​Stocking up on miniature spirit bottles

Here at Wares, we are looking forward to a bumper wedding season, especially after a quieter couple of years owing to pandemic restrictions. We've had so many customers getting in touch to enquire about our miniature glass bottles and jars for favours, decorations and gifts, and so we've stocked up on a lovely selection.

It's lovely to know that weddings are now back on the agenda, without restrictions or smaller guest lists. From what we can tell, our customers are ready to go all out and really celebrate their happy occasions, and many of them want to do this with plenty of personalisation, from their choice of hand-tied bouquets to hand-made favours, as well as decorations for the tables. What better way to create an absolutely beautiful and memorable wedding than by doing the fun bits yourself.

With that in mind, we recommend checking out our bottles and jars for inspiration. The beautiful little minis are perfect for creating quirky favours and gifts for the table, and handy brides and grooms can make some really wonderful things at a fraction of the price compared to buying ready-made.

Our top-selling miniature whisky bottles

One of our best selling range of miniature spirit bottles is our miniature whisky bottles, which are ideal for wedding favours with a twist. Perhaps some of your family or wedding group are known for their love of artisan whiskies, in which case why stick with just the one bottle of each when you could decant a series of different whiskies into miniature bottles and either gift bag, box or wrap them to create a tasting menu for an evening to remember and a wonderful thank you gift.

Each of the empty glass bottles has a choice of three watertight caps. They each hold a double shot measure of your favourite spirit, whether that's whisky, flavoured vodka or homemade flavoured gin. What could be prettier than a trio of limoncello, raspberry and blood orange vodka or gin creation?

The bottles have straight sides so they can be easily decorated and labelled, and they have been approved by the Food Standards Agency for home and personal use, as well as for commercial use. So they are ideal if you are thinking of setting up a wedding favours business to help busy brides to provide that home-made touch. You can buy these miniature spirit bottles in units of 12 to 5000, and drive down the unit cost the more you buy. One of the reasons that we can now offer these bulk orders is that we recently moved to larger premises in order to offer our customers even better value on their large unit orders - especially for small business customers - and you'll love our service, delivery speed, products and affordable delivery rates.

Preparing the bottles

Simply wash and sterilise the bottles in the oven for ten minutes at 110C. Once sterilised they can be filled with your spirit of choice and then sealed. The caps do not require sterilisation. The great thing about this 50ml size, apart from the fact that it's designed to perfectly hold a double measure, is that it will neatly fit into a pocket or bag and it won't leak.

Of course these miniature sprit bottles are ideal for a variety of drinks. Why not try:

- chocolate liqueur
- strawberry gin
- elderflower liqueur
- Damson gin
- Blackberry liqueur
- cranberry vodka
- chilli vodka
