Christmas Gift Guide - Choosing Glasses for Gin Lovers

Gin Glasses - the pink lustre from sunny by sue We have a growing collection of glasses for gin lovers because the nation’s love of gin is here to stay and everyone likes to drink it in their particular way. Whether you are a fan of the balloon gin glasses, the copa gin glasses or a traditional highball! Take a look at our gin glasses gift guide and choose wisely. There are four key choices when it comes to drinking gin:
  1. What mixer are you using?
  2. What gin are you selecting?
  3. What glass will you enjoy it in?
  4. How will you garnish it?
There are tons of mixers but for most gin drinkers it comes down to one thriving debate: tonic or lemonade? If you drink it with tonic the prospect of lemonade is stomach-churning and if you drink it with lemonade the thought of tonic is sacrilegious. There is no compromise on this one. So sticking to your respective channels there are plenty of flavours in camp tonic and camp lemonade. There is a world of rebellion out there for gin drinkers though so have you considered trying these mixers?
  • Bitter lemon
  • Soda water
  • Cranberry juice
  • Fizzy elderflower
  • Irn bru
  • Ginger beer
  • Coca-cola
The cranberry juice and coca-cola here, in particular, offend my palette. But, if you have got through the 20 different tonic accompaniers perhaps they might tickle your fancy. What gin will you select to go with which mixer? The exact number of gin flavours out there is a mystery because more crop up each week. The Gin Kin have rounded up 50 of the best flavoured gins to try in your lifetime. Now you have your gin ready and the right mixer, what you need is the right glass. So how do you drink your gin? Here are our top ten sellers. To shop for gin glasses check out our wide collection. Whether you opt for:
