Funkin has absolutely nailed the balance here. It’s not just about convenience; it’s about democratising a great cocktail.

  • Top Mark: Unbeatable consistency. Every pour is identical, which is crucial during a busy service.
  • Consideration: Less flexibility for bartenders who prefer to tweak sweetness or coffee strength themselves.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Copper Mug, a lively pub in York, was struggling to keep up with the demand for espresso martinis during their weekend rush. The process was slow, and  the quality varied depending on which staff member was working.

"We switched to the Funkin Espresso Martini Mixer to standardise our offering and  speed things up. The difference was instant. The team feels more confident, and  the customers love the taste. It's taken so much pressure off the bar staff during our busiest periods."

Robert Davies – General Manager, The Copper Mug

Since making the switch, The Copper Mug has reduced the average serve time for an espresso martini by over 60%, leading to a significant uplift in cocktail sales.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • For the best taste and  a perfect chill, refrigerate the bottle for a few hours before its first use.
  • Before you pour, always give the bottle a vigorous shake to ensure all the lovely ingredients are properly mixed.
  • Store unopened bottles in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve their quality.

Keeping It Going

  • Once opened, pop the bottle in the fridge and  make sure the cap is tightly sealed.
  • To ensure freshness, aim to use the entire contents within 10 days of opening.
  • Always keep an eye on the best-before date printed on the bottle for optimal flavour.
  • Wipe the neck of the bottle after pouring to keep it clean and  prevent sticky drips.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Cocktail Mixer

Not sure what to look for? Here’s a quick guide to help you pick the perfect pre-made mixer for your business.

Know Your Crowd

Pick flavours that you know are popular with your customers. An espresso martini is a certified bestseller across the UK, making it a safe and  profitable bet for almost any venue.

Check the Ingredients

The best mixers use natural flavourings and  real fruit or coffee extracts. This Funkin mix uses real coffee, giving it an authentic taste that sets it apart from more artificial-tasting alternatives.

Factor in Speed

The whole point of a mixer is to save time. Look for simple, two-step recipes (e.g., 'just add spirit') to maximise efficiency during your busiest services.

Calculate Your Cost-Per-Serve

Work out how many drinks you can make from one bottle. A 1-litre bottle that makes 10 cocktails gives you excellent control over your stock and  makes pricing for profit simple.

Consider Your Storage

Mixers that can be stored at room temperature before opening are a huge plus, as they won't take up valuable fridge space. Always check the 'use by' period after opening.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Do I need a cocktail shaker to make this?

A: For the very best results, yes. Shaking the mixer with vodka and  plenty of ice is what creates the signature velvety foam on top.

Q: What is the recommended serving suggestion?

A: The classic serve is 100ml of mixer with 40-50ml of vodka, shaken with ice and  strained into a chilled martini or coupe glass.

Q: How long does the mixer last once it's opened?

A: Once opened, it should be refrigerated and  is best consumed within 10 days to ensure optimal freshness and  flavour.

Q: Does this product contain alcohol?

A: No, this is a non-alcoholic mixer. You add your own spirit, which is typically vodka for an espresso martini.

Q: Is this mixer suitable for vegetarians or vegans?

A: Yes, Funkin cocktail mixers are suitable for both vegetarians and  vegans.

Q: What's the best way to garnish the finished cocktail?

A: The traditional and  most popular garnish for an espresso martini is three coffee beans placed carefully on top of the foam.

Q: Can I use it to make other drinks?

A: Absolutely! While designed for an espresso martini, you could get creative and  mix it with other spirits or even use it as a base for a non-alcoholic coffee mocktail.

Q: Does it contain a lot of sugar?

A: It's professionally balanced to replicate the taste of a bar-made espresso martini, which includes sugar for balance against the bitter coffee. The flavour profile is rich and  coffee-forward, not overly sweet.
