Enjoy at home: Cocktail in a Can from Curatif

The Covid pandemic has ushered in and accelerated the growth of a new drink concept- the ready-to-serve cocktails- opportunity in every crisis indeed!

Previously Alvinology.com featured bottled cocktails from local brands Gudsht and Zouk where many of the cocktails are inspired by local flavors (think Teh Peng, Milo Gao). Now we are back to introduce canned cocktails from Australian brand, Curatif, which promises a premium cocktail experience at home.

Curatif

Launching in 2019 in Melbourne, Australia, Curatif has developed each of their cocktails in  collaboration with craft spirit makers from around the globe. With a shelf life of more than 12 months, each beautifully designed and  recyclable can allows for quick and easy preparation at your convivence and pleasure.

Four Flavors Available In Singapore

Archie Rose Espresso Martini (16.4% ABV / 120 ml) Rich, creamy and indulgent this drink is a decadent  blend of coffee, vodka and sweet tones. The cocktail initially provides a  warm burst of smooth sweetness which is quickly  followed by the rich toffee, cocoa and coffee  elements of the flavour wheel. The final piece of the  puzzle is the beautifully crafted Archie Rose Original  Vodka which seduces and harmonises wonderfully  with the roasted heat of espresso, providing for a  surprisingly complex but thoroughly balanced and  satisfying cocktail. 

Negroni (17.25% ABV / 140 ml) Arguably one of the world’s most enduring and  simplest cocktails, this is a drink with its foundations  built in balance. The first taste is a spicy bitterness  developed from the Italian roots and herbs that  make up the Campari recipe long held closely as a state secret. The sweet vermouth brings a rich and  fresh yet preserved fruit note thanks to its grape  base, providing a delicate balance to the bitterness  of the Campari. Finally, the specially distilled Four  Pillars Spiced Negroni Gin – made specifically for use  as the base of a Negroni with added pepperberry  and cinnamon – delivers not only its own spice but  also a warmth which when perfectly coupled with  bitters and vermouth provides for one of the world’s  great tipples.

Plantation Pineapple Daiquiri (18.5% ABV / 130 ml) This is the drink that escaped while no one was  looking, it’s the Harley Quinn of the cocktail world – sweet, beautiful, and as dangerous as they come.  Award winning Plantation rum from Barbados,  Trinidad, and Jamaica is blended with pineapple  rinds, infused in Plantation 3 Star rum, then further  distilled in Ferrand Copper Pot Stills and excitingly  paired to the crisp, acid sweet profile of (Australian)  central coast limes, all of which is balanced to  perfection by locally prepared agave syrup and  Australian pressed cane sugar. 

Tromba Margarita (18.5% ABV / 130 ml) The thirst-quenching, poolside Tommy’s Margarita  heroes Tequila Tromba – a company started by a  couple of great Australians who produce world class  tequila out of Jalisco, Mexico with world renowned  master distiller Cedano. With lime juice squeezed fresh from the Central Coast, this perfectly balanced  cocktail is positioned to elevate your Summer  drinking (in every season).
