Kitchenware Gifts
Bodum: Coffee Travel Press If Mom is serious about her coffee, she can get the best brew from a French press, which most coffee experts agree brews the best coffee. Now, she can grab-and-go with the new Bodum Coffee Travel Press. This 16-ounce thermal cup is the equivalent of a “Grande.” Bodum Coffee Travel Press Choose From 9 Colors; All 16 Ounces $29.95 BodumUSA.com		Photo by Hannah Kaminsky \| THE NIBBLE.

Breville: One-Touch Tea Maker If Mom is a tea lover, she’ll love this new, One-Touch Tea Maker. While pricey, it brews the best tea we’ve ever had—teas we haven’t liked when brewed by the cup taste like amazingly good when slow-brewed in the Breville. The tea kettle brews the variety of tea (black, green, herbal, white) for the perfect length of time. It’s fun watching the tea basket lower and brew. You can auto-set the appliance so tea is ready the minute you get out of bed, get home, etc. We are tea lovers, and we love this device!
