2024 has been a year of exciting cocktail trends, with bartenders pushing boundaries and experimenting with flavours. Complex, savoury drinks have stolen the spotlight, while ingredients like tahini, miso, mushrooms, and seaweed have entered the flavour profile. This year has also seen the rise of the sober-curious movement, with non-alcoholic beverages becoming all the rage. Additionally, we witnessed the revival of classic cocktails with a modern twist, the use of high-quality mixers, and the exploration of unexpected flavour combinations.

As we explore the cocktail landscape, we decided to dive deeper and provide partygoers, casual drinkers, and cocktail enthusiasts with a reference point for creating and experimenting with their cocktail preferences.

We reached out to Jovita Mascarenhas, the founder of Bartisans, a natural cocktail mixer venture, to share her roundup of the best cocktail mixers of 2024. Here's what she had to say!
