Love the idea of sipping healthy cocktails over Memorial Day Weekend?  KDHamptons recently discovered MixCraft cold-pressed cocktail mixtures, offering refreshing blends including: Watermelon, Habanero, Cucumber Basil, and detox Retox, Pineapple, and Ginger Mint. MixCraft mixes are vegan, naturally gluten-free, kosher, and contain GMOs. MixCraft shares their mantras with KDHamptons: Drink Fresh, Drink Well, and Drink Better: Through their partnership with 1% for the Planet, MixCraft donates a portion of proceeds from every sale to plant fruit trees around the world. Cheers to that! 

MixCraft shares, “To be good and full of vitamins a juice should never be heated, ever. That’s why we cold-press our juices with a hydraulic press juicer. Why? centrifugal juicers (the ones you see at the local juice bar) use a high-speed grinding method that creates heat and therefore speeding up the oxidation process of raw juice, which diminishes many valuable vitamins and nutrients. The cold-pressed method gently extracts juice by pressing the pulp of fruits and vegetables, which helps preserve the vitamins, minerals and enzymes. The result is a more nutritious, better tasting juice that lasts longer.”

MIXCRAFT COLD-PRESSED COCKTAIL MIXER CUCUMBER BASIL A soothing blend of cold-pressed cucumber juice and fresh-squeezed lime juice, with hints of basil and a touch of organic agave nectar for all-natural sweetness. All that at 60 calories per serving.

So which liquor should we pour with MIXCRAFT?  The MixCraft flavor combinations are endless, but all of our flavors pair exceptionally well with vodka and tequila. Pair gin with the Cucumber Basil, and the Spicy Citrus loves cava or whiskey. The Pineapple Ginger Mint flavor was blended with rum in mind and our Watermelon Habanero hits another level when mixed with an American gin. MixCraft is currently sold at a select group of gourmet grocery stores in NYC, and at Red Horse Market, Pierre’s Market, The Seafood Shop and the Amagansett Farmer’s Market in the Hamptons. MixCraft is also sold online via the website.
