People who love coffee or tea already have a routine, so the best gift fits into it: the mug by the kettle, the tumbler in the car, the coaster on the desk. Pick the piece that matches how they drink, then add an initial, a name or photos so it's clearly theirs.

Everything here works for coffee, tea or cocoa. Each idea notes what to personalize and how early to order.

4 A photo travel mug

Who it suits: Coffee lovers who miss their family or their pets during the day.
