![]() ![]() ![]() The general consensus was if you are into cocktails, then these cocktails will let you down.īartesian – The Guys, The Wife, and the Dude walking his dog all like the flavors of the various drinks, testing out Manhattan’s, Whiskey Sours, Long Island Iced Tea, and many Margaritas. My Wife – Drinking an Old Fashioned: “It’s nice, but not a lot in terms of catching my attention, it needs flavoring.”Ī Lady Power Walking – Drinking two Vodka Lemonades (just to make sure): “It’s tasty, but not great. I equate the Drinkworks cocktails to a better-than-average drink that you get on a flight, mixed by a flight attendant. Their tag line is “the best of the bar now at your finger tips.” Which makes me wonder, exactly what bars did the team at Keurig go to when they were doing their research? The Drinksĭrinkworks – The drinks are good. You can buy a six-pack of your favorite mix for about $15. You also have the choice of a Mocktail (for some reason), a regular drink, and a strong drink (favored by “the guys”). When you put in a flavor pod for a Manhattan, for instance, you get to use the bourbon of your choosing. With Bartesian you have slots and bottles on the side of the machine that you can fill with your favorite liquor: bourbon, tequila etc. If you’re hosting a party, that can add up quickly if you want to offer a diversity of drink options.ĭrinkworks come packed with the liquor and mixings in every pod, so you don’t need anything more than that to whet your whistle.īartesian – Their pods are also loaded with the flavors and mixings you need to create a good drink, but that’s where the similarities end.

A bad drink, well, all you have to do is go into a TGI Friday’s and order a Manhattan and you can taste the sorrow in every swallow. According to a study by the U.S National Library of Medicine and National Institute of Health, almost two-thirds of 2020 participants (60.1 percent) reported that their drinking had increased compared to before COVID-19.Ī good drink is a part of who we are, our history.
