Going out can be expensive, and in the current economic climate, many people are forgoing nights out in order to save money. Consumer spending on in-home leisure is forecasted to rise from 39.5m in 2004 to 43m in 2012, with 72% of adults choosing to entertain friends at home at least once a week, compared to just 58% in 2006.
Whether you’re planning a party at your home, for a friend, a wedding reception, or any other social event, Zest Mixology provides a service that not only surpasses compeitiion by way of price (the average cost of a Zest party is £400, a whopping £300 less than its competitors)
The mobile cocktail bar is available for hire at events nationwide, and has travelled the length and breadth of the UK, to a rapturous reception. Leeds Guide, Agwa UK, and Jet2 have all raised a glass.
“A top idea: fabulous, fresh cocktails made-to-order from a well-stocked bar and served with a smile by party-friendly folk, Zest Mixology is sure to shake up any social gathering.”
- Sambolita Smalles, Jet2 Airlines
Zest Mixology’s stunning mobile bar units can be customised to fit any event, be it large or small. Its versatility makes the bar ideal for parties of any size, from a penthouse apartment to a large marquee or exhibition hall. Beautiful glassware, premium spirits, electric ice crushers and freezing solutions are all provided.
Established in May 2008 by owner Murdo McLeod, Zest uses a highly-skilled team of cocktail mixologists, flair bartenders and glamorous hostesses to accompany the bar in style. Different aspects of the service can be hired separately, as follows:
1 A cocktail service set up in a penthouse apartment with a small bar (this just requires a plug point and some shelves in the freezer)
2 Hire some of the bartenders separately to work behind an existing bar within a venue, adding cocktail glamour to the event
3 A full cocktail service within a marquee event with a large cocktail bar, many staff and freezers.
Only the finest, freshest premium ingredients are used to create and concoct cocktails from the extensive menu. Drinks can even be chosen in advance from Zest Mixology’s range of ‘Twisted Classics’, which offers an innovative, mouthwatering new slant on classic cocktail recipes. Sip a Mojito Royale or a Berry Collins, and taste the difference for yourself.
Drinks cost just £4 per drink, with a one-off £50 service charge per party. A typical order is for 80-150 cocktails to be served between 8pm-midnight for 20-50 guests.
