Sure way: sell a capital item for a loss equaling the gain you have.
Others: if in business, incur business expense before year end, equaling an amount that it takes to reduce your taxes by the tax on the capital gain.
Look at giving some amount to a charity.
There are lots of ways, just depends upon how badly you want it.
