You've opened the phone to call us and your mind has gone completely blank. You know you want something. You know people are coming over, or the night is going sideways in the best possible way, or you just need something and it's midnight. But what, exactly?
We've taken thousands of orders. We know that this moment of paralysis is real and it happens to everyone. So here's a simple guide: match your situation to an order, and stop overthinking it.
Just the two of you, keeping it low-key
A bottle of wine + a six-pack
Wine slows the pace and opens conversation. The beers are for later, when you've settled in and nothing needs deciding. Red if you're staying in, white if there's any chance of moving to the balcony.
Group of friends, pregaming before going out
Vodka, mix, and a case of beer
Fast, easy, high-yield. Vodka soda is the move for people watching their intake; vodka cran for everyone else. The beer handles the stragglers and the people who can't commit to a spirit.
After-party — you're not ready for the night to end
Whisky or rum, whatever's left in the fridge
At this point nobody wants to make decisions. Whisky and Coke or rum and cola — both mix themselves in thirty seconds. Keep it simple. The night has already done the heavy lifting.
Celebrating something — birthday, promotion, good news
Champagne or prosecco + one other spirit
You need something to toast with and something to drink after the toast. Prosecco is the move if you're not trying to spend a lot. Add tequila or gin for the people who want to keep the energy going.
Solo night in
Your favourite spirit, a good mixer, no overthinking
This is the time to order what you actually like rather than what seems appropriate for a group. Treat yourself. You earned it.
You genuinely have no idea
Vodka, always vodka
Vodka is the answer to every “I don't know” situation. It mixes with almost anything, it offends almost nobody, and you probably already have something in the fridge it goes with.
A Few Rules That Always Apply
- —Order more than you think you need. Nobody ever said “I wish we'd ordered less.” Leftover bottles are not a problem.
- —Always get beer too. Even if the plan is spirits, someone will want a beer. Always someone.
- —Don't forget mixers. The best vodka in the world is not fun without something to go with it. Coke, cranberry, orange juice — pick one.
- —When in doubt, go with what you've liked before. Not the time for experiments. Stick to what you know.
And if you're still stuck — just call us. We've helped people figure out what they want more times than we can count. Tell us the vibe and we'll point you in the right direction.
We carry it all.
