List of Virtual happy hour cocktail kits

From Moscow Mules to Blood Orange Cosmos, here is a list of virtual happy hour cocktails bound to make attendees happy.

1.  Strawberry Pineapple Sangria

One of the yummiest cocktail kits with alcohol delivery is Wood-n-Tap’s Strawberry Pineapple Sangria box. This $40 box has a 32 oz. Sangria base with a fusion of pineapple and strawberry. Alongside its sangria base is one container of strawberries and one bottle of Bosa Prosecco Brut. This box would pair well with a jar of olive tapenade and crackers.

The Perfect Margarita box from Wood-n-Tap retails at $40 and includes alcohol delivery. The kit contains one bottle of Concierge Reposado Tequila, two bottles of House-Made Margarita Mix, one lime, and one container of kosher salt. This box can be made complete with fresh salsa and chips.

3. Tiki Sangria

You can bring the islands to your virtual happy hour with a Wood-n-Tap’s Tiki Sangria box. This $40 box’s sangria’s base is a blend of Pinot Grigio, fresh juices, oranges, and cherries.

4. Moscow and Blackberry Mule

Mule cocktails have become a happy hour favorite. I prefer a classic Moscow Mule, however, there are many flavor variations. Happyhourkits.com offers a kit that includes both a classic Moscow and blackberry mule. The kit contains one bottle of Pratt Standard Blackberry Mint Syrup, two dehydrated limes, one can of Goslings Ginger Beer, two limes, one Happied Jigge, and 100ml Vodka.

6. Old Fashioned Cocktails

One of the most fun cocktail kits for employees is an Old Fashioned Cocktail kit. This kit is easily portable and includes a small batch of aromatic bitters, cane sugar, a desk-size bar spoon and muddler, a recipe card, and a linen coaster for two cocktails. Alcohol is not included, therefore, we recommend sending small bottles of gin or vodka separately. The occasion would also be an excellent opportunity to put together a happy hour basket with small bottles of alcohol and snacks.

9. Pineapple Jalapeño Kit

The combination of pineapple and jalapeño sounds incompatible until you try it. I recently tried a pineapple jalapeño margarita and have no regrets!

This kit does not include alcohol, but some recommended infusions are vodka, gin, tequila, rum, or bourbon.

19. Frozen Wine Slushies

Frozen wine slushies are the perfect summer drink! Lush Wine Mix offers fun like frosé, sangria, and strawberry basil lemonade. However, since these mixes do not include alcohol, I would recommend buying the mixes in bulk and then creating a DIY wine slushie basket.

Some ideas for a DIY slushie basket include:

  • One bottle of wine
  • One bottle of water
  • Bar of chocolate

Each mix has enough for nine to ten servings, so you can create four to five wine slushie kits with mini bottles of wine, mini water bottles, and fun chocolate treats.
