American Mule Gift Set

If you’re looking for a last-minute gift for your vodka loving friend or family member, then look no further! Tito’s American Mule is made with vodka, ginger beer, and lime juice. And it just so happens you can get all three of those things delivered to your door in 30 minutes. All you need is a basket or bag to neatly tuck the ingredients. For bonus points, print the recipe (courtesy of Tito’s Handmade Vodka) and attach with a colorful ribbon.

For added authenticity, you can also get them their very own copper mug from Tito’s Handmade Vodka.

Toasted Pecan Infusion

This toasted pecan infusion is the perfect holiday gift for any dessert loving drinker. All you’ll need is a bottle of Tito’s Handmade Vodka and a bag of pecans. Simply toast a cup and a half of pecans in the oven at 350 degrees, just until they become aromatic (about five minutes). Once they cool, drop them in the bottle of vodka, seal and store in a cool dark place. To really absorb the nutty goodness, this infusion needs about 30 days, but we promise it will be worth the wait!

Once your infusion is ready for gifting, we recommend including a recipe and ingredients to create a decadent Pecan Pie Martini. Here’s what you’ll need:

2 oz Toasted Pecan Infused Tito’s Handmade Vodka
2 oz half & half
¾ tsp honey
¼ tsp vanilla
Crushed pecans for garnish

Add all ingredients to a shaker with ice.  Shake and strain into a martini glass with a crushed pecan rim.

Bloody Mary Gift Set

Far beyond basic, this Bloody Mary gift set will leave any weekend brunch warrior begging for more. For maximum holiday cheer, we recommend starting with a red chili pepper infused vodka. Using a mason jar or decorative bottle, slice and remove the seeds from four red chili peppers. Toss them in the bottle and pour in the Tito’s Handmade Vodka. It’s a good idea to date your infusions, because the longer the peppers stay in the vodka, the spicier it will get. Great incentive to drink up!

Once you’ve got your festive red pepper infused vodka ready to go, order your favorite Bloody Mary mix, throw in a jar of olives, and you’ve got a creative and thoughtful gift basket for any Bloody Mary lover.

Candy Cane Infusion

Candy canes are a quintessential holiday candy. And, like most holiday traditions, they’re even better with vodka. To start crafting this holiday-themed infusion, all you’ll need are some mason jars (any decorative bottle or jar the can be tightly sealed will do), a box of candy canes and some festive ribbon.

For our infusion, we prefer to use the miniature candy canes. This minimizes your efforts, since they’ll fit in the jar without having to break them up. Plus, it ups the cuteness factor by at least 10. After removing any wrappers, toss 20 mini canes (or 10 broken large canes) into the jar and pour in your Tito’s Handmade Vodka. You’ll want to leave a little bit of space at the top so you can shake the jar during the infusion to help break down the candy.

All you need to do now is wait 24 hours, or until the candy canes have dissolved completely. Add your ribbon, using it to secure a mini candy cane to the outside of the jar, and you’ve got an adorable custom cocktail just waiting to be gifted to your peppermint loving friend or coworker!

Serving Suggestions: This candy cane infused vodka tastes great on the rocks or combined with coffee or hot cocoa.
