FAQs
The cocktails
What’s in the range?
Eight ready-to-drink cocktails in cans: Coastal Cosmopolitan, Espresso Martini, Hugo Spritz, Margarita, Mojito, Negroni, Pineapple Daiquiri and Seabird Paloma.
How big is a can?
It depends on the cocktail. A Negroni is 100ml, a Margarita, Espresso Martini, Pineapple Daiquiri or Coastal Cosmopolitan is 125ml, and a Hugo Spritz, Seabird Paloma or Mojito is 150ml. Each can is one full cocktail.
Do I need to add anything?
No. Every can is the whole cocktail, spirit and all. Chill it, pour it over ice or into a cold glass, and add a garnish if you want one. The Margarita, Espresso Martini, Pineapple Daiquiri and Coastal Cosmopolitan like a hard shake in the can first.
What’s in each cocktail?
The main ingredients are on the can, and the full list, allergens and ABV are on each product page.
What sizes do they come in?
Packs of 4, 8, 12 and 24 cans of one cocktail, or one of our mixed sets.
How long do they keep?
Our cans have an 18 month shelf life from production, and every can we send has at least six months left on it. Store them somewhere cool and out of the sun, then chill before drinking.
Ordering and gifts
Can I add a gift message?
Yes. There’s a gift message box in the basket. We handwrite it on a card, put it in the box and leave the prices off.

Place a separate order for each address. For ten or more, email us at ahoy@barbuoy.co.uk and we’ll set them up for you.
I’m in Exmouth. Can I collect?
Yes. Choose collection at checkout. We can’t sell to walk-ins because of our licence, so please order first.
