This Valentine's Day, Nub News is bringing you the ultimate home cocktail revolution.

Forget struggling with messy fruit, endless prep, or bland, uninspired drink: Little Mixers is here to transform your evenings into a professional cocktail experience, right from your own kitchen.

And there is an exclusive 15% discount for Nub News Readers.

We have teamed up with Little Mixers to show you how you can create bar-quality cocktails in seconds, with real fruit flavours that taste like magic.

Whether you are planning a romantic night in, a cosy gathering, or simply want to impress your loved one, this is the cocktail breakthrough you did not know you needed.

Why Little Mixers is a game-changer

Little Mixers is nothing short of a home bartending revolution.

Its premium UK-made purées and juices (think strawberry, passion fruit, raspberry, mixed berry, white peach, plus pure lime and lemon juices) deliver deep, authentic fruit flavour without any chopping, peeling, or fuss.

  • 90% real fruit in every carton
  • Ready-to-pour packaging
  • Fully recyclable
  • Professional bar-quality at home

It is a cocktail innovation that will surprise and delight anyone who has tired of the same old drinks.

A Strawberry Daiquiri, a Passion Fruit Pornstar Martini, or a Berry Bliss Spritz. All in minutes, all tasting like they came straight from a top-tier bar.

Why cocktails at home are growing

The night in is the new night out. More people are choosing to entertain at home.

It is more relaxed, more cost-effective, and you are in full control of the ingredients, the music, and the pace of the evening.
