Happy holidays! This festive season, I’m sharing the best drinks gifts for this Christmas, specifically from female-founded drinks organisations. Join me as I take you through my ultimate female-founded Christmas gift guide.
Neurita Tequila
Tequila made specifically for Margaritas – that’s what Neurita’s founder, Lucy Smith, set out to achieve with her core range of quality tequilas. Neurita’s range of tequilas sits at three bottles: Neurita Tequila Blanco Citrus, Neurita Tequila Blanco Rosa, and Neuritua Tequila Blanco Picante.
Their citrus tequila is an award-winning bottle with natural Sicilian orange and tangerine extracts, giving it its signature citrus flavours. Neurita’s rosa tequila is a naturally pink tequila made with sweet raspberry, strawberry and pomegranate extracts. Their final, and newest, addition to the core range is their picante tequila. This bottle is infused with Scotch Bonnet, green chilli, and tangerine, giving it a spicy citrus flavour perfect for spicy margaritas.
Avallen Calvados
Founded by Stephanie Jordan Balmforth and Tim Etherington-Judge, Avallen Spirits is a climate-positive, B Corp company using environmental methods across the organisation. The Calvados spirit itself is completely natural, with no additives or sugar. It’s also aged for 2 years in French oak barrels, giving it its proudly apple-forward flavour profile.
Avallen Spirits has just one type of Calvados available, you can choose your bottle based on what packaging you’d like. On their website, you can find information about the carbon footprint of their packaging options as well as more info on the materials involved in making them. Pick either their glass or paper bottle and enjoy the same fantastic Avallen Calvados this Christmas.
