Every year is a challenge for me to find a gift for my son for Christmas. I usually find the perfect gift on Amazon. This machine makes 6 different drinks using pods. It comes with two glass bottles to hold the alcohol. You just put in a pod, push a button and voila! You have espresso martinis, margaritas, cosmos, etc. Although we haven't opened it yet and tried it out, I have no doubt that this will be a big hit. The pods are a bit pricey, and the extra bottles are also, but they are glass and of good quality. If you have someone on your list who enjoys a cocktail and who is a challenge to buy for, this is the perfect gift.
