Dragon Dreaming Drinks 2026 β Glass-Free BYO Cocktails for Wee Jasper
There's no bar at Dragon Dreaming. You are the bar.
Nothing is sold on site, and glass gets confiscated at the gate β so what you carry in on Thursday is what you're drinking until Monday. Twelve bar-made cocktails, sealed in pouches, clipped to a lanyard: both hands free for four days on a barefoot dancefloor.

Last orders 4pm Tuesday 22 SeptemberIt rained at the Mundi Mundi Bash. Nobody put their drink down.
Hundreds of Bash-goers took MXTOLOGY out onto the Mundi Mundi Plains last month. Then the rain came in. They clipped the pouch to the lanyard and kept dancing β both hands up, drink still going, nothing to spill and nothing to break. That's the whole idea: a bar cocktail you can wear. Dragon Dreaming is barefoot, fully BYO and four days long. It's the festival this was built for.
The Lakeside Pack β twelve rounds, one box.

Clip it on and dance with both hands.
Four days, four stages, no shoes. Your hands are for dancing, torches, tent zips and holding on to your mates β not for nursing a cup in the dark. Every MXTOLOGY order comes with a lanyard, and the pouch clips straight onto it.
- Wear it, don't carry it. The cocktail hangs on your chest. Both hands free, all night, every night.
- Reseal and wander. Cap it between sips and move between stages. Nothing spills, nothing gets left behind.
- Nothing to put down in the dark. No cup on the ground, no half-drink knocked over, nothing to hunt for at 3am.
- Barefoot-safe by design. This is a barefoot festival β that's exactly why glass is banned. A pouch can't break.
- Free lanyard with every order. The one Gordon Ramsay is wearing further down this page.
You do the ten-second shake. We did the ten years behind the bar.
These aren't premix. Every recipe is built to bar spec with real spirits and real citrus, mixed fresh in Australia, then sealed while it's still a cocktail. The last step β the bit a bartender does with a shaker β is yours, and it takes ten seconds.
Open
Crack the cap and let a breath of air in. The pouch expands like a shaker tin.
Close
Seal it back up tight. Now you're holding a shaker with the drink already in it.
Shake
Ten seconds. This is what builds the crema on the sours and lifts the citrus β exactly what a bartender's shaker does. A bottle can't. A can can't.
Sip
Straight from the pouch, or over ice in whatever's clean. Bar-quality, on a picnic rug by the water.
What a bar charges for an Espresso Martini, versus what one costs in the Lakeside Pack β no queue, no walk back, no closing time. And at Dragon Dreaming there's no bar to charge you at all.
Or stock the camp bar your way.
All eleven cocktails, lightest to strongest. Tap to add β mix any combo and the price drops automatically.
Mix any cocktails β the discount applies automatically at checkout. Building your own? Choose Express Post β 2 Day Delivery for $30 at checkout so it still lands before you leave. Free lanyard with every order.
βIβll just decant some spirits into soft drink bottles.β
Fair enough β plenty of people do, and it works. But it's a plan for getting drunk, not a plan for a good drink. Here's the honest comparison.
Half a dozen bottles of mystery
- Buy the spirits, the mixers, the limes and the ice β then find something to carry it all in.
- Pour it at home and hope you got the ratio right. No jigger at camp, no second chance.
- Pack cups, a knife, a board, a bottle opener, and something to wash them in.
- It's warm bourbon and flat cola by 9pm, and nobody knows how strong anything is.
- Cups and half-full bottles all over the site in the morning, and it all has to come home again.
One item. Already a cocktail.
- Made at bar spec by people who do this for a living, with real spirits and real citrus.
- Ten seconds of shaking is the entire preparation. No measuring, no mixers, no shaker.
- The pouch is the vessel β nothing to pack, nothing to wash, nothing to break.
- Icy cold from the esky, and exactly as strong as the label says: 0.9β1.6 standard drinks.
- Reseals, clips to the lanyard, and packs out flat when you bump out.
Both plans get you a drink. Only one of them tastes like the bar you'd actually choose. And at $12β$14 a cocktail, it's cheaper than the round you'd buy anywhere with a bar.
Why it works on the lake bank.
Glass gets confiscated
Security checks the gate and the grounds. Pouches are glass-free and crush-proof, so nothing of yours gets taken.
A real cocktail, no bar
Nothing is sold on site. This is the only way to have an Espresso Martini at Wee Jasper on a Saturday night.
Hands-free on the lanyard
Clip it on and wear your cocktail. Both hands back for the dancefloor. Free lanyard with every order.
Nothing else to pack
No spirits, no mixers, no cups, no limes. Twelve pouches and your bar is stocked for the whole four days.
Express Post included
Built into the $159 on this pack, not an upsell at checkout. We post from Mitchell in Canberra β about an hour from the gate.
Keeps 12 months
CitrusFreshβ’ keeps them fresher than 98% of bars, so whatever camp doesn't get through comes home just as good.
βYou've given people their most valuable resource back. Their time. It's bloody brilliant.β
What festival-goers say about the cocktails in this pack.
Verified Okendo reviews left on the individual MXTOLOGY cocktails inside the Lakeside Pack, by people who took them camping and to festivals.
Pick me up!!
βBought for the Mundi Mundi Bash, these were just the little pick me up, either as a starter or as s nice finisher. No glass makes them a perfect festival and travel additionβ
Amazing summer party starter
βLuv luv luved these babies....... was able to socialise and dance while not putting my drink down. These should be available at every club and festivalβ
Best way to drink
βOne of my favorite cocktails in the easiest way to drink it. Even better that it's in a pouch, and attached to the lanyard... No glass means I can be in more places with my drink.β
Delicious
βUnreal got to carry away with the lanyardβ
Love the party box!
