Gin Gift Sets

Whether you're a gin aficionado or a curious newbie, you’re bound to find a gin set that you’ll love in our delicious selection of fancy gins and beautiful cocktail-making packages. 

Our gin gift sets are perfect for shakin’ up your gift game and giving someone a present that will truly come to be useful once you’ve handed it over. 

The best thing about our cocktail-making kits is that they can be enjoyed alone or used as an excuse to get everyone together and enjoy a fun cocktail night at home. 

Each crate is designed to make cocktail making easy and fun, with carefully chosen ingredients that help create brilliant gin-based serves without the effort of hunting down every bottle, mixer, and syrup separately.

That way, you can just enjoy the actual bar-tending part! Our sets are great for Christmas, birthdays, or just a way to show a loved one that you thought of them. Plus, they don’t have to be a cocktail genius to get stuck in; all our sets are beginner-friendly. 

From berry-bright Brambles to bold Negronis, zingy spritzes and sophisticated Martinis, these gin gift sets are perfect for anyone who believes the best gifts come poured over ice.

Why gin gift sets make the perfect present

Since gin is so versatile, it’s a great gift set for when you don’t know what the person you’re buying for likes. 

It can be crisp, citrussy, fruity, floral, herbal, punchy, or wonderfully bittersweet, so one of our sets is bound to be right up your alley.

Plus, instead of gifting someone a bottle of alcohol and calling it a day, you’re providing someone with an experience and memories that will last forever. The best part? There’s no complicated setup needed.

Our Gin cocktail recipes remove the guesswork from home mixology by pairing gin with the ingredients needed to create a tasty result.

Popular gin cocktails and gift sets

Gin is the star of some of the world’s most iconic cocktails, and our collection celebrates that in full Cocktail Crates style.

If you love a bold, bittersweet serve, our Negroni cocktail set is perfect. A timeless, Italian favourite, these mix gin with aromatic flavours for something sophisticated and sharp. 

For Martini fans, our Gibson and Dirty Martini sets provide that confident, savoury edge that feels straight from a bar. If you prefer something fruity and British, our bramble cocktail set is as juicy as it looks, pairing gin with lemon, sugar, and blackberry liqueur for a tart sip.

We also sell fizzy gin and tonic-style gift boxes for those who love refreshing serves with a twist. Think crisp tonics, colourful spritzes, citrus notes, and playful flavour combinations.

The different types of gin: London dry, flavoured, and beyond

Originally derived from juniper berries, gin was first concocted as a medicinal liquor by monks and alchemists across Europe. 

By the 17th century, it was popularised as a tasty spirit by Dutch physician Franciscus Sylvius, helping it turn into the gin we know and love today. 

Since then, gin has continued to adapt and branch out into various styles, all offering something for palates of all kinds. One of the classic cocktail workhorses is London gin: crisp, juniper-led, and beautifully balanced, often with citrus peel, spice, and herbal notes.

It has that clean, dry style that works brilliantly in Martinis, G&Ts, and Negronis, which is why it’s such a classic. Then we have flavoured gins that add dimension to a cocktail, like blackberry, raspberry, citrus, elderflower, rhubarb, and spiced styles, offering a fruitier, sweeter profile. 

Beyond that, botanical gins and gin liqueur-style ingredients are used for more experimental serves. These create softer, contemporary cocktails when paired with citrus, vermouth, tonic, berries, herbs, bitters, and bubbles.

Gin pairing ideas: mixers and garnishes

If you’ve gone for a classic serve, then start with these mixers: 

• Tonic Water
• Soda Water
• Lemonade

Tonic water brings crisp bitterness and sparkle to the equation, while soda water keeps things light and refreshing, and lemonade adds a sweeter citrus lift so you can keep sipping all night long.

Garnishing is where you can get creative. Mint, basil, rosemary, or thyme can add freshness and aroma for when a cocktail calls for a herby finish, while olives or cocktail onions suit savoury Martini-style drinks.

Orange peel complements a Negroni beautifully while lemon and lime wedges sharpen up citrus-led gins. If you’ve gone for a fruitier gin or bramble, play about with different berries.
