Our "Modern Menu," specifically designed for the chic bride, the avant-garde event, and any occasion where a clean yet complex aesthetic is the aim. This isn't just a list of cocktails; it's a curated collection that embodies sophistication and thoughtful design, mirroring the sleek lines and nuanced details of modern elegance.
What makes it modern? It's all about the innovative selection of spirits and contemporary twists on timeless recipes.

Today's approach elevates this classic foundation with unexpected ingredients and flavors, creating a dynamic and evolving beverage landscape.
Our ethos—Tart, Light, Strong, Bright—is the cornerstone of every Mobile Mixologist menu. It ensures that no matter your guests' preferences, there's a perfectly balanced, expertly crafted cocktail waiting for them. The Modern Menu takes this philosophy to new heights, offering a diverse yet harmonious selection that promises to delight every palate.
Each cocktail on the Modern Menu is a testament to our dedication to balanced flavors and quality. They are unique from each other, yet they wonderfully complement one another, creating a cohesive and captivating bar experience.

Floral Cocktails: The Must-Have Bar Trend for 2025
The bar is more than just a place for drinks. It’s a focal point, a conversation starter, and an opportunity to showcase your exquisite taste. This is where floral design steps in to transform your bar from basic to breathtaking. Let’s explore how to incorporate florals to the bar to create a truly unforgettable celebration.
For those in the know, it’s all about the details. And when you're planning an event that serves a signature style with that certain je ne sais quoi – think weddings, galas, or that perfectly curated garden party – the bar is more than just a place for drinks. It’s a focal point, a conversation starter, and an opportunity to showcase your exquisite taste. This is where floral design steps in to transform your bar from basic to breathtaking. Let’s explore how to incorporate florals to the bar to create a truly unforgettable celebration.
Flowers to Dress Up the Bar
Dressing up the bar with floral arrangements is the first step in creating a visually stunning experience. But we're not talking just any blooms; we're envisioning elegant, high-end florals that speak volumes about your refined aesthetic. (For photographers and party hosts, this is pure Instagram gold!)
To envision the placement of the arrangements, think of your bar as the stage. The bartender must be front and center, a clean workspace is essential for producing skillfully made drinks that taste as good as they look. On the bar, there is space stage left and right for bold arrangements with a smaller footprint.
The front of the bar is a versatile area that can also be adorned. Imagine lush garlands of greenery, like eucalyptus or Italian ruscus, draped artfully along the front of the bar and cascading to the floor. Pillars to the left and right of the bar can expand the appearance of the bar area, creating an inviting space. You can also use stands at varying heights as a platform for lush ferns which are a symbol of new life, protection and good fortune.
The back bar, located behind the bartender, is grand. It makes the perfect backdrop to display high impact arrangements like chrysanthemums, peonies or stock in colors that complement your event's color scheme. These add height and drama, drawing the eye and enhancing the overall sophistication.
Flowers in the Ice Cubes: Chillingly Chic
Want to step up your ice game? Floral ice cubes are the answer! Imagine serving cocktails with ice cubes that encase tiny blossoms. Floral ice cubes are a detail that screams "high-end" and adds an unexpected element of delight. They are perfect for elevating a signature cocktail and adding a touch of color to every glass.
In our experience, smaller flowers, like daises and lavender blooms, freeze best and look incredibly delicate suspended in clear ice. Our mixologist can recommend which flowers would match your cocktail menu and achieve the look you desire.
To truly appreciate the delicate beauty of the embedded blooms, only ice of pristine clarity will suffice. Our signature method crafts ice cubes and ice spheres with exceptional clarity. Because let's be honest, a cloudy white mass in the ice will obscure the flower's delicate charm and completely detract from the overall impression.
Floral Garnish: Elegance in Every Glass
Now, let's talk about adding a touch of floral finesse directly onto your cocktails. Flowers and herbs as garnishes are not just pretty; they engage a sensory experience discerning guests will truly appreciate.
Orchids: For sheer drama and sophistication, orchids are unmatched. Small orchid blooms, like dendrobiums, can float gracefully in cocktails, adding an exotic and high-end touch. They are stunning in martinis or tropical-inspired drinks.
Pansies & Violas: These delicate beauties are perfect for adding a pop of color. Their mild, slightly grassy flavor won't overpower your drinks, making them ideal for lighter cocktails like gin and tonics or sparkling wine cocktails.
Roses: Rose petals, especially fragrant varieties, are the epitome of romance and elegance. Use them sparingly – a single petal or two is all you need to impart a subtle floral aroma and a touch of visual poetry. Perfect for champagne cocktails or rose-infused gin drinks.
Lavender Sprigs: Beyond just visual appeal, lavender sprigs offer an aromatic experience. Gently bruise a sprig to release its calming scent and pair it with gin, vodka, or even rum mojitos for a sophisticated twist.
It is crucial to remember that not all blooms are created equal. Our mixology team possesses specialized expertise in safe, edible florals, guaranteeing both breathtaking aesthetics and the utmost safety for your guests to enjoy.
Floral Flavor: Cocktails with Flower Power
It's not just about visual appeal; let's talk about taste! Floral notes in cocktails are incredibly on-trend. When perfectly balanced, earthy floral flavor add a layer of sophistication that will tantalize the taste buds.
Elderflower Liqueur: St. Germain or similar elderflower liqueurs are incredibly versatile and add a delicate, floral sweetness to cocktails. It's fabulous in spritzes, martinis, and even margaritas for a floral "Elderflower Margarita." Ask us about our Butterfly Pea Tea, our color-changing cocktail. Like magic, it transitions from a blue to a stunning violet hue right before your guests’ eyes!
Rose Water: A dash of rose water can transform a classic cocktail into something ethereal. Try it in a gin martini for a "Rose Garden Martini" or in a French 75 for a romantic twist.
Hibiscus Syrup: Our house-made hibiscus syrup is a real crowd pleaser. It’s stunning, vibrant pink color, is optimal in margaritas, daiquiris, or even a floral twist on a whiskey sour.
Lavender Syrup: Lavender syrup adds a calming, aromatic sweetness. It pairs beautifully with gin, vodka, and even sparkling wine. A "Lavender French 75" or a "Lavender Bee's Knees" are chic and delicious options.
By incorporating these floral elements, you're not just serving drinks; you're crafting an experience. A floral-themed bar is the epitome of elegance, sophistication, and attention to detail – everything our refined clientele desires. For your next event, let's make it bloom! Contact us today to discuss how we can help you bring your vision to life.

