The cocktail enthusiast has graduated from "I'll have a gin and tonic" to a place where they know which gin, which tonic, and at what ratio, and have feelings about the garnish. They have a bar cart or a section of shelf that is organized in a way that makes sense to them. They make drinks for other people and watch the moment of first sip with the specific attentiveness of someone who wants to know if it landed. They buy good amaro and use it intentionally and have probably explained the difference between a sour and a daisy to someone who did not ask. The gifts that fit them are the ones that upgrade the setup or expand what's possible in it — real tools, interesting bottles, or the books that go deeper into the craft.
