You and your team are most likely still working from home. Your employees have worked diligently to help the company and one another through difficult times. You’re proud of them for all that they do and perhaps you’ve been thinking about giving them a little something to let them know you miss seeing them but appreciate them.

Employee appreciation is a wonderful sentiment. But what to get your employees? There are hundreds of options that can make the decision difficult. Plus, you may have a specific budget in mind or want to give your employees a gift they will find thoughtful and useful all at once. Watches aren’t worn as much anymore and can break. Pens and other small office accessories seem impersonal.

If you want to say thank you and give them a gift which is both thoughtful and useful for years to come, consider the universally popular gift that is drinkware. Custom drinkware can be appreciated by everyone, whether it is a brand-new water bottle or a mug for coffee or tea. Not only can custom drinkware show employees that you appreciate them, but that you also care about their well-being. Hydration is essential to all of us and is linked to better cognition and less fatigue.

The best employee gifts are those that they can use in their everyday lives. Here are 5 custom drinkware gifts your team will love.
