanship just is divine. These are made to order and a true work of art and community. They’ve been on my own list forever!
Thomas got me this for Christmas last year and I am honestly obsessed with it. For being such an accessible price it feels and looks pretty high quality in my opinion, and I think it is so beautiful and useful. You will likely see some smoked cocktails over in my cocktails list or during 25 days of Christmas!
There is nothing more annoying than looking around for a bottle opener, so why not get your loved one a really cute one that can be kept on display in their kitchen or home bar so it is never out of reach? I love the design of this one! It reminds me of our whale bottle opener we got at the New Orleans botanical gardens!
catherine martin starry night bar tools
Catherine Martin was the costume designer for Gatsby and many more beautiful films. I honestly love the entire collection she has at Anthropologie right now and have gorgeous martini glasses listed under glassware!
I’ve used them for infusions, grapefruitcello, batch cocktails, and syrups. They just are truly such a joy to use due to the highly functional design and dishwasher safe ways!
If you know someone who likes to do fancy garnishes, this is a great tool to consider for them! I hear amazing things about how well it works and holds up.
Nothing brings cocktail hour at home up a notch quite like actually breaking out the shaker, especially when its one as beautiful as this. Get this for the host in your life or the person who just enjoys a cocktail as part of their down time at home.
I really love this paring knife I have to use to cut up citrus while making cocktails! It works so well and fits perfectly in my hands. It has held up great over the past year that I’ve had it.
These are just absolutely beautiful and perfect for your bourbon soaked cherries or martini olives.