From Studio 54 to Your Bar: Disco Cocktails Ready to Get the Party Started
If you’re throwing a Studio 54 themed party that's dripping with disco decadence, here's how to make dazzling drinks that'll get your friends shaking their groove thang.
Hey party people! Your resident mobile mixologist is back, and this time, we're throwing it back to the era of bell-bottoms, fur, and disco balls! Are you ready to host a bash so legendary, your friends will be trading stories for weeks? If you’re throwing a Studio 54 themed party that's dripping with disco decadence, here's how to make dazzling drinks that'll get your friends shaking their groove thang.
Far Out Cocktail Presentation
Presentation is key when you’re having a themed soirée! Invest in some funky glassware – think coupes, fishbowls, and rocks glasses that scream "70s." Don't forget the garnishes! Disco ball stirring sticks, edible glitter, and elegant dried fruit are some ways you can make your drinks look foxy. Your menu design is another opportunity to set the tone before guests take their first sip.
Select Outta’ Sight Drinks
When choosing a drink menu, get inspired by the era. In the 1970s, soda guns were a bartender’s best friend for fast service at the bar. Traditional drinks were getting ditched for sexy, colorful offerings that would keep people out of lines and on the dance floor. Flash forward, we find our clients prefer a fresher take. We put a modern twist to popular drinks from the 70s by introducing fresh squeezed juices and higher end spirits.
Cater to Your Guest
We have learned over the years, that a great signature cocktail menu is balanced. By selecting drinks that are Tart, Light, Strong, Bright, you will have something for everyone. Don't forget the mocktails! Create equally dazzling drinks with vibrant colors and playful garnishes, simply leave out the booze. They'll feel just as included to get their groove on.
Disco-Era Cocktails That Still Shake It
Here's a sample cocktail menu that caters to every disco queen's taste:
The Brass Monkey (Tart): This vibrant cocktail blends Jamaican rum, bergamot vodka, and a touch of spiced port wine for a complex and tart flavor. It can be prepared in a classic punch bowl, ladled into punch glasses and finish with a float of wine, making it a perfect Welcome Drink.
Strawberry Spritz (Light): A refreshing mix of aperitivo, muddled strawberries, and a hint of rhubarb bitters. Served in a festive fishbowl goblet, it's perfect for those who want to feel light on their feet.
Empress Negroni (Strong): This one's for the bold. Butterfly pea gin creates a stunning blue hue, balanced by bitter bianco and dry vermouth. Served on the rocks with a big, beautiful ice cube, it's a sophisticated statement.
La Chona (Bright): Tequila, cucumber, jalapeño – a spicy concoction with a refreshing kick. Topped with seltzer and a playful grapefruit pizza slice garnish, it's a party in a glass.
With this bitchin’ cocktail menu, your Studio 54 themed party will be the talk of the town. Remember, it's all about the experience! So put on your dancing shoes, crank up the Donna Summer, and get ready to impress your friends with a night they won't soon forget. Now go forth, disco queens, and conquer the dance floor!

