Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The team at 'The Northern Quarter Pourhouse' in Manchester needed to speed up their cocktail service on packed weekend nights. The inconsistency and  time taken to brew fresh espresso for each order was creating a bottleneck at the bar and  frustrating customers.

"Since switching to the Think Drinks creator, our service flow has been transformed. We can now confidently serve a perfect Espresso Martini in under 30 seconds. The quality is fantastic and  our customers love it. It's been a massive operational win for us."

Ben Carter – General Manager, The Northern Quarter Pourhouse

The bar successfully reduced its average cocktail preparation time by over 60% during peak periods, leading to higher sales and  improved staff morale.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Store unopened pouches in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
  • Before service, ensure you have your chosen spirit, a cocktail shaker, ice, and  glassware ready.
  • For best results, use a jigger to measure both the mix and  the spirit accurately as per the serving suggestion.
  • Give the pouch a gentle shake before pouring to ensure the contents are well mixed.

Keeping It Going

  • Once opened, the pouch must be refrigerated to maintain its 6-week shelf life.
  • Always use the 'First In, First Out' (FIFO) system to rotate your stock effectively.
  • Keep the dispensing nozzle clean by wiping it with a damp cloth after use to prevent crystallisation or drips.
  • Ensure the cap is sealed tightly after each service to preserve freshness and  flavour.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Cocktail Mix

Not sure which pre-mix solution is right for your establishment? Here are a few key things to consider to make the best choice for your bar.

Taste & Authenticity

Is the flavour profile authentic? Look for mixes that use quality ingredients to replicate the classic cocktail taste, rather than something that tastes artificial or overly sweet.

Speed vs. Complexity

How easy is it to use? The best solutions are simple pour-and-mix systems that any staff member can use, drastically cutting down on training and  preparation time.

Spirit Flexibility

Does it come pre-mixed or is it an alcohol-free base? An alcohol-free base like this ready made espresso martini mixer offers far more flexibility to control your costs and  quality.

Shelf Life & Waste

Check the shelf life both before and  after opening. A long open shelf life, like 6 weeks, is crucial for minimising waste and  maximising the profitability of every pouch.

Cost Per Serve

Don't just look at the upfront cost. Calculate your true cost per serving by factoring in the mix, your chosen spirit, and  garnish to understand your gross profit margin.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the best spirit to mix with this?

A: Vodka is the classic choice for an Espresso Martini, but the beauty of this base is its versatility. You could also try it with vanilla vodka, spiced rum, or even tequila for a unique twist.

Q: How many servings are in one 2.25L pouch?

A: Based on a 75ml pour of the mix per drink, you will get approximately 30 servings from a single pouch. A full box (2 pouches) yields around 60 servings.

Q: How should I store the pouches before opening?

A: Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, just as you would with other ambient drink products.

Q: Does it need to be refrigerated after opening?

A: Yes, to ensure it stays fresh for its full 6-week shelf life, you must refrigerate the pouch after it has been opened.

Q: Is this product suitable for vegetarians or vegans?

A: Think Drinks cocktail bases are suitable for both vegetarian and  vegan diets. For full peace of mind, always check the product packaging for the most current ingredient information.

Q: Can I create a non-alcoholic version?

A: Absolutely. The base itself is alcohol-free. You can mix it with a non-alcoholic spirit or simply shake it with ice and  a dash of water for a delicious virgin Espresso Martini.

Q: What is the recommended way to serve it?

A: For the perfect serve, we recommend shaking 75ml of the mix with 25ml of vodka and  plenty of ice in a cocktail shaker. Strain into a chilled martini glass and  garnish with three coffee beans.

Q: Does the mix contain caffeine?

A: Yes, as it is made with real coffee extract, the mix does contain caffeine, providing that authentic Espresso Martini kick.

The Think Drinks Advantage: Consistency in Every Glass

Beyond the simple convenience, the real value of the Think Drinks espresso martini creator lies in its ability to build your bar's reputation for quality and  reliability. In the hospitality industry, consistency is king. This mix eliminates the variables that can lead to a sub-par drink—like incorrectly brewed espresso, rushed measurements, or bartender inexperience. It empowers any member of your team to produce a flawless, high-quality cocktail every single time, from the first order on a quiet Tuesday to the last call on a frantic Saturday night. This unwavering standard not only delights customers and  encourages repeat business but also reduces expensive waste from remakes and  simplifies staff training. It's a strategic investment in operational smoothness and  brand trust, ensuring that your establishment is known for serving one of the best Espresso Martinis in town.

Why an Alcohol-Free Base Gives You Ultimate Control

You might see 'alcohol-free' and  wonder what the point is for a cocktail. But that's precisely where the genius lies. A pre-mixed cocktail locks you into whatever spirit the manufacturer chose, which might not match your bar's quality or price point. This cocktail base for espresso martini works more like a chef's high-quality stock.

By providing a perfectly balanced, non-alcoholic foundation, it gives you—the operator—complete control. You can choose to mix it with your house vodka for a competitive price, a premium craft vodka to create an up-market version, or even experiment with spiced rum or tequila for a signature twist. You control the final taste, the brand, the margin, and  the quality. It's the smart way to serve customisable cocktails at scale.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Busy Pubs & Bars: Serve one of the UK's most popular cocktails in seconds, keeping queues down and  profits up.
  • Mobile Bar & Event Caterers: A reliable, easy-to-transport solution for serving quality cocktails anywhere with minimal equipment.
  • Restaurants & Bistros: Easily add a profitable, premium cocktail to your drinks menu without needing a dedicated mixologist.
  • Hotels & Function Venues: Guarantee consistency for large rounds, room service orders, and  conference delegates with this foolproof mix.
