Wondering what to give your guests as a wedding favour? Something edible, or even drinkable, is your best bet. Here are some liquid options that you can dress up in lovely little vessels, often without spending too much money (always a bonus).
1. Honey
Maltese honey is renowned for its flavour, so a little jar of liquid gold would definitely go down a treat.
2. Jam
You can make jam out of almost any kind of fruit, and if you’re the DIY type, this is something you can even make yourself!
3. Olive Oil
People are getting more and more selective about their olive oil these days, so a little vial of pure, locally-sourced olive oil would certainly be well received.
4. Sparkling wine
Miniature bottles of your favourite bubbly make a really sweet parting gift for your guests.
5. Liquor
From limoncello to anisette, a liquor could be the perfect take-home gift (as well as a welcome digestif after a day of eating!)
6. Whisky
Small-batch whisky brewers are hard to come across in Malta, but just by investing in a few personalised labels, you’ll quickly have a batch of cute and quirky wedding favours.
7. Tequila
Keep the party going by giving your guests a little festive bottle of tequila to take home.
8. Gin
You don’t need to make the gin yourself, but why not try infusing it with different herbs or flowers for that special touch?
9. Gulepp
In the olden days, almost every family knew how to make gulepp, that traditional carob remedy for cold and flu. Nowadays, it can be a cute and thoughtful souvenir for a winter wedding.
10. Chutney
Yet another wedding favour that you can actually make at home, a little jar of chutney lets your guests take some of the flavour of your wedding with them.