Here are just a few gems that you can use to impress your guests and throw an event with plenty of wow-factor.
Balanced Flavors
Crafting masterful drinks is an art that involves the balance of sweet, tart, and bitter to achieve that lip-smacking ahhhh moment. We have spent hours in the kitchen to press, muddle, and strain fresh ingredients to extract its flavorful essence. At times, we have even used spices, like coriander, cinnamon and cloves, and unexpected ingredients like bacon, tomatoes and cucumbers to meet clients’ visions. A good bartender should be able to collaborate with you to develop a drink menu that will suit an array of guests pallets, as well as mix up a balanced cocktail that hit all the notes.
Smoke It
There’s something carnal about smoke. Its distinct smell entices the far corners of our psyche and brings forth memories of congregating around a fire. Our Smoke Box and Smoke Top always draws a crowd. We recommend pairing the smoky flavor with a bold drink, like a Bourbon or Oaxaca Old Fashioned.
Bubble Dome
The Bubble brings the awe a child has for bubbles, but elevates it for adults. Before you ask, no, it is not soap. The bubble is a specialized edible solution which is filled with plain air or smoke to achieve a whimsical effect. Laughter and conversation flow when our bartenders entertain your guests with a drink topped with a bubble dome they can pop!
These specialized bartending tools are only as impressive as the skillful hands that wield it. That’s why it’s imperative that you ask for an expert when it comes to the bar.

And in the mobile bartending industry, there’s no one better than Mobile Mixologist. Schedule your free 30 minute consult to learn more about how you can throw an epic celebration.

How To Personalize Your Signature Drinks
By working closely with couples, we ensure their signature drinks not only taste incredible but also tell their unique love story. Our mixologists collaborate with brides and grooms to craft signature drinks that are personalized so that every sip is a reminder of the beautiful journey they are embarking on together.
By working closely with couples, we ensure their signature drinks not only taste incredible but also tells their unique love story.
Our mixologists collaborated with Amanda and Scott to craft a signature drink menu that was personalized so that every sip was a reminder of the beautiful journey they were embarking on together. Here’s how.
Incorporate heritage
Whether it's the rich spices of Indian chai, or the refreshing tang of Italian limoncello, there's a world of ingredients that can make your drink truly special. Horchata is a sweet rice milk from Mexico. The bride loves horchata so we had the caterer make extra so we could use some for cocktails. For one of the signature drinks, our mixologists paired horchata with tequila and Kahlua, for a play on a White Russian.
Blend flavors you love
Each couple is different, and by weaving their personal tastes into the cocktail, we create a drink that not only delights their palate but also tells a piece of their special story.
Cactus Cooler is a regional soda that tastes like a cross between a pineapple and orange soda. Popular in Southern California, their favorite soda’s nostalgic flavors evoked sweet memories for the couple. They wanted to share their love of Cactus Cooler with their guests, so we paired it with vodka, peach schnapps, cranberry, and fresh lemon for a vibrant fruity cocktail.
Combine interests
We also incorporate couples’ shared interests into cocktails. For instance, if they share a love for tropical vacations, we might craft a cocktail featuring exotic fruits and a splash of rum to capture the essence of their favorite getaway. If they bond over a mutual passion for coffee, a rich espresso martini could be the perfect blend to celebrate their union.
Amanda and Scott share a love for baseball. They even used baseball bats to demolish a piñata wedding cake during their reception! We incorporated their love of the game into the names of the drinks, resulting in Home Run Horchata and the Tropical Triple Play.
Ultimately, our mission is to help couples savor each precious moment and create memories that will last a lifetime. After all, your wedding day is a celebration of love, and we are honored to be a part of it.
Home Run Horchata
Tequila, Kahlua, horchata
Tropical Triple Play
Vodka, peach schnapps, cactus cooler soda, cranberry, fresh lemon
Cheers to unforgettable experiences!
