5 Fantastic Stocking Stuffers from Georgia

I’ll admit, cream and butter are not the usual holiday stocking stuffers, but any cook that knows their way around a recipe will appreciate a quart of Sparkman's rich cream or a pound of sweet butter from this dairy in Moultrie, Georgia. And, you’ll reap the tasty rewards of such a thoughtful gift.

Augusta put our state on the map as “The Peach State” and lives up to that name even today with Fruitland Augusta’s Georgia Peach Vodka. It can boast as being the only peach flavored vodka made with REAL Georgia peaches. It’s also a wonderful addition to any holiday punch, hot toddy, or drizzled on top of your Christmas cake.

Yes, they have a great line of home and body products, but I’m all about the honey, Honey. Savannah Bee Company has beautiful bottles of artisanal (fancy) honey, what they call their “every day” honey and even honey sticks, which are perfect for your cup of hot tea. Whichever you decide to stuff your stocking with will be a sweet gift.

Growing up, I always looked forward to the pecans, walnuts and hazelnuts that I got in my Christmas stocking; but this was before I knew that pralines existed! Atwell Pecan Company in Wrens, Georgia, offers a HUGE selection of mixed nuts, divinity, chocolates and pralines made with Georgia pecans. I think I’ll put them in my stocking this year!

Did you know that rum was the South’s first spirit of choice — even before bourbon or whiskey? Why not stuff your stocking with a little history and a bottle of Richland Rum from Richland Distilling Company? With Georgia sugar cane and natural water from Georgia as its only two ingredients, you are definitely giving a taste of Georgia with this oak barreled rum.
