Turning 21 is a huge milestone in a young person's life, so when the big day comes around, it's time to celebrate. The party, however, wouldn't be complete without a birthday gift they'll cherish. To that end, we found plenty for you to choose from, including fun and celebratory alcohol-related finds, cozy gifts, kitchen gifts, and more.
Not all of these gifts are just for fun; some are practical as well. That's because by 21, they may still be missing totally essential adult items like an air fryer (duh!), an heirloom-quality cast iron pan, and a colorful tool kit for when they have to play Ms. or Mr. Fix-It. No matter which gift you choose, they're sure to love it. Cheers to them on their 21st birthday! 🥂
