Le Moné
$35.00

CItrus has a special superpower of brightening up the darkest, coldest winter nights. Want proof? Try a shot of Le Moné's bright, aromatic aperitif and for a few seconds you'll be standing on the Ligurian coast. While we suggest sipping it chilled and straight, it also works well in spritzes, margaritas, and yes, a retro Lemon Drop.

22 / 23
Goldbelly
$60.00

When the NJ father/son duo behind The Bagel Nook set out to concoct some of the wackiest bagel flavors imaginable, they did a solid job: World, meet the Oreo-stuffed Overloaded Oreo Bagel. If your coworkers could use some whimsy, treat them to a dozen red-and-pink swirled bagels (actually 11 red bagels and one heart-shaped bagel ... that one's for you). And, of course, they ship the schmears, too. Add a tub of Maple Bacon, Birthday Cake, or Jalapeño Cheddar and be the office sweetheart.

23 / 23
Pineapple Collaborative
$64.00

The internet flipped out a while back when the Pineapple Collaborative introduced its Apple Cider Vinegar (it had a waitlist of 1,000+!). Now the retailer is bundling the vinegar with its best-selling Olive Oil to make any day-to-day dish feel like so much more. The pair will also make your pantry a little more stylish with its minimalistic bottles that come in a variety of colors that will make you happy as they peek out of the cabinet.