βI've been loving using the party box for a lucky dip drink every day. Very impressed with how good they taste (just like the real thing!). These would be ideal for camping or a picnic. Cheers!β
Mai Tai
βNo glass, no swag, Just rum in a bag. Sip, smile, relax Tastes like beach and snacks.β
Can you take your own alcohol to Dragon Dreaming?
Yes β and you'll need to, because Dragon Dreaming is a fully BYO festival with no alcohol sold anywhere on site. Two rules matter: glass is prohibited and security checks for it at the front gate and within the grounds (anything found is confiscated), and security also screens for excessive quantities, so bring a sensible amount of something good rather than a lot of something bad. MXTOLOGY suits that neatly β each pouch is a complete, bar-quality cocktail (8.7β16% ABV, 0.9β1.6 standard drinks) in an unbreakable, resealable 130ml pouch that clips to a lanyard. Wee Jasper is a long way from a bottle shop, so order online before you travel: the Lakeside Pack includes Express Post from Canberra, about an hour from the gate.
Four things worth sorting before you drive to Wee Jasper.
None of it is complicated β but it's a lot easier to sort in your driveway than at the gate:
- Fully BYO β nothing is sold on site. Whatever you bring in is what you have for four days. Pack the weekend you actually want.
- Glass is banned outright. Security checks for glass at the gate and throughout the grounds; anything found is confiscated. Pouches clear it without a second look.
- Bring a sensible amount. Security also screens for excessive quantities of alcohol β pace it, and pack quality over volume. Twelve labelled pouches across four days is comfortable for one person.
- Early entry opens Thursday 24 September. If you're going up a day early, your delivery needs to land before then β so order sooner rather than later.
β Into the grounds
No glass of any kind β it's checked at the gate and inside, and it's confiscated. No excessive quantities. Nothing is sold on site, so there's no fallback bar.
β At your camp and on the dancefloor
Your own drinks are welcome. A sealed, resealable pouch on a lanyard is about as easy as it gets β and it's barefoot-safe.
Express Post is included on this pack. The festival is next weekend, so standard post no longer makes it. Every Lakeside Pack ships on AusPost Express β it's included in the $159, so there's nothing to select and nothing added at checkout. We dispatch from Mitchell in Canberra, roughly an hour up the road from Wee Jasper, so for the ACT and the Southern Tablelands this is effectively an overnight run. Order by 4pm Tuesday 22 September and it lands before you head for the lake.
Dragon Dreaming drinks, answered.
What's in the Lakeside Pack?
Twelve pouches, weighted to the crowd-pleasers: 2Γ Pornstar Martini and 2Γ Espresso Martini, plus one each of Tommy's Margarita, PiΓ±a Colada, Fabulous Cosmopolitan, Elderflower Gin Gimlet, Aussie Berry Bliss, Shiso Sour, Granny Smith Fireball and Amaretto Whisky Sour. $159 with Express Post included β last orders 4pm Tuesday 22 September.
Is there a bar at Dragon Dreaming?
No. Dragon Dreaming is a fully BYO festival with no alcohol sold on site. Whatever you bring in is what you have for the four days β which is exactly why it's worth bringing something you'll actually enjoy on the Sunday night.
Can I take glass in?
No. Glass is prohibited and security checks for it at the front gate and within the grounds β anything found is confiscated. It's a barefoot festival, so the ban is taken seriously. MXTOLOGY pouches are completely glass-free and crush-proof.
Is there a limit on how much I can bring?
The organisers don't publish a fixed per-person allowance, but security screens for excessive amounts of alcohol at the gate and asks everyone to be responsible. Twelve pouches across four days is a comfortable, sensible amount for one person. Check the festival's current conditions before you pack.
Will it arrive in time?
Yes, if you order by 4pm Tuesday 22 September. Every Lakeside Pack ships on AusPost Express as part of the $159, and we dispatch from Mitchell in Canberra β about an hour from Wee Jasper β so the ACT, the Southern Tablelands, the Riverina and Sydney are all comfortably covered before gates. Early camping entry opens Thursday 24 September, so if you're heading up a day early, order sooner rather than later.
How does the hands-free lanyard work?
Every order comes with a free MXTOLOGY lanyard, and the pouch clips straight onto it β so the cocktail hangs on your chest and both hands stay free. Reseal the cap between sips and you can move between stages without putting your drink down anywhere.
Are these actually bar-quality, or are they premix?
Bar-quality. Every recipe is built to bar spec with real top-shelf spirits and real citrus, mixed fresh in Australia at 8.7β16% ABV, then sealed. The one step left is the shake β ten seconds in the pouch does exactly what a bartender's shaker does, including building the crema on the sours. Gordon Ramsay chose them for his winning team on Food Stars, and 1,200+ verified reviews average 4.9 stars.
How do you drink a cocktail pouch?
Open Β· Close Β· Shake Β· Sip: unscrew the cap to let air in, close the lid, shake for ten seconds to liven the citrus and build the crema, then drink straight from the spout β or pour it over ice. No shaker, no mixers, nothing to wash up.
Is twelve enough for four days?
Most people land around 2β3 a day, so a twelve-pack is roughly three a night across the festival for one person, or a nightly round for a group of three or four. With no bar on site, it pays to bring what you actually want. Anything left keeps for months and comes home with you.
How many standard drinks is a pouch?
Between 0.9 and 1.6 standard drinks depending on the cocktail (8.7β16% ABV), printed on every label β much easier to pace across four days than free-pouring spirits at camp.
When is Dragon Dreaming 2026?
25β28 September 2026, with early camping entry from Thursday 24 September, at 542 Caves Rd, Wee Jasper NSW on the shore of Lake Burrinjuck β about an hour from Canberra and 90 minutes from Yass.
