Ready When You Are: Top Shelf Libations by The Cocktail Collection

A well-stocked bar adds an element of sophistication to any abode, and the ability to actually craft a cocktail is a valuable skill. But when you have neither the time nor the inclination to stir or shake, these top shelf libations from The Cocktail Collection provide an ideal stand-in. Each of these pre-mixed, bottled cocktails is made with the world's most iconic spirits, and crafted to maintain consistent quality and flavor. Incredibly convenient, the collection allows you and your guests choice, as well as instant and delicious gratification. Just chill, open, pour, and serve. And, the attractive and eye-catching bottles look pretty great on a bar cart. 

"Cocktail culture continues to flourish, so it's only natural that consumers are looking to bring elevated drink experiences into their homes,” says Nikhil Shah, brand director at Diageo, The Cocktail Collection’s parent company. “But making cocktails at home, and doing it well, can be challenging for the less experienced bartender. The Cocktail Collection is here to alleviate those concerns with convenient, bar-quality cocktails from trusted brands.”

The Cocktail Collection includes:

Cosmopolitan made with Ketel One: This is a refined cocktail for a refined palate. It is perfectly balanced with the smooth taste of Ketel One Vodka and premium triple sec liqueur for a slightly sweet flavor with just a touch of tang.


Margarita made with Astral: The Astral Margarita is made with twice-distilled tequila blanco and premium triple sec liqueur, and perfectly pre-mixed with delicious citrus and agave flavors that are balanced by a smooth hint of vanilla.

Negroni made with Tanqueray: With a base of Tanqueray’s world-renowned London Dry Gin, this spirit’s herbal notes and dry finish are balanced beautifully by the tart and fruity flavors found in vermouth and bitter liqueur.

Old Fashioned made with Bulleit: A modern take on a timeless classic, the Bulleit Old Fashioned cocktail is made from Bulleit’s delightfully smooth Kentucky Bourbon and exudes notes of sweet oak, nutmeg, and light toffee that elegantly come together with the flavor of premium orange bitters.


Manhattan made with Bulleit: This expert blend of sweet vermouth, bitters, and straight rye whiskey offers clean, satiny, and woody notes for a cocktail that’s sure to earn a spot on the top of the bar cart. 

Espresso Martini made with Ketel One: This expertly crafted cocktail brings the smooth taste of Ketel One Vodka to the rich and velvety flavors of a premium coffee liqueur. 


The Cocktail Collection comes in two size options: 375 ML (four servings) and 750 ML (eight servings). The collection is available for purchase at liquor stores nationwide and on Thebar.com.
