annual gift

Once-a-year offering

A gift given once a year, typically on a recurring occasion such as a birthday, holiday, or anniversary.

The phrase also has technical meaning in tax and estate planning, where annual gifts up to a certain amount can be given without triggering gift tax: She made her annual gift to each grandchild in December.
