Fall's Finest Drink Gifts For Loved Ones: A Royal Batch Edition
Imagine an autumn evening with the leaves outside being deep orange and red. Inside you have gathered with your nearest and dearest around the fire telling tales of times past laughing over conversation and drinking wonderfully well thought out cocktails. The autumn season beckons warmth, unity and a little bit of gluttony — which should not be the exception to the beverages you imbibe. With a little luck, the right drink can help every moment feel at least a touch more magical — whether that's thanks to a stiff pour of something warm and rich enough to comfort your soul or just an old-timey vibed cocktail that makes you think: Now this is what fall should taste like.
As the weather gets cooler and people move inside, it’s a great time of year to really embrace those warm, cozy fall vibes through gifting — specifically with gifts that imbibe in mind. Whether in the form of bold whiskies and smooth rums or curated cocktail sets, a selected drink gift will speak directly to your recipient, that it comes not only from your heart but really what they would be able to taste and enjoy. With a harvest of flavors reminiscent of fall autumn cinnamons, apples, caramels and spices, there’s no better time to share a special sip from distilleries with unmatched flavors.
This fall, take the gifting bar even higher with Royal Batch. Discover incredible options for the fall season and drink to its warmth and magic. A toast from Royal Batch will be cherished, in good times shared or
otherwise.
Classic Fall Flavors
Pumpkin Spice
Of course, no fall gift list is complete without pumpkin spice. The pumpkin spice trend has quickly become synonymous with lattes, but it is equally at home in the realm of spirits and cocktails. But now you can drink your beloved flavor of fall through the ever-growing list of whiskey and rum distilleries that offer pumpkin-spice-infused counterparts. Or make pumpkin spice cocktails, just mix a splash of pumpkin puree, cinnamon, and nutmeg with your bourbon or spiced rum. It seems like a match made in heaven for those chill nights of autumn — bringing a little warmth and flavor both.
Apple Cider
Another absolute fall must-have is apple cider: light, refreshing and just a little sweet-tart. Hot or cold, with or without booze, the versatility of cider can be packed as nostalgia for that hayride and snuggle-for-winter night. Kidding aside, spiked apple cider is no-brainer for an addict other than being served with poison in a flask. All you need is some nice apple cider and your booze of choice — rum, bourbon or brandy are all great choices — to create a warm, fuzzy fall drink that your guests will love. Even serve a warm mug of apple cider with those cinnamon sticks, cloves optional and it's even an acceptable holiday drink for people young and old.
Maple Syrup
Maple syrup isn't only for pancakes, it’s also an underdog when it comes to fall cocktails. The result is a thick sweetness with helps give depth and complexity to whiskey, bourbon and even dark rum; One such example is the maple syrup old fashioned, which puts an autumn spin on a classic cocktail with top notes of smooth and sweet and finishes with warmth and smoke, making it a perfect pair for this season. Pair a bottle of the good stuff with your favorite whiskey for your go-to guy to throw in his tool belt at the office (or unmarked backpack when hitting up the pumpkin patch), and be well on your way to gifting seasonal cocktails this fall.
Cozy and Inviting Gifts
Hot Toddy Kits
In the fall, nothing is more nostalgic than a hot toddy. There is something about this warm concoction of water, honey, lemon and a shot of whiskey or rum that screams comfort on cold nights. For the thoughtful gift giver, now is the perfect time to make personalized hot toddy kits with a variety of spices (think cinnamon sticks, cloves), good tea, and some quality hooch. Not only are these kits useful, they also give the recipient a little something extra to keep them warm and in good spirits through winter.
Cozy Blankets and Mugs
What brings the experience to the next level is when you top it off with a collection of cozy accessories as well. Add a fluffy blanket and a beautifully designed mug to your gift set for an entire fall evening. All these touches contribute to a snug and desirable ambiance for your dear ones, who are having their hot chocolate, warm toddy or pumpkin spice drink.
Infused Spirits
For a special touch, make infused spirits as gifts. For a more intimate present, utilizing the autumn spices such as cinnamon, nutmeg, or ginger to infuse vodka, rum or whiskey is something exceptional. It works like this: pour the herbs of your choice into a bottle of alcohol and leave for two days. They are perfect to use in a lot of autumn cocktails as base ingredients and will put any curious drink lovers on your gift list to the test.
