Fancy glassware, special tools and bespoke ingredients are part of the reason we drink at our favorite bars. These special tools add to the glitter of a night out.

But for those looking to bring a bit of the bar home, a few cocktail wizards have begun to sell their favorite goods to the general public. Consider adding these items to your holiday wish list:

Glassware: Clover Club's Julie Reiner has partnered with Waterford, the illustrious crystal giant, to create a line of cocktail-focused vessels. Dubbed "Mixology," the coupes, tumblers and decanters ($175 to $375) look straight out of Boardwalk Empire: They are gaudy in a good way.

Gear: Another way to tote your shaker has just become available, thanks to David Kaplan and Alex Day of New York's Death & Co. The pair has launched Gin & Luck, a new drinks-focused lifestyle brand that debuted with a cocktailer's backpack ($395). The canvas-and-leather bag has waterproof compartments, a laptop sleeve, and pockets for a shaker and two 750-milliliter bottles.

Goods: Let Todd Thrasher, booze chief of Restaurant Eve, PX and the new Bar TNT, help you mix a better Gin & Tonic. Thrasher is debuting his line of syrups and mixers–including a ginger beer and a tomato-water Bloody Mary base–online this December.
