DIY cocktails and spirit tasting kits for a virtual boozy birthday bash
This year might mean the pubs, bars and nightclubs are no-go-zone for a boozy birthday bash. But, fear not, as we have plenty of intoxicating options up our sleeves for a virtual birthday party you won’t forget.
If you have a friend, family member or partner who likes to get creative with their tipples, a virtual cocktail making class is quite possibly one of the best birthday gift experiences around. With a cocktail kit too, they won’t even have to leave their cosy home to shake, muddle and stir the night away.
If sipping is more their style than shaking, our spirit tasting online classes are a delicious choice. From a virtual gin tasting and distillery tour to an artisan craft spirit tasting kit to a whisky virtual experience where they can finally learn the difference between Scotch Whisky and American Whiskey (and of course, taste a wee dram or two).
So, if you’re looking for fun things to do at home with them to shake up their lockdown birthday, or if you simply want a unique gift experience to wow them with - our alcoholic options are sure to liven their evening and their taste buds!
Give them a relaxing afternoon of pottery at home with DIY kit and class
If you know someone who is super crafty or artistic and want to treat them to some artsy activity gifts for their birthday, we think they will love one of our pottery at home kits - perfect for people who love filling their time by finding crafty things to make at home! We have a variety of DIY craft kits available when it comes to getting messy with clay, from making your own clay planters to a DIY pottery candle holder kit. Most pottery kits come complete with an online class, so your lucky gift receiver can learn exactly how to make the perfect ceramic pieces. Trying some pottery at home is also a great way to relax, so if you know some hard workers or busy-bees who could do with a soothing break, a pottery starter kit and virtual class could be an ideal birthday present for them. With a creative and relaxing gift experience such as this, they’ll be so grateful for the opportunity to simply switch off, relax and create something beautiful!
