Absolutely.
In fact, many professional bars batch cocktails ahead of busy service periods to ensure speed, consistency and quality.
The good news is that you can do exactly the same thing at home.
What Does Batching Mean?
Batching simply means mixing a larger quantity of a cocktail in advance rather than making individual drinks one at a time.
It's one of the easiest ways to make hosting less stressful.
Instead of measuring ingredients throughout the evening, everything is already prepared and ready to pour.
Which Cocktails Work Best?
Many classic cocktails are ideal for batching, including:
- Margaritas
- Daiquiris
- Cosmopolitans
- Espresso Martinis
- Negronis
- Manhattans
- Old Fashioneds
How Long Will Batched Cocktails Last?
For the best results, keep your cocktails refrigerated.
As a general guide:
- Cocktails containing fresh citrus juice should be consumed within 5 days.
- Spirit-forward cocktails without fresh juice can last up to 14 days when refrigerated.
Fresh ingredients will always produce the best flavour.
