If you look at the ingredients in ready-made cocktail mixers or the prices of the more wholesome versions, you’ll be happy to try making your own. Once you taste them, you’ll never go back!
Why would you want to do this?
Have you looked at the ingredients in premade mixers? I don’t want that stuff in my drinks! Plus, you’ll save money and impress your friends with your delicious homemade cocktails.
Cost comparison:
