This Christmas – or Ginmas, as I like to refer to it – you can buy yourself a loved one an advent calendar full of gin. What more could you want on a cold December morning evening.
Ok, so I’m aware I’m writing about Christmas when it’s not quite yet September, but the prospect of finding a little bottle of tonic behind a window instead of some cheap chocolate is quite nice.
To kick-start the month, you will receive a full-sized bottle of gin before receiving a variety of tonics to open each day in the lead up to Christmas.
Behind the windows, there are a range of branded tonics, including Fever Tree and Fentimans, Double Dutch, Franklin and Sons, Bottlegreen and London Essense.
And it’s not just standard tonic either, there is a range of flavours to compliment the gin – including pomegranate and basil, cinnamon, tangerine, and cucumber and watermelon.
The calendar is now available from The Pip Stop for pre-order and it costs £99, which is fairly steep compared to what you’d usually spend on an advent calendar, but think of the cold glasses of G&T.
And if gin isn’t your thing, The Pip Stop is also selling a whole range of Christmas gifts, including whiskey baubles, vodka baubles and wine advent calendars.
Chin chin.
