Whether you’re looking for the best gifts for coffee lovers or something special for the tea lover in your life you’ll definitely find something to love in this gift guide for coffee and tea aficionados! This is week 4 of our Restless Chipotle holiday gift guide series and yes, there will be another giveaway – something I think you’ll love as much as I do.
Everyone loves coffee except the people who love tea, right? It’s almost like someone being either a cat person or a dog person – and then there are those like me who love both. It can be hard to decide exactly what to buy because not only are there numerous possibilities but there is a vast difference in price from one thing to another.
I’ve tried to choose things to cover all your bases from inexpensive to super extravagant. I’ll break this up evenly – five for coffee and five for tea.

Best Gifts for Coffee Lovers
I will drink either good coffee or good tea. I prefer coffee in the morning and tea in the afternoon, with a preference for Earl Grey Creme if I get a choice. I drink coffee because it wakes me up – I don’t particularly care if it’s in a pretty cup or a thermos as long as it’s hot and caffeinated. Tea is a little different – I prefer a high quality, loose leaf tea preferably served in a pretty china cup with a lemon slice floating on the top and a cookie on the side. It’s an entirely different mindset.
Let’s start with my thoughts on the best gifts for coffee lovers. What do you think? Agree or disagree with my choices?
Ninja Barista Coffee System
I actually got one of these Coffee Systems from Ninja last December and wrote a post about the Barista Coffee System. It has held up well to our excessive coffee consumption and I’ve enjoyed my lattes and cappuccinos, which you know if you’ve been following me on my Instagram stories! It is on sale as of this writing (November 29,2017) and definitely a special gift for a special coffee lover! This is the least expensive one that I’ve seen anywhere.
Travel Mug with Temperature Gauge
If you have someone who loves retro (me!) or goes bonkers over Steampunk (also me!) this is the coffee mug for you. It’s got a handy-dandy temperature gauge on it AND it’s red. Plugs into the car’s cigarette lighter and will even heat your cold coffee up for you – up to 180F!
Hand Warmer Mug
For the crazy cat lady in all of us! This cute cat hand-warmer mug has a special pocket to keep your hand warm as you hold your coffee! I don’t know about you but my hands are ice all winter long and this would be great. There are a couple of other designs for those of you who aren’t fans of cats.
French Press
After breaking several glass French Press coffee makers I finally got a stainless steel one. I will never go back to glass. It makes a perfect cup of coffee or six AND it’s not going to break. YAY! I chose this one for my best gifts for coffee lovers guide because…. it’s Restless Chipotle red, y’all.
Milk Frother
Perfect for slipping into a stocking on Christmas Eve! This milk frother creates foamed milk for the top of your latte in seconds!

Best Gifts for Tea Lovers
Tea is special and the gifts are little different from the best gifts for coffee lovers. Tea is spring and coffee is fall. That leaves vodka for summer and hot chocolate for winter – I’m nothing if not well rounded in my tastes.
Cast Iron Tea Pot
This beautiful, cast iron tea pot has a traditional Japanese dragonfly decoration on it which symbolizes new beginnings and good fortune. I got a similar one for my daughter several years ago and it’s still beautiful.
Tea For Two
Be ready for any adventure with everything you need for a quick cup of tea! I love this portable tea set that comes with a tea pot, tea infuser, and two cups in a carrying case.
Tea Maker for Tea Perfectionists
Serious about tea? Make the perfect cup with this iTEA boil to brew system. It has 3 brew settings plus temperature settings for all types of tea!
Cat Tea Mug with Infuser
OMG so cute! Brew loose leaf tea right in this adorable cat mug with the fish infuser. Another one for the crazy cat ladies in your life!
Celtic Claddagh Tea for One
I love the little tea for one sets with the teapot that rests on the cup. I was looking at a Royal Albert tea for one set that goes with the china pattern I’m eyeing but when I saw this I thought of a good friend of mine who can actually TALK Gaelic (self taught, too!) and I couldn’t resist adding it to the list!

I think will go perfectly in my little office, so I can sit and write my books without having to venture out into the dreaded, treat-filled kitchen for coffee!
Christian Alejandro
It would be my first keurig. I like the idea of brewing a quick cup instead of a pot.
Buddy Garrett
My wife needs this coffeemaker. She starts her day with a cup of coffee in the morning.
