Top Cocktail Trends in 2024
Minimalist Cocktails
The minimalist vibe celebrates quality over quantity. Each component has to earn its place by bringing something delicious to the party. No more overloading your drinks with a million extras! This trend is a refreshing break from overthinking it. Just a few perfect pops of flavor, allowing the real stars to shine.
That's where Craftmix comes in clutch. Our mixes cut out all the unnecessary filler, delivering a knockout fruity punch using actual fruit - the whole fruit and nothing but the fruit. When your cocktails are this fresh and flavorful, you don't need a bunch of extra junk muddying things up. Simple sips for the win!
Unconventional Ingredients
Alright cocktail trendsetters, get ready for 2024's wildest cocktail craze - going rogue with unexpected ingredients! We're talking coconut oil, sesame oil, and who knows what else bartenders will dare to shake up next.
The buzzword is "fat-washing" and it's about to blow your mind. Basically, you infuse spirits with different fats and oils to add an insane level of velvety richness and bold new flavor dimensions. This mad scientist technique has been building major buzz for a while now, and 2024 is the year it's going mainstream.
That's where Craftmix comes in to play, making this wild trend surprisingly easy to rock at home. Why not add a touch of lush coconut oil to our mango marg mix for a tropical vacay vibe? With Craftmix, you've got the perfect blank canvas for getting creative and daring to drink outside the box.
Budget-Friendly Options
Prices got you stressing over splurging on fancy cocktails? Girl, we feel you! Between inflation and the cost-of-living crisis, keeping that mixology hobby going can put a serious dent in your wallet.
But don't throw in the towel on your craft cocktail dreams just yet! Bars are getting savvy by rolling out money-saving moves to keep customers coming back for more. We're talking sneak peek nights to test new drinks before launch, plus unbeatable happy hour specials that'll have you raising a glass all week long.
And when it comes to at-home cocktailing on a budget, Craftmix has your back. Our mixes make trendy sips totally affordable by using real, high-quality fruit - no artificial junk. You can whip up insta-worthy margaritas, espresso martinis, mojitos and more for, like, 10 times less than what you'd pay out. Talk about a sweet deal! Cheers to drinking well without going broke.
Spicy Drinks
Alright cocktail cravers, let's talk about the flavor trend that's setting taste buds on fire in 2024 - savory AND spicy sips! Yeah, you heard that right. This year's "it" drinks are ditching the sugar rush for flavors that'll wake up every part of your palate.
We're talking bold, complex, crazy-delicious cocktails like zesty Bloody Marys, dirty martinis with all the salty olive brine, and margaritas spiked with a fiery jalapeño punch. Or maybe a refreshing ginger basil smash with a low-key throat tingle is more your vibe? However you like to spice things up, this trend is all about getting adventurous.
And you know Craftmix has got your back for DIY adventures into savory-spicy cocktail territory. Our skinny marg mix is the perfect feisty base for adding a jalapeño kick. Or get creative blending our mixers with hot sauces, fresh herbs, citrus - whatever savory, tongue-tingling ingredients get you excited! With Craftmix, the options for crafting crazy-unique new flavors are endless.
Fancy Ice Cubes
One of 2024's hottest drink trends is taking ice game to a whole new level. We're talking next-level cube creativity that'll completely reimagine how you chill (and glam up) your signature sips.
Gone are the days of settling for those boring, tiny ice squares. This year is all about making a frozen statement with giant, crystal-clear cubes, fun shapes like diamonds or spheres, or maybe even crafting your own herb- or fruit-infused icy masterpieces. Yeah, ice is officially the new garnish for eye-catching cocktail artistry!
So grab some funky molds and get experimenting with infusing your cubes with fresh flavors. We're talking lavender, coffee, cucumber mint - the possibilities are endless for adding layers of aroma and taste. Imagine a gorgeous mango marg from Craftmix topped with a mammoth ice cube bursting with muddled mint. Or a classic lime sipper crowned with an elegant lemon-thyme frozen sphere. Insta-worthy sipping has never looked (or tasted) so cool!
Low-and No-Alcohol Cocktails
Bartenders are finally treating non-alcoholic options with the creativity and care they deserve.
Gone are the days of sad, uninspired "virgin" drinks as an afterthought. This year's mocktail game is strong with incredible flavors, gorgeous presentations, and truly satisfying refreshments for those looking to sip sans booze. Mixologists are pouring their hearts into amazing zero-proof creations that'll have you doing a double-take.
