The Kate Spade cocktail mixers are making their way to Target locations in the US as a series of ready-to-mix options for consumers to pick up this spring and summer ahead of entertaining occasions. The product comes in two flavor options including Lemonade in the Shade and Desert Squeeze, which are reported to have notes of lavender, lemon and rosemary, and prickle pear with lime, respectively. The mixers are positioned as perfect for crafting cocktails, but will also work well for use in mocktails or as a traditional drink mix that only needs to be paired with a few additional ingredients to be enjoyed.
The Kate Spade cocktail mixers come in 16-ounce bottles priced at $6 each.
