Frequently Asked Questions
Everything about MXTOLOGY ready-to-drink cocktail pouches — how they work, how strong they are, delivery, and keeping them fresh.
The basics
What is a MXTOLOGY cocktail pouch?
A single-serve, ready-to-drink cocktail in a resealable 130ml pouch — made with real spirits and fresh ingredients, right here in Australia. Chill it, give it a shake and drink straight from the pouch or pour over ice. No mixing, no measuring, no glass.
Do I need a cocktail shaker?
No — that's one of the best things about a pouch. Just open the spout to let some air in, close the lid, then shake it like a cocktail shaker and sip. You'll have a perfectly shaken cocktail ready to drink from the pouch or pour into a glass. If you do have a shaker and ice handy you'll get a slightly nicer crema, but it's not needed — the pouch does the work.
Can I drink it straight from the pouch?
Absolutely. Drink it straight from the pouch, or pour it over ice into your favourite glass — whatever suits the moment. The resealable spout means no spills either way.
Strength & serving
How strong are MXTOLOGY cocktails?
The range runs from 8.7% to 16% ABV, which is roughly 0.9 to 1.6 standard drinks per 130ml pouch. Every pouch shows its exact ABV and standard drinks on the rear label, and each product page lists them too. MXTOLOGY is real alcohol — 18+ only, please enjoy responsibly.
Do I need to refrigerate my cocktails?
We highly recommend it. The quality and longevity of the cocktails improve greatly with refrigeration, and they simply taste better ice-cold. When you're ready to drink, serve them as cold as possible — straight from the fridge or an esky.
Ordering, pricing & delivery
How much do they cost?
Single pouches are $14. Mix and match any flavours and the price drops: 3 or more is $13 each, and 6 or more is $12 each — build your own mixed case on the Build Your Case page. Prefer to stock up on one flavour? Grab a 10-pack for $120 ($12 a pouch).
Do you deliver across Australia?
Yes — we ship Australia-wide, with free shipping on orders over $60. Everything is made fresh in Australia and dispatched quickly so it arrives in great shape.
Can I send MXTOLOGY as a gift?
You can. Send a mixed case or a 10-pack straight to someone's door, or grab a Bar Tab gift card and let them pick their own favourites. Great for birthdays, thank-yous and "just because".
Can I order for a party or event?
Made for it. The Party Packs 10-packs are our best per-pouch price, and The Whole Gang gives you one of every flavour. Planning something bigger (a venue, hotel or function)? See our partnership options or get in touch.
Storage & freshness
How long do they last?
Unopened and stored cool, our cocktails have a shelf life of 12 to 18 months — each pouch has a "Best Enjoyed Fresh Before" guide on the rear label. We remove the oxygen during manufacturing and microbe-test our pouches with none present, so they keep beautifully. That said, for the best possible taste we recommend enjoying them within about a week of your order arriving.
Once opened, how long do they keep?
We recommend drinking a pouch once it's open. If you'd like to save some for later, just squeeze the pouch to push out the air, reseal the lid, and it will keep for about another week in the fridge.
Do I have to be 18+?
Yes. MXTOLOGY cocktails contain real alcohol and are only sold to adults aged 18 and over. Please enjoy responsibly.
