Cocktail-Enriching Candies

Blue Henry Created a Line of All-Natural Candy for Cocktails

While it is quite common to find a variety of cocktail-inspired candies across the confectionery industry, Blue Henry is setting itself apart with a collection of candies for cocktails, which can actually be used as substitutes for some ingredients.

The all-natural collection of candies includes simple syrups, candied fruit and divvys, which may be used as a replacement for grenadine or different kinds of syrups. While the Lime Rich Cotton Candy Divvy promises to provide sweet and bitter flavors, the brand's Candied Oranges are coated with bitters infused with organic sugar to make for an elevated cocktail, mocktail or dessert garnish, or even just a snack.

The unique collection of candies for cocktails was crafted with both the trained mixologist and the average enthusiast in mind, with accessible products that elevate the cocktail-mixing experience.
