A coffee gift basket is a perfect Christmas gift for the coffee lover on your list!

Coffee is enjoyed as a regular beverage by billions – yes, billions of people, around the world. During the Christmas season, there's many a pot of coffee brewed! However, as we all know, good coffee has become somewhat of a luxury. At the same time, just in the last year or so, the big coffee manufacturers have finally started coming to the market with 'designer' blends, as well as featuring 100% Arabica beans, which makes a truly superior cup of Joe. Now, you can pick up some gourmet coffees right at the supermarket, at fairly reasonable prices. The gourmet coffee shops can be rather pricey, but the supermarket gourmet choices provide the gourmet without the prohibitive cost. Now, a coffee gift basket is an affordable, useful and thoughtful Christmas gift for those coffee lovers on your list.

A coffee gift basket, while being easy to purchase and assemble, also reduces the time you might spend searching for that perfect gift at the mall, navigating the crowds and finding a parking spot.

Start on your next weekly shopping trip – because these coffees are vacuum packed, this gift can be a 'do-ahead'. The coffee will be fresh and tasty for the Christmas season. Each time you shop, browse the coffee aisle for the latest additions to the coffee lineup. Check out the organically grown and 'fair trade' brands for some special finds for your coffee gift basket. Flavored coffees, such as Hazelnut, crème Brulee, cinnamon and Pumpkin Spice, among many others, are all the rage now for a special treat for the coffee lover, fitting in nicely with holiday meals.

When you've collected an assortment, examine your budget and think of coffee accessories, such as mugs, reusable gold mesh screen filters, coffee grinders and travel mugs that will add some extra charm to your coffee gift. This gift is one that suits any budget, as you can adjust the quantities and items to what you can afford. Just a single bag of a gourmet coffee and a mug makes a terrific gift and costs just $10 or so!

Once you've got the contents of your coffee gift basket, you're ready to buy a basket to accommodate the goodies. Crafts shops are good sources for unusual baskets. You can also find some great baskets at your local dime store. Wrap it up in cellophane, or simply tie a bit of festive ribbon to the basket and you're all set.

You can see that your Christmas coffee gift will be a hit with every coffee drinker you know!
