First it was meal kits, and now it's drinks kits, with Australia’s first online cocktail subscription box ready to deliver.

Founded by Cameron Northway, founder and managing director of drinks experience agency Sweet&Chilli and co-founder of Bondi’s bar restaurant Rocker, Cocktail Porter delivers bartender-designed cocktail kits to homes across metro Australia.

The Sydney-born concept was launched after identifying a surge in off-premise sales as a result of increased at home entertaining occasions and an uptake in food delivery services.

With a different cocktail delivered each month, each kit contains the latest trends in cocktails from bars around Australia and the world, along with easy-to-follow recipes, pre-measured premium spirits, tailored mixers and quality ingredients to create simple but delicious tipples.

The kits make between 14 to 18 cocktails per box with Cocktail Porter initially launching four signature one-off classic cocktail boxes and a limited edition Monthly Membership Box.

Monthly Members Boxes are priced at $135 per month with each kit making a minimum of 14 cocktails, meaning subscribers spend less than $10 per drink.

Packaging News

The ACCC has instituted court proceedings against Clorox Australia, owner of GLAD-branded kitchen and garbage bags, over alleged false claims that bags were partly made of recycled 'ocean plastic'.

In news that is disappointing but not surprising given the recent reports on the unfolding Qenos saga, the new owner of Qenos has placed the company into voluntary administration. The closure of the Qenos Botany facility has also been confirmed.

An agreement struck between Cleanaway and Viva Energy will see the two companies undertake a prefeasibility assessment of a circular solution for soft plastics and other hard-to-recycle plastics.
