Texas Treats
Give guests a taste of Texas with a gift basket that includes locally made snacks. Some of our favorite purveyors—the smaller, artisanal shops—are now allowing customers to order online and can even ship overnight. It isn't a trip to Texas without some mesquite-smoked beef jerky, which Whittington's Beef Jerky, 877-868-5501, whittingtonsjerky.com (far left), has been making since 1963. Price: $7 per 4-ounce package. Beer aficionados will appreciate the full flavor of Saint Arnold Amber Ale, 800-801-6402, saintarnold.com (near left), from Houston’s oldest craft brewery. Price: $7.49 and up per 6-pack.
