Updated October 2026

Gin lovers are easy to spot: they have opinions about tonic, a garnish for every mood and a favourite glass they guard at parties. That makes them hard to buy for, because they already own the glasses and the bottles. This guide is about gifts for gin lovers that feel personal and last: word art prints built from their own name, their go-to gin and the phrases they say at every catch-up. It’s part of our wider guide to gifts for wine lovers and other drinks fans, and every idea below comes in under £35.

What is the best personalised gift for a gin lover?

Start with the Personalised Gin Lover print. The design is shaped around a gin glass rather than a generic drinks icon, and it’s built entirely from words you choose. You type them in, watch the design build in real time and check a free preview before you pay anything.

Who it suits: the friend whose order is always a G&T, the sister who has tried every pink gin going, the dad who keeps a shelf of small-batch bottles, or the colleague who organised the office gin tasting.

What words to put on it: their name, their favourite gin, the tonic they swear by, a garnish or two (lime, cucumber, pink grapefruit, rosemary), and the phrases heard at every catch-up, such as “gin o’clock”, “just one more” and “cheers”.

It’s available as a digital download from £9.99, which arrives instantly, as an unframed print on 200gsm card, or framed in A4 (£22.99) or A3 (£30.99) with a white mount. A3 framed works as a centrepiece in a hallway or living room; A4 suits a shelf, a desk or a home bar corner.

What are the best Christmas gifts for gin lovers?

Gin sets, glasses and bottles are everywhere at Christmas, and they blur together under the tree. A gin print stands out because it can only be for one person.

• For a best friend: fill the Gin Lover print with the bars you go to, the nicknames you use and the toast you always make.
• For a parent: mix their favourite gin and garnish with family names and the phrase they say when they pour the first one of the evening.
• For Secret Santa: the £9.99 digital download fits most budgets and arrives instantly. Print it and slip it into a card, or pop it in an inexpensive frame.

If you’re ordering a framed print for Christmas, leave enough time: the product page says unframed and framed prints take 3–5 working days.

What should I get a gin lover for their birthday?

A birthday is the time to make it all about them. The Gin Lover print works well because you can blend gin words with personal ones: their name, where they grew up, the friends who come round, and the gin you shared on a memorable night. Add “happy birthday” and the year if you’d like it to mark the occasion.

If the birthday is a big celebration where a toast is the main event, the Champagne glass and bottle print is a good alternative. Build it from the date, the venue, the guest list and the toast, then add gin to the word list so it still feels like them.

What gin gift can I give my mum?

Plenty of mums have a gin ritual, whether it’s a Friday G&T or a glass in the garden on the first warm evening. The Gin Lover print is a lovely way to celebrate that for Christmas, Mother’s Day or her birthday. Fill it with “Mum”, her name, her favourite gin, the garnish she always picks and the phrase she says when she sits down at last.

If you’d like the gift to be about the two of you, the Mum & Daughter print is built in the same way. Add the drinks you’ve shared, the places you go together and your in-jokes, and gin can be part of the story without being the whole of it.

What about a gin gift for a partner or a couple?

For a partner, build the Gin Lover print from your story together: the bar where you had your first date, the gin you ordered and the holiday where you found a new favourite. For a more romantic shape, the Love Heart print puts gin words alongside both names and the date you met.

Is a gin print a good housewarming gift?

A bottle of gin is a popular housewarming gift and it’s perfect for the first night in. Pair it with a framed Gin Lover print for the new kitchen or home bar and you’ve covered the toast and the keepsake. Add the new street name, the move-in date and “first G&T in the new house” to the word list.

If you’d rather the home itself was the shape, the House print is built from words in the same way. Fill it with everyone’s names, the address and the things that make it home, and slip their favourite gin in among them.

What if they love fizz, wine or tea as well as gin?

Most gin lovers have a second favourite. For someone who switches to red on a Sunday, the Wine Lover print is shaped like a wine glass and works exactly the same way. For the person who starts the day with a brew and ends it with a G&T, the Cup of Tea print is a nice morning companion. If coffee is their morning drink instead, our guide to gifts for coffee lovers has more ideas.

What words to put on a gin lover print

The words are what make the print theirs, and they’re where most people get stuck. A good list mixes three things: who they are (names and nicknames), what they drink (gin, tonic, garnish, glass) and the moments behind it (places, people, catchphrases). Here are two lists you can copy and adapt.

Example 1: for a best friend

• Her name and the nickname only you use
• Pink gin, elderflower tonic, raspberries, a copa glass
• The bar you always end up in, the holiday where you discovered rhubarb gin
• “Gin o’clock”, “just one more”, “same again?”, “Friday feeling”
• The girls, book club, the group chat name

Example 2: for a gin-loving dad

• Dad, Grandad, his first name
• London dry, Indian tonic, lime, juniper, a big ice cube
• The garden, the barbecue, the distillery tour you went on together
• “Only a small one”, “cheers”, “who’s driving?”
• The names of everyone round the table on a Sunday

How it works

2. Type your own words. Add names, gins, garnishes, places and phrases. The design builds in real time as you type.
3. See a free preview. Check how it looks before paying anything, and tweak the words until you’re happy.
4. Choose your format. Pick an instant digital download from £9.99 to print yourself, or a printed or framed print delivered to your door.

Frequently asked questions

What is a good gift for a gin lover who has everything?

Someone with a full drinks cabinet and every kind of tonic rarely has something made from their own words. A personalised Gin Lover word art print builds the shape of a gin glass from their name, favourite gin, garnishes and the phrases they always say, so no two are the same. It stays on the wall long after the bottle is finished.

How much does a personalised gin print cost?

Digital downloads start from £9.99 and arrive instantly, ready to print at home or at a local print shop. Framed prints with a white mount are £22.99 for A4 and £30.99 for A3. You can see a free preview of your design before paying anything.

How long does a framed gin print take to arrive?

The Gin Lover product page says unframed and framed prints take 3–5 working days. If you are short on time for Christmas or a birthday, the digital download arrives instantly and can be printed the same day.

What words should I put on a gin lover print?

Start with their name, then add their favourite gin, the tonic and garnish they always ask for, and the phrases heard at every catch-up, such as “gin o’clock” or “just one more”. Adding places, friends’ names and in-jokes makes it feel personal rather than generic. A mix of short and longer words helps the glass shape fill nicely.

Is a gin print a good Secret Santa gift?

Yes, especially if you know the person well enough to fill it with their favourite words. The digital download is £9.99 and arrives instantly, which suits most Secret Santa budgets and last-minute shopping. Print it and pop it in a card or a simple frame.

Can I get a matching print for someone who prefers wine or tea?

Yes. The shop has a Wine Lover print, Champagne prints and a Cup of Tea print that all work the same way, built from your own words at the same prices. Two prints side by side make a nice pair for a couple with different favourite drinks.

A final word on gifts for gin lovers

Another bottle will always be welcome, but the gin gifts people keep are the ones that show you’ve paid attention: the garnish they always ask for, the bar where you shared the first one, the phrase they say when the glass is poured. Start with the Gin Lover print, fill it with their words and check the free preview. For more drinks ideas, head back to our main guide to gifts for wine lovers.
