The Troughton’s ‘Raising Spirits' mixers have been unveiled by the Armagh Cider Company as a lineup of refreshments for consumers that are perfect for pairing with alcohol for a flavorful cocktail. The [lineup of mixers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mixxers) includes the Premium Indian Tonic, Premium Light Tonic, Refreshing Lemonade and Premium Ginger Ale, which are all made with [natural spring water](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/belvoir-farm) sourced from the Troughton family farm. The mixers were created by the Armagh Cider Company to help fill the gap in the market for [high-quality cocktail mixers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nomuss-mixers) that are made in Northern Ireland.

The Troughton’s ‘Raising Spirits' mixers were explained by Director at Armagh Cider Company Mark Troughton who said, "We’ve been planning the range for two-and-a-half years, working through samples to perfect the recipes. We’ve worked with a number of designers and specialists to create the right product for the market. Already, we’ve had enquiries from Dubai, China and America and the range will now be going to Expo 2020 Dubai."
