This summer, make sure to spend time with friends and family so you can capture those special moments you will look back on and cherish forever.

1. Cheers, Babe

The first step to enjoying summer is spending time with your friends. This is the perfect opportunity to give your friends a party in a box that you guys can share by the pool. What’s cooler than sitting around the pool with delectable chocolate, some Bubbly Bears by Sugarfina, and a nice glass of Riesling?

So, if you're hunting down summer-themed gifts for your best friend, give her a Cheers, Babe!

 

2. Afternoon Tea Gift Box

Summertime is such a fun season, but it can be hard to find the motivation to go outside and enjoy the sunshine when you're cooped up inside. That's where afternoon tea comes in. A traditional afternoon tea's warm and inviting atmosphere gives you the perfect opportunity to escape the office, relax, and enjoy the warm weather. Rather than buying a random gift that they’ll probably never use, treat your loved one to an afternoon tea experience.

Afternoon Tea Present Box provides everything your loved one needs to prepare a cup of tea in the morning. If you're looking for fun summer gifts, give them a unique gift box that will bring a smile to their faces.

 

3. Hug in a Box

Summer is approaching, and people are already planning their pool parties and beach vacations. When you're not feeling the heat, there's nothing better than taking a cool, sweet sip of something refreshing, and Hug in a Box has everything to accommodate you!

Whether you're headed to the beach or just want to enjoy a treat in the backyard, Mini Raspberry + Tea Chocolates are the perfect sweet treat to cool down on a hot day. Since these chocolates are so small and portable, you can pack them for your trip or keep them in your purse for a quick snack.

 

4. The Gentleman

Are you looking for a unique summer gift for the man in your life? What better way to celebrate him than by giving him a gift he won't forget? To help you shop for the man who has everything, we've put together a selection of The Gentleman's signature summer gift sets. Each collection is hand-picked to inspire, surprise, and thrill him. 

These gourmet treats are a definite bet if you're shopping for the best summer gifts. He'll fall in love with the savory snacks, superb coffee, and great black porter tumbler!

 

5. Lavender Dreams

Are you looking for the perfect summer birthday gifts for a woman who appreciates tranquility? Then delight her with Lavender Dreams!

This fragrance transports you to the countryside's purple fields with a single spray. The birthday girl will adore Lavender, also known as "blue gold," because of the stunning beauty it exudes.

Just a few drops of this robust, high-performing fragrance will provide a burst of sweet and calming freshness. Spicy, peppery, and herbaceous notes are typical, as are balsamic, flowery, and wood undertones. Although it’s floral, it has a broader range of applications than more traditional flowers like rose and jasmine. When used as an ingredient, it reveals new aroma qualities, opening the door to many variations.

 

6. Suit & Tie 

Just because it's summer doesn't mean that your summer gifts can't come with a touch of elegance. 

If you're shopping for a modern gentleman, the Suit & Tie gift box is the perfect collection of carefully selected grooming products and accessories that he didn’t know he needed. After all, Bergamot & Grapefruit Bar Soap is one of the best summer gifts you can get. But, you don't want to get just any bar soap — you want the perfect soap for the perfect occasion. Old Whaling Co is the right choice. You'll find the best soap for your skin and the best solution for your soap needs. Additionally, the list pad included in this summer gift set is the ideal size for jotting down short notes on the go.

 

7. Happy Hour

This summer, give your friends a unique drink to wet their palettes: a Moscow Mule.

It's a cocktail made of ginger beer, vodka, and lime juice. If that isn't enough, it's typically served in copper mugs. Copper mugs are an excellent choice to preserve the drink's coolness during the hottest months, making a Moscow Mule the perfect summertime cocktail.

The copper mugs that Moscow Mules come in are known for their refreshing taste. Copper has a high heat conductivity, as you may have guessed. After mixing the ingredients in the copper mug, the heat from the mixture is expelled, and the cup turns exceptionally cold. Because the cup warms up so rapidly, the sense of coldness is heightened. Copper can keep your drink colder for a longer amount of time than a glass tumbler.

 

8. Self Care

Summer is the perfect time to relax and focus on self-care. This package of delightful summer gifts will leave you and your loved ones feeling revived, invigorated, and ready to face the world. 

The summer presents inside the Self Care box are filled with everything you need. A rose quartz face roller is the perfect way to relax and pamper yourself. It is also an excellent tool for both internal and external beauty. It's been a beauty routine in China since the 7th century when it first appeared. Through moderate massage, it helps to tighten the skin's appearance. Best yet, rose quartz is said to be a stone of love because of its association with the heart chakra, so you're not only improving your skin but also your soul.

9. Recover

Is there anything worse than a summer cold?

You sludged through a chilly winter and wet spring, hoping to finally get some time in the sun when a summer cold hits.

If someone you love comes down with the sniffles, help them get better by giving them a recovery basket that includes candles, socks, and tea. These summer gifts are the best way to give your loved ones the strength to get back on their feet. Rishi Elderberry Healer's Tea is included in this gift basket.  This calming botanical combination's rich, cordial-like flavor will give them the boost they need. As a traditional folk remedy, elderberry has been used for centuries. The blend of ginger and hibiscus provides a warming sensation and bolsters the drink. The natural sweetness comes from licorice root and grapefruit essential oil, which adds a lovely vibrancy to the aftertaste.

 

10. Magnolia

Who doesn’t love magnolias? This year, give one of the best summer gifts for her, featuring one of the sweetest, nostalgic scents. Remind her that she deserves to relax and that you're here to help her do just that. 

Rose tulsi herbal tea, a sea salt candle, and handcrafted magnolia soap are all included in this gift set. Let her enjoy a soothing bath with a sage candle and a soap embodied by a floral bouquet of magnolias and peonies. This classic aroma has a strong floral scent that will bring them back to sunny days on the southern shore.

 

11. Love You So Matcha

The best gifts are tailored to the person you're buying for, which is especially true for gifts for the summer. While you may initially think of purchasing sunglasses or gadgets for your loved one, why not take your gift-giving up a notch? Consider getting them a box of matcha. 

Matcha is a stone-ground whole-leaf tea, unlike conventional green tea, which is processed. As a result, you get a tasty superfood packed with nourishment. There are few things better than a refreshing matcha drink on a hot summer day. The Love You So Matcha gift set includes a matcha latte mix that can be served cold, barista style. Sweet, matcha-infused white chocolate sourced from Japan and a calming matcha clay mask are also included in this beautiful summer gift set.

 

12. Breakfast in Bed

A thoughtful and romantic gift for a loved one's birthday or anniversary, breakfast in bed is ideal for showing how much you care. Most people don't have time to make a hearty breakfast and bring it into the bedroom in today's fast-paced world. With this gift, you have the opportunity to bring this sweet tradition back. 

Treat them to a Breakfast in Bed gift set instead, including fluffy buttermilk pancakes, piping-hot espresso, and tangy strawberry lemongrass jam.

 

13. Sending Sunshine

If your family and friends need a little more sun this summer, you can give them a little extra with the Sending Sunshine box set. 

Sending Sunshine is the best way to show you care while also giving a gift that makes them feel special. This summer, give a personal and unique gift and gives them a sense of warmth only love can bring!
