Holiday Spirits
The first company to bring absinthe back to the U.S. is hoping to help you celebrate the holidays. Viridian Spirits is offering its Lucid gift set for $59.99, which includes a 750ml bottle of absinthe, plus customary Lucid glasses - no measuring required - and a slotted spoon for louching. If you're not sure what "louching" means, and want to find out more, check out Lucid on Facebook or follow them on Twitter.
If absinthe isn't your beverage of choice, Kindred Spirits of North America is bringing Sweden's Xante to this side of the Atlantic. The company first introduced the pear infused cognac liqueur in Miami and New York last spring, but now it's available throughout the U.S. Find out where you can buy at bottle at drinkxante.com.
Rodarte & Target To-Go
Coming soon to Target's (TGT) designer collection: Rodarte.
Shoppers will be able to find lace, tulle, sequins and silk transformed with the brand's edgy style at unbeatable prices. Pieces priced between $9.99 and $79.99 will make great stocking stuffers. The full line is due in stores December 20, but shoppers in New York, San Francisco and Washington, DC can get a sneak peek. Target's To-Go shopping events in these three cities let shoppers choose the gifts they want to buy, order by number, and take them away -- wrapped and ready to go.
New York City's To-Go event is on December 11 at Gansevoort and Washington Streets, at the High Line Entrance, starting at 10 a.m. San Francisco's Mint Plaza, on 5th St between Market and Mission Streets, hosts To-Go on December 12, and on December 13, those in Washington DC can visit To-Go at M Street NW and Wisconsin Avenue NW in Georgetown.
