Ninja Your Cocktails with Neon Tiger
By Co-Founder Pete
Flames and smoke, swivel and shake. Lights, camera, action! Cocktails bring excitement and fun to any bar, if not some overly wasted individuals in tow. So what’s the catch? Cocktails require time, training, staff, and development– all luxuries you might not have while running a busy bar in Hong Kong. We all love seeing amazing cocktails on Instagram, but when it gets hectic at the bar, it’s unlikely you’ll be able to keep up the pace. Customers want their drinks, and this can lead to hassle and trouble, especially if some jerk orders 20 mojitos or whisky sours all at once – enjoy your meltdown my dude.
The Big Problem
Look it: whisky cokes, sodas, and gin and tonics simply bore everyone to death. People drink them because there’s nothing else available. Sadly, most customers at bars accept this reality. They might switch Coke for Diet Coke or perhaps choose a juice instead. And a really sh*t tasting juice from concentrate. In the end, what you get is uninspiring and lame. We can all do better – drinkers of the world unite!
Enter the Tiger
Let’s go, Neon Tiger! I’m not just saying this because I’m a co-founder of this company. Well, I kinda am, but f#ck it, hear me out. When you mix Neon Tiger Pink Guava, Passionfruit and Calamansi, or Mekong Delta Mango with your favourite spirit, amazing things happen. Our sophisticated Asian flavours are simple to mix with spirits and a garnish. The result is a complex cocktail that is delicious, easy, and quick to make. Take the stress out of it all and give your customers the high-quality cocktails they deserve – without needing a PhD in cocktail science, artistry, or staff with degrees in rocket propulsion.
Our cocktail/mocktail recipes are in our book “The Art of Refreshment”. Download it here.
My Stamp of Approval
Does my stamp of approval mean anything to you? Maybe not! But I approach this from a genuine perspective. As a DJ, I often go for whisky cokes, sodas, gin and tonics, or perhaps a “skinny bitch” (vodka soda). Do I want to? Not necessarily, but it’s often the only choice at many bars. That’s why I created Neon Tiger: to offer a delicious, full-flavour, yet less sweet alternative to mainstream sodas, with no artificial sweeteners. So, if you’re struggling to make good, interesting, and easy cocktails for your bar, drop us a line today!
Let’s drink REAL and drink BETTER! Viva la revolución!
