UncommonGoods Holiday Gift Ideas for Food & Drink Lovers

Hello, hello!

We’re less than three weeks away from both Christmas and Hanukkah, are you all ready??

The holiday season is my favorite time of the year! My Christmas tree, outdoor lights and decor are now all up, and I’ve been playing Sirius’ Christmas stations in my car nonstop. I can’t wait to do some holiday baking to share with family, friends & neighbors, and I’m planning on visiting a popular Christmas light extravaganza area that a friend told me about called Candy Cane Court next weekend. It’s all so fun & festive!

I’ve also been doing a ton of holiday shopping. I look forward to giving my loved ones gifts every Christmas, and I sometimes turn to unique gift giving sites for some inspiration and ideas. One catalog that really caught my eye this holiday season was the one I received from UncommonGoods. Flipping through it, I found so many products that made me say, ooooh and aaaahhhh because they’re right up my alley.

Shortly after, UncommonGoods happened to reach out about working together (what a perfect fit right?), so today we’re teaming up to share gift ideas for the foodies & drink lovers in your life. Admittedly, I pretty much want all of these products for myself (hint hint to any loved ones reading this who are looking for a gift idea for me 😉 ), because they’ve got lots of gifts for women that enjoy experimenting in the kitchen like I do.

Besides the fact that their products are so neat, UncommonGoods is an awesome brand because of its dedication to being environmentally friendly and socially responsible. Their site features products that contain recycled components, and they’ve never sold products containing leather, feathers or fur – which I find great because I really have been avoiding buying leather in recent years.

The brand also believes in giving back, and since creating a donation program in 2001, they’ve donated over $1 million to non-profits. You can learn more about UncommonGoods’ mission here. Let’s check out some cool gift ideas!

Row Boat Serving Bowl with Wood Serving Utensils. Many foodies, myself included, are suckers for fun and unique serving dishes – and this row boat serving bowl definitely fits the bill! This is an especially fitting gift for any coastal people/boat & water lovers. Retails @ $65. 

Twist Decanter. This product puts a twist on a classic decanter (literally!) and is a neat gift idea for the wine lover in your life. I just love the look of this decanter! Retails @ $29.99-49.99. 

Green Herbal Tea Kit. As a tea lover, I know that I’d enjoy getting this tea kit as a gift! This holistic tea set includes nine herbs and three varieties of eco-certified, organic green tea from Japan, India, and Sri Lanka. It comes with reusable tea bags to steep the loose leaf teas and herbs in. Retails @ $40.

Mariner Cheese Board. Who else adores a good cheese plate? I could happily eat cheese, fruit and bread for dinner every other night. This nautical cheese board is shaped like a ship’s wheel, making it a unique centerpiece for your next wine & cheese night. Retails @ $32.

Soups & Sides Bowl. Usually when I eat soup, I like to have crackers or bread on the side for carbolicious dipping… which means I usually have to have a soup bowl, along with a separate plate or bowl. This soups & sides bowl multitasks by offering space for your soup, as well as your dippers. Retails @ $32. 

Moscow Mule Carry-On Cocktail Kit. This idea is for the travel lover in your life who enjoys a good drink. The kit includes all you need to make two craft cocktails during a flight: small-batch ginger syrup, a stainless steel jigger, linen cocktail napkin, mini bar spoon, and recipe card. Just order a mini bottle of vodka & you’re all set! UncommonGoods also sells champagne, Gin & Tonic, and Old Fashioned kits. Retails @ $24.

Weiner Dog Oil & Vinegar Set….They’re shaped like weiner dogs, need I say more?! Retails @ $30.  

Make Your Own Chocolate Truffles Kit. UncommonGoods offers lot of cute DIY kits, and one item is their Make Your Own Chocolate Truffles Kit. I think this gift is fun to give to friends and family members that like to experiment in the kitchen, or your significant other for an at-home chocolate making date. Retails @ $34.95. 

Pineapple Tumbler. I dig the tropical feel of this pineapple tumbler. It can be used for cocktails or even frozen dessert, and the pineapple lid can be flipped over to serve as a base to add height to the tumbler. Retails @ $35. 

Pizza Grow Kit. Last but not least, an inexpensive gift idea for the gardening pizza lover in your life! This grow kit includes heirloom seed packets to sprout fresh toppings for a veggie pizza, like basil, tomatoes and bell peppers. Retails @ $12.

And since I know that sometimes my parents are tough to shop for and I certainly can’t be the only one, you can also check out UncommonGoods gift ideas for mom here, and also surf their collection of unique gifts for dad.

Happy holiday shopping everyone! 

Tell me.. What’s one of the most unique kitchen gifts you’ve ever gotten? 

My father-in-law made me this cool wine stopper box last Christmas that I keep on my kitchen wine wall with all of my wine glasses.
