First, it was Fourth of July. Now, it's Christmas.

What's happening: Colorful drone shows have been growing in popularity across South Florida as an alternative to fireworks — and now Miami Beach is testing its own high-tech festivities for the winter holidays.

Details: Miami Beach — which boasted both drones and fireworks on July 4 — plans to light up the South Beach sky with a holiday-themed drone show Saturday at 7pm.

• The 10-minute display at Ocean Drive and 12th Street is free to the public.

The intrigue: The city isn't paying for it, either. The vendor, Sky Elements, is using it as a rehearsal for another holiday drone show it's doing somewhere else, Lissette Arrogante, the city's director of tourism and culture, told Axios in an email.

What they're saying: Arrogante said drone shows offer audiences unique, state-of-the-art entertainment.

• But the city doesn't have plans to replace fireworks with drone shows at other holiday celebrations, Arrogante said.

Pro tip: Get there early if you don't want to miss the show. The city says it starts "promptly" at 7pm.

The 7,000-square-foot Surfside condo where Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner have been living is up for sale, according to a representative for the building.

Driving the news: The duplex in the Arte building is listed for $18.8 million.

Details: The 1,480-square-foot condo boasts six bedrooms and seven and a half bathrooms, two kitchens and two terraces.

• Plus: panoramic ocean views and beach access.

Of note: Kushner and Trump reportedly bought a 6-bedroom waterfront mansion in Indian Creek for $24 million last year.

Hi, it's Deirdra. I have family and friends in Germany, and every year they send my son and me amazing — and very German — holiday gifts.

We've received: a cuckoo clock, beer steins, a Fortuna Dusseldorf soccer jersey, a schnitzel cookbook, traditional gingerbread hearts, and really cute egg holders.

• It's totally a thing to soft-boil eggs the German way and serve them in Eierbecher (egg cups)!

The rub: Every year, we're stumped about what to send Tante Burga and Tante Leonie in return.

• When I first met them, I thought, "Germans love beer!" and spent many hours with a glue gun and pompoms, making "Miami Vice"-themed beer koozies.
• Only years later did they have the nerve to pull them out of their cabinet, unused, and ask what the hell they were. (Germans don't drink from cans, and their beer bottles are bigger than ours!)

What else: I already sent them everything I could find from Wings with the word "Miami" on it.

• I also sent the coconut monkey from my cocktail at Shuckers (though I suspect these are mass-produced and carved elsewhere).

The bottom line: For anyone in a similar predicament, I'm rounding up the most "Miami" gifts to buy this holiday season. Top of my list:

• A Moka pot and a package of Pilon for making Cuban coffee.
