While most [ready-to-drink cocktail cans](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/on-the-rocks-cans) are at least the same size as standard soda beverages, the packaging from Tip Top Proper Cocktails sets itself apart with a 100-milliliter size. The ready-to-drink [Negroni](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/campari-negroni-ready-to-enjoy), Old Fashioned and Manhattan cocktails can either be enjoyed straight from the can or served over ice, offering a convenient way for adults to enjoy the taste of [classic bitter cocktails](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fullstrength-cocktails) without having to mix the drinks themselves.

Tip Top Proper Cocktails prides itself on creating drinks that are "always balanced" and "never too sweet." Each of the cocktails offers an easy-to-enjoy alternative to other canned products like beer, wine and other mixed drinks, especially in settings like music venues and festivals where a high volume of cocktails can't effectively be prepared.
