Best Mother’s Day gifts to lift her spirits

It’s that time of year where we celebrate all things wonderful about our mums especially after the past year we’ve had. With the current lockdown restrictions a pampering day is out of the question. So, what kind of gift do you get for the Wonder Woman you (or your kids) call Mum? Whether she’s into Gin, Prosecco, Champagne or perhaps something non-alcoholic, save yourself some stress and get it delivered to her door, anywhere in the UK.

Be the perfect angel: Whisper Angel Rosé £18.99

This Mother’s Day, she’ll hear nothing but the whispering of her little angels while she enjoys her Whispering Angel Rosé. Clever word play aside, Whisper Angel Rosé is cram-packed with fruity flavours, reasonably priced, and the perfect shade of pink for a Spring celebration like Mother’s Day. Get her rosé all Mother’s Day, she deserves it.

 

For the “non-alcoholic” mum: Seedlip £19.99

The world’s first distilled non-alcoholic spirit, Seedlip is the perfect alternative for those looking to gift mum something unique. Seedlip is available in three individual and complex blends including Spice 94, Garden 108 and Grove 42. The non-alcoholic spirit is a welcome alternative to boozier tipples and is the perfect accompaniment to tonics and sodas or swirled through cocktails in highball glasses. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 


And if you’re planning a Mother’s day picnic, why not try “Seedlip on the Go” with a premixed alcohol-free G&T tonic. The range consists of 3 different flavours; 

Seedlip Grove 42 with Lemongrass Tonic, Seedlip Spice 94 with Grapefruit Tonic, and Seedlip Garden 108 with Cucumber Tonic.

 

 

Showing she’s worth the effort: Lanson Rose Champagne £34.99

If you really want to show your mum just how much she means to you- one sip of Lanson Rose Champagne will do that. This fruity bottle of bubbly is an absolute treat, pretty pale pink with a rose aroma and fresh finish, it's perfect to sip and relax. 

 

 

 

 

The name says it all: MOM GIN £25.99

Name a more suitably named gin for Mother’s Day, we’ll wait… It has your mum’s name written all over it. Not only that, but it’s also delicious, infused with strawberries and exotic botanical ingredients, a premium pink gin that’s (and we cannot stress this enough) designed for your mum.

 

Bake it with Baileys: Baileys Irish Cream Liqueur £19.99

A favourite for Mother’s day - this classic Irish cream Liqueur is a perfect addition to any hot drink, make several classic cocktails or why not treat her to a delicious Bailey’s filled dessert? 

Bailey’s chocolate mousse recipe

Melt 1 cup of chopped dark chocolate, allow to cool slightly then beat in the egg yolks of 2 medium eggs and 1 tsp of butter. Lightly whip 1 cup of double cream and 7oz of Baileys. Then fold half into the chocolate mix. Whisk the egg whites until just stiff, now fold with the chocolate mixture. Add pieces of chocolate until it melts. Spoon half the chocolate mousse into four glasses, followed by some chocolate shavings and then half the cream. Repeat the layers and top with the remaining chocolate shavings. Put it in the fridge for three hours. No picking! (well, maybe just a bit…) Serve with a flourish – to some impressed oohs and ahs
