Three new flavours added to the Irish company’s colourful range of bottled cocktails.

Craft Cocktails are adding three new flavours to their popular range of premium bottled cocktails in May. The Banana Old Fashioned, French Martini, and Whiskey Sour join bestsellers like the Tommy’s Margarita, Mai Tai, and Pornstar Martini to complete the Irish company’s colourful range of ready to drink cocktails. Craft Cocktails are made using only 100% natural ingredients and some serious bartender knowhow from the award-winning team at Dublin’s BAR 1661. All new flavours will be available by 24 th May from www.craftcocktails.ie and independent retailers nationwide.

The Banana Old Fashioned has a Caribbean feel with overproof rum, banana liqueur and chocolate bitters, swimming in Bulleit Rye Whiskey. The French Martini is a classic mix of vodka, pineapple, and black raspberry liqueur, with a little Irish raspberry wine to give an extra summery feel. The Whiskey Sour tweaks the original recipe by using Bulleit Bourbon blended with Roe and Co Irish Whiskey and leaving the egg white out to ensure a six-month shelf life as with all the range. Made using fresh fruit, handmade syrups, cordials and infusions, Craft Cocktails are made to be served straight from the bottle over ice and are available in two sizes: the small 200ml bottle (€12.50) serves two, and the large 700ml bottle (€35) contains seven serves. The bestseller is the small mixed bundle, a rainbow box of six 200ml flavours priced at €75 with free shipping all over Ireland.

Craft Cocktails launched in October 2020 with six classic cocktails made for ease of serve, the Aviation, Pornstar Martini, Raspberry Negroni, Strawberry Daiquiri and Old Fashioned.
The Mai Tai and Cosmo followed in February 2021, with the zero alcohol 200ml Not a Negroni, and the luxurious, earthy 700ml Belfast Coffee. With the addition of the Banana Old Fashioned, French Martini and Whiskey Sour, the collection now has eleven core cocktails in 700ml and 200ml sizes, completing the range, with special limited-edition cocktails offered throughout the year for fun occasions. The ‘message on a bottle’ personalisation service meanwhile makes an excellent gift whether celebrated in person or remotely. The personalised label is designed, printed locally and shipped on the cocktail of choice.
Craft Cocktails are available directly from www.craftcocktails.ie, with secure delivery nationwide, or collection with ice and garnishes from BAR 1661, Green Street, Dublin 7. The range is also available at over twenty independent retailers nationwide including Lotts & Co, Mitchel and Sons Off Licenses, Molloys Off Licences, Blackrock Cellar, Neighbourhood Wine, Baggot Street Wines, and Decent Drinks Club
