Say you want to buy a drink for that special lady across the country, or toast some bros far away -- with Give Real, you can send drink credits to any bar that accepts credit cards. From $1 to $99, if you throw down the plastic, a heady concoction will show up right at your friend's gullet.

A handy Facebook app called Real Drinks does the same trick. It has a list of drink icons you can choose from in order to conveniently send an intoxicating beverage.

Sure, it's one of the few gifts that can potentially get your friend into some trouble, but it's also one you know they'll use.
