Cocktail menus are an important part of what we work on for your party or function.
Once we’ve agreed then format of the party with you, we start work on the fun bit. Your cocktail menu. It’s all about having a great range of delicious cocktails to go with your event right? Well yes it is. But it’s also about having a range of cocktails which suit the audience. We like to ensure that we nail it – by providing the ‘right’ cocktails to match the audience, the event, the age group and even the time of year.
We’ve been running the Cocktail Shaker Boys for over 10 years. We’ve learned a lot along the way. Certainly a menu for a hen party of 20 somethings would be quite different to a 50th, 60th or 70th birthday party with equal numbers of men and women.
Perhaps you’re planning out a birthday party for a significant birthday in Northampton or Leicester. If it’s a significant one (50th, 60th and 70th) we may well include brandy and whisky on your menu. These are the ones the men will typically go for. Shorter, spirity and based on dark spirits.
Hen party cocktail menus
By contrast if you’re planning out a hen party, we’ll go big on the vodka, gin (usually), Prosecco and possibly tequila. Your cocktails will tend to be different colours too, such as the chocolate & chilli infused vodka based Basquezera. But if you want whisky to be included on your hen party menu, then that is fine too. Of course. As we did at a Bristol hen party.
For summer we’ll tend towards the longer, fruitier cocktails and we’ll go light on the cream and Baileys. If it’s Christmas though, the creamy ones and the sparkly ones shine. We also ensure that the cocktail menu we put together for you is balanced. It will have a variety of spirits, and a variety of styles : short and spirity, long and fruity, sparkly, creamy etc. Something for everyone we hope. Cocktails and cocktail menus for all occasions. From the Cocktail Shaker Boys. Cheers.
