Cocktail and mocktail catering

A signature drink can become a signature moment. Bring cocktails and alcohol-free alternatives into a launch, reception or brand activation, with the flavour, menu and serving environment designed to feel connected.

01 / Build the experience

Make the menu part of the creative.

A focused cocktail selection

A short, deliberate menu makes the experience easier to understand. Our Cannes work has included spritzes and passion fruit martinis. Use the occasion and audience to guide the choice, then agree recipes, glassware or cups and the way the drinks will be served.

Mocktails with their own identity

An alcohol-free choice deserves the same attention to flavour and presentation. Discuss a standalone recipe rather than simply removing a spirit from a cocktail. The menu should clearly distinguish the options, and any alcohol-free claim must reflect all ingredients, including mixers and garnishes.

Connect the bar to the campaign

A branded serving point, custom menu and coordinated presentation can turn a drinks service into part of the event story. Share your campaign assets and references, then work through which elements help the experience and which may slow preparation or create unnecessary complexity.

02 / Cocktails + Mocktails

Give cocktails and mocktails equal thought

For a mixed audience, think about the non-alcoholic selection at the same time as the cocktails. Consider the flavours, the presentation and how guests will understand their choices. A clearly described menu helps people choose the drink they want without having to decode the concept. Tell us whether the event calls for cocktails, mocktails or a combination, and identify any ingredient questions that need to be addressed when the menu is agreed.

03 / Cocktails + Mocktails

Match the menu to the moment

A short reception and an evening with several stages need different menu conversations. Share the service window, the event programme and how you expect guests to move through the space. Our Cannes 2024 round-up includes spritz and passion fruit martinis, illustrating drinks within a wider event offer. If your brief also needs the complete bar setup and staffed operation, explore our mobile bar service alongside the menu discussion.

Real work / Real experiences

In the real world.

Your questions, answered.

Can the drinks follow our brand concept?

Yes. Share the campaign idea, product references and visual direction. We can discuss how those translate into a proposed drinks menu, with specific recipes and presentation agreed for your event.

Can we brief a mocktail-only menu?

Yes. Make the non-alcoholic requirement clear in your enquiry so the menu discussion starts with the right audience and occasion.

Is this the same as mobile bar hire?

This page focuses on the bespoke drinks menu. Our fully serviced mobile bar page covers the complete setup and staffed operation when the brief needs both.

What should we send with an enquiry?

Include the date, venue, audience, budget and service times. Add the balance of cocktails and mocktails you want, plus any ingredients or brand references central to the idea.

Can cocktails and mocktails be served together?

Yes, a mixed menu can be discussed. The options need clear names and service arrangements so guests can distinguish alcoholic and alcohol-free drinks. Ingredients and preparation are confirmed for the agreed recipes.

Can we request a signature drink?

Bring the flavour direction, product story or colour reference to the brief. We can explore how to translate it into a practical drink, with recipe development, ingredients and presentation subject to agreement.
