Save $81: As a May 10 Deal of the Day, the Bartesian Premium Cocktail and Margarita Machine is on sale for $288.99 at Amazon — a 22% drop from its MSRP of $369.99.


A cocktail connoisseur can only be gifted so many bar cart accessories and punny aluminum signs.

If you need something more unique for a dad or a grad, go all out with the Bartesian Premium Cocktail and Margarita Machine. The automated countertop mixologist typically retails for $369.99, but is on sale for less than $300 as an Amazon Deal of the Day. (It's still full price at Bartesian's website.)

The worst part about trying new drinks isn't having to mix the drinks yourself. It's buying a whole bottle of cucumber vodka or orange flower water for one recipe just to let them collect dust afterward. Bartesian's recyclable, freshness-dated capsules have been pre-mixed by mixologists to ration the perfect mix of real juice concentrate, bitters, and extracts for whatever cocktail is indicated on the lid — included sample kit contains a cosmopolitan, old-fashioned, whiskey sour, margarita, Long Island iced tea and uptown rocks. All you have to supply is the booze, which you'll store in four reservoirs for the machine to draw from.

The machine will scan the barcode of the inserted capsule and automatically knows which reservoir stores gin, whiskey, vodka, tequila, or rum. It'll also ask you to choose your spirit strength (including a mocktail option) and prompt you to put the appropriate glass beneath.
