HAUS SAMPLER KIT - $50
These good-looking, low-profile bottles blend seamlessly into any living room style. Haus apéritifs are a modern take on an old classic, with a low ABV and multiple blends you’re sure to please any crowd. You can customize your sampler box to suit any season or celebration vibe you’re going for. According to the company their apéritifs have the “complexity of a cocktail, but are low enough in alcohol content (stronger than wine, lighter than whiskey) that you can enjoy them in a cocktail, without the consequences.”
MONDAY ZERO ALCOHOL GIN - $39
If you dream of parties with Great Gatsby vibes minus the hangover, this bottle of zero alcohol gin is an art deco dream with its bold label and gold accents. The concept behind Monday Zero Alcohol Gin is one many can get behind, “Monday is committed to giving ‘alcohol avoiders’ an option to enjoy a proper cocktail without worrying about how they’ll feel the next day.”
TEN TO ONE DARK RUM- $49
Ten to One arrives in a sleek glass bottle with a classic wooden closure. The label has clean lines and a gold seal that evokes a high-end whiskey vibe. The packaging gives off a polished aesthetic without any stuffiness. As stated on their website, these are not your spring break rums. Ten to One intends to reimagine rum as the high-end spirit it is meant to be.
NGUYEN COFFEE SUPPLY - From $15
This is an artisanal coffee everyone can feel good about craving and is sure to please. Beyond the minimal design and color block packaging, you have a women-owned brand committed to integrity, transparency, and sustainability. Working directly with sustainable producers in Vietnam, Nguyen Coffee Supply sources the best arabica and robusta beans and roasts them right in Brooklyn, NY. They also have the stylish filter for your pour-over coffee aficionados, making this the perfect addition to these fleeting summer mornings.

HANA MAKGEOLLI - From $14
Want to bring something truly unique to the table? Give Hana Hana Makgeolli, a Korean fermented rice wine, a try.
