Rusty Barrel Coasters (set of six) £12

Keep the drink rings off your tabletops this Christmas by insisting your guests put their glasses on one of our Rusty Barrel Coasters. These six melamine mats are hard wearing and wipe clean, and, in true Rusty Barrel fashion, they also contain the recipe for your next drink!

Celebrate in style this Christmas with a Rusty Barrel cocktail without having to worry about your tabletop. You’re welcome.

Rusty Barrel Bloosmbury Ice Cube trays (set of 3) £15

Not to be too controversial, but ice is the most important ingredient in any cocktail. 

Whether it's served in the glass or stays behind in the shaker, ice keeps your drink cool and dilutes it just enough to taste amazing.

Our Rusty Barrel Bloomsbury Ice Cube Trays are made from flexible silicone so you can pop the ice out with ease without bending and twisting and banging them on your bench. 

They’re dishwasher safe too!

This set of three contains both large and medium ice cubes, but, in our opinion, it’s the ice spheres that steal the show.

Monin Syrup Set of Five £11

We’ve all been there. Excited to try out a new cocktail only to read the recipe and despair when you see a list of ingredients you definitely don’t have in the cupboard. 

Well, despair no more!

The Monin Cocktail Syrup Set contains five non-alcoholic flavours so you can recreate some classic cocktails at home, as well as add a dash of flavour to some virgin cocktail creations too.

The Monin Cocktail Syrup set contains:

  • Passion Fruit

  • Mojito Mint

  • Strawberry 

  • Coconut

  • Elderflower

And comes with an included recipe book. 

Impress your friends with your cocktail making prowess without filling your cupboards with ingredients.

Cocktail Codex: Fundamentals, Formulas, Evolutions £25

The Cocktail Codex is one of our favourite cocktail books and helps you understand the science behind the recipe, rather than just following it step by step.

The authors argue that all cocktails come from just six route drinks— old fashioned, martini, daiquiri, sidecar, whisky highball, and flip. 

Once you’ve mastered the six, you’ll have a deep understanding of when to stir and when to shake, what you can add and what to take out. 

Experiment with confidence and invent the next classic cocktail—the only challenge will be coming up with a name for your latest creation!
