Yumix launched a new range of DIY cocktail drinks in twin-chambered bottles that boast one compartment for spirits and another for mixers. When it comes to making a cocktail, consumers need only twist off the spirits container and add in the cocktail mix. In this way, the unique design of the cocktail product containers mean that the drinks are unlike many others in the pre-made cocktail category that require preservatives. As Yumix founder and CEO Alex Garner says: "the result is a beverage that tastes like it was just made by a top mixologist, with a bright, fresh flavour that’s both portable and shelf-stable.”
Products from Yumix are available in flavors such as the Classic Margarita made with Tequila, as well as the Orange Mango and Sea Breeze cocktails, both of which are enhanced with vodka.
