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.
