Twisted Liquor

mens holiday gift guide twisted chai & bloody mary

Twisted Path Chai is made with gluten-free vodka, black tea, herbs, spices, and cane sugar. No flavorings, coloring, or preservatives, just real tea, spices, alcohol, and sugar. Mix it with milk or coffee; add it to cocktails to bring an interesting twist to daiquiris, margaritas, gimlets, and tropical drinks; pour it on ice cream… Frankly, we’ve had a hard time finding things it isn’t delicious in.

There is only one perishable ingredient in a bloody mary, tomato juice. So, Twisted Path Distillery wanted to separate it out. All the rest of the ingredients (herbs, spices, salt, vinegar) it put straight in the vodka. The end result is an 80-proof vodka that has all you need in a bloody mary already in it, and you just add it to plain tomato juice. It’s easy, it tastes better, and its shelf stable at room temperature.

The height of Mount Everest was first measured in 1850, but it would not be until the first ever expedition of 1921 before any westerner got closer than 40 miles of the famous peak. “THE HUNT FOR MOUNT EVEREST”  tells the gripping story of the 71-year quest to find the world’s highest mountain, climaxing one June morning in 1921 when two English climbers, George Mallory and Guy Bullock, became the first westerners—and almost certainly the first people—ever to set foot on the mountain.
It is a story of high drama, two disastrous wars, great political and military bungling, larger-than-life characters, a few quiet heroes, hundreds of mules, thousands of camels, and two zebrules—all playing out against a backdrop of the most spectacular geography on earth. Author Craig Storti expertly guides readers to that pivotal moment when the last remaining major prize in the history of exploration was finally claimed.

mens holiday gift guide collar helpers scaled

As anyone with a closetful of button-downs or polo shirts knows, a sloppy collar can ruin an entire look.  Even a brand-new shirt has a creased and wrinkled collar as soon as it’s out of the dryer, and there’s no easy fix.

Ironing is cumbersome, if you even own an iron. And if you do, why spend the time and energy to dig it out?  Your VCR collection probably has less dust. There are some collar fixes, but collar stickers and magnets only treat the front corners and steamers only fix the wrinkles.

Enter Snap Collar, the easy way to treat and fix messy collars. It snaps on easily and will transform his collar into ship shape in no time.

Price: $14.99 each with discounts on multipacks
