Pabst Brewing Company’s Post

Tequila is still pulling in the cash for bar owners. Gin and Whiskey aren't far behind, with a touch of rum joining in. I still believe a large percentage of the profits are derived (in the on premise) in the cocktail segment, as opposed to beer and some entry level RTDS. I like the emergence of the espresso martini and mai tai. Cordials and flavored spirits are making a comeback. Beverage Solutions || Big Dog New York LLC You need to get in the agave space now. Dont forget gin and cordials. https://lnkd.in/enTEC4Va

In addition to reviewing spirits, I also review RTD cocktails for Wine Enthusiast. The last batch included a line-up of RTD espresso martinis - and the instructions were surprisingly confusing (hello, how do you "squeeze" a canned cocktail?). Here's my WE story unraveling why pre-mixed espresso martinis are different from other RTD drink styles. https://lnkd.in/gHDa9g28

🍸 All In The Bottle - IMBIBE London 🍸 It might seem like we're spending more time out of the factory than in it right now, but rest assured, everything is chugging along smoothly in the background. This allows us to attend these amazing shows and connect with as many new and innovative producers as we can. 👨🎓 This week, we went to Imbibe Live. The Imbibe Live Show is a trade event for the UK on-trade drinks industry, bringing together professionals like bartenders, sommeliers, and bar managers. It features exhibitors showcasing a variety of products and offers educational sessions and networking opportunities with industry experts. There were loads to see, taste and enjoy. It was great connecting with Nicolas Medicamento MIH from Club Soda and hearing his exciting future plans. His talk about creating alcohol free cocktails that customers will love, was really great, and the samples handed out were delicious. It was brilliant to see the emphasis on inclusive drink menus in this conversation, as the trend for mindful drinking is certainly not going anywhere. Also it was brilliant to catch up with two fellow Sober Business Network Limited friends, Angharad Fell from NoLo Cocktails & Bars and Denise Hamilton-Mace from Low No Drinker Magazine.  It was the first time actually talking to Denise IRL which was such a treat! Overall a fun show again this year - Cannot wait for 2025, and the continuing growing focus on different NA based drinks. Did you go this week? What was your favorite part? Share in the comments. #cocktailbar #craftspirits #mixology #liquor #craftcocktails #cocktailtime #drinkstagram #cocktail #cocktailoftheday #mixologist #alcoholfree #sober #sobercurious #pureflavour #lowsugar #kombucha #lowcalorie #refreshingdrinks #refreshinglygood

Craft + Cocktails + Convenience Are you looking for a convenient and delicious way to enjoy your favorite cocktails? If so, you might want to try the latest trend in the beverage industry: ready to drink craft cocktails in a can. Ready to drink (RTD) craft cocktails are pre-mixed drinks that come in a variety of flavors and styles, from classic recipes like Moscow Mules and Gin & Tonics, to innovative concoctions like citrus-infused spirits and hard seltzers. They are made with real ingredients and high-quality alcohol, unlike the cheap and artificial malt beverages that used to dominate the market. Some of the benefits of RTD craft cocktails I see are: Convenience: You don’t have to worry about buying, measuring, and mixing different ingredients to make your own cocktails. You can simply grab a can, pop it open, and enjoy. You can also take them anywhere, as they are portable and easy to store. Variety: You can choose from a wide range of options, depending on your mood and preference. You can explore different flavors and brands, and discover new favorites. You can also mix and match different cans to create your own custom drinks. Quality: You can expect a balanced and satisfying taste from RTD craft cocktails, as they are crafted by experts who know how to blend the right proportions of alcohol, mixers, and additives. They are also made with natural and premium ingredients, ensuring a smooth and refreshing experience. Who will be the first innovator in RSA to launch these? #innovation #convenience #alcohol
