Here’s how to host a festive drinks party the easy way with the best pre-mixed cocktails around
THIS party season, it’s time to pull out all the stops - or at least look like you are.
Put on your best Tom Cruise Cocktail impression and shake it till you make it - ready-mixed cocktails, that is.
Save yourself a load of cash and buy your cocktails ready mixed this party season, rather than having a long shopping list of ingredients.
All you need is a stylish cocktail shaker and some ice to get bar-worthy drinks in the blink of an eye.
From big-serve boxes so guests can help themselves, to teeny tins and even pouches for on-the-go party vibes, in all the classic and not-so-classic cocktail blends, you can choose from end-of-the-night negronis to bright-blue disco piscos.
You’ll have hostess with the mostest vibes faster than you can say: “Do you want a straw with that?”
