Eden–
Really cool idea, but didn’t taste that great
+ PROS: Pretty packaging, easy to pour, pre mixed, low carb
- CONS:Tastes like watered down juice and artificial sweeteners - needs more alcohol
Packaging was pretty, unfortunately it just tasted like watered down juice which was a bit disappointing. With some work I think it would be a good product
+ PROS: Nice packaging, good concept/idea
- CONS:Taste wasn’t very good

Flavour tastes quite artificial, doesn’t really taste as premium as the packaging would suggest.
+ PROS: Not overly sweet! Would be great to add into a punch too. Great option for low calorie and is quite light.
- CONS:Could be higher percent for a cocktail. Can taste the sweetners in the after taste. But I didn't mind, I like low sugar drinks.

I liked that it was pre mixed so it was super easy for a get together. It was close to the best before date so not sure if that affected the taste. I would have liked more passion fruit flavour
+ PROS: Easy to use, good colours
- CONS:Could have had more flavour

It was okay, but definitely tasted like cordial. Would be okay mixed with lemonade. Probably wouldn’t buy again. Not keen on the box, because it’s makes it harder for taking to a party/gathering.
+ PROS: Easy to pour from the tap mechanism.
- CONS:Not easily transportable, would need a cup at a party. Bladder not recyclable.

By the time I received mine it had already expired. But only by a day or two so I thought I’d still give it a go. Not a great taste. Very artificial tasting and yet bland. Leaves a strange feeling in the mouth. And nowhere near as strong as a “cocktail” should be. This is just a poorly rebranded RTD.
+ PROS: Easy to dispense. Good for sharing.
- CONS:Bad taste, tacky packaging and branding

Received however by the time I got to it which was only a couple of days after receiving noticed it had passed it’s best before date of 26th July. Tastes like cordial/raro. Horrible after taste and gritty. Definitely would not be a repeat purchase
+ PROS: Pretty box, easy to pour, 99% sugar free
- CONS:Terrible flavour and not a very attractive name ‘basic babe’

Looked pretty, and I was so excited.
Tasted awful, unfortunately. I tolerated it with some extra sprite, but unfortunately wasn’t pleasant.
+ PROS: Sugar free.
Pretty package
- CONS:Flavour

The packaging is pretty and the description sounds great, that’s about where it stops sadly. It has a strange aftertaste, and smells almost musty. I tried mine chilled on ice and it tasted like old raro, I added some sprite which made it more palatable but overall sadly a big miss : (
+ PROS: Packaging
Sugar Free
- CONS:Everything else

I received this product on 26/07/22 and its best before date was 21/07/22. This is my first ever product that I received to review and first of all, bad impressions. Why would you even think of sending it? Secondly, the packaging looked like it had oil stains on it. I was looking forward to trying it regardless because it was sugar-free and I love a good alternative. THIS WAS NOT IT! The taste was weird and I had tried it with my flatmates who didn’t enjoy it either. The packing looked fun but the experience and taste would be more for 18-year-olds looking for a larger quantity that was sugar-free and pretty packaging. The tap was pretty bad too and actually didn’t even look like the one in the product picture. Mine was black.
+ PROS: fun packaging
comes with tap
easy travel
easily disposable
Good shape
- CONS:bad taste
tap not strong enough
tastes like watered down raro
Doesn't have a handle for carrying
the name sounds basic
Tattoos were tacky and cheap

Fun packaging is appealing, but the taste was too weird to enjoy. We sampled this with a group of 4 of us, half way through ended up mixing Cider with it to give it some flavor and fizz. Didn’t resemble a martini flavor to us at all unfortunately. I wouldn’t purchase this again.
+ PROS: Fun & bright packaging
tap/valve is really good quality, it didn't leak at all
Good quantity
- CONS:Weird taste
Bad aftertaste
Could hardly taste the alcohol
Watery raro
