When hosting a cocktail party, having the right mixers on hand is key to ensuring your guests have a variety of delicious drink options. From syrups to spirits, a well-rounded selection of mixers can elevate your gathering. So, what mixers do you need for a party? Here are the essentials.

Cocktail Syrups

High-quality cocktail syrups are a must for adding flavor and depth to your drinks. Liquid Alchemist offers a wide range of syrups, including:

  • Prickly Pear Syrup: Perfect for margaritas and lemonades, this syrup adds a sweet, subtly earthy flavor.
  • Ginger Syrup: Adds a spicy kick to cocktails, ideal for Moscow Mules or a refreshing twist on a classic whiskey sour.
  • Almond Orgeat Syrup: The go-to for tiki cocktails like the Mai Tai, adding a rich, nutty flavor.
  • Falernum Syrup: A versatile syrup with a medley of spices, lime, and ginger, perfect for tiki drinks like the Three Dots and a Dash.

Citrus and Fresh Ingredients

Fresh citrus like lemons, limes, and oranges are necessary for balancing the sweetness of syrups and spirits. Having fresh herbs like mint or basil also adds a refreshing touch to your drinks.

Sodas and Sparkling Water

For those who prefer lighter or non-alcoholic options, make sure you have soda water, tonic water, or sparkling water. Pairing these with flavored syrups creates refreshing, low-ABV cocktails or mocktails that everyone can enjoy.

By stocking your bar with these essential mixers, you’ll be ready to impress your guests and cater to a wide range of tastes. Liquid Alchemist’s syrups provide the perfect foundation for creating both classic and unique cocktails with minimal effort.
