"Funkin yuk (take 2!)"
Although I liked the concept of the product and they were easy to use, I did not enjoy the taste! I found them extremely bitter when mixed with spirits and didn't drink the whole glass...however, I am wondering if this may be because I omitted the ice?!? (Well, it was snowy and cold and I didn't have any icecubes in freezer! lol). May have to try again at a nice summer BBQ. I also haven't seen these in any supermarkets in my area.

"something a little different"
I was a bit sceptical when I got these as knew was gonna have to try them alcohol free. They actually surprised me as they tasted so nice(my SIL didn't realise they had no alcohol in LOL) Price wise they are good value for an occasional treat but def not for everyday use. Also found my DD(22months) enjoyed them(kept wondering where it was disappearing to lol) I still haven't seen these in my local supermarket though so will need to find more to celebrate my 30th with. If you were having a party then it would be best if they came in cartons or even resealable bottles

"tasty xmas treat!"
I saved my sachets for xmas day so that I could join in the festivities. I thought I would have to stick to boring orange juice or spring water whilst everyone else enjoyed the traditional fizz and cocktails. However I was pleasantly surprised when I tried the sachets- they were so tasty! I think they are a great idea and I bet they are even scrummier mixed with your favourite tipple! I hope as well as the handy sachets that they do cartons or bottles

"Fantastic Product"
I loved these and think they are a fantastic idea. I took them to a cocktail party and it meant I was able to join in and have my own alcohol free ones. The cosmopolitan one was my fave mixed with some lemonade and loads of ice.
They are good value for money at 99p each as it would cost a lot more to make your own and you would have to be doing it in a larger quantity. I also found them pretty simple to use you just add some spirits or soda water with the sachet in a glass, really cant get any easier. I will definately be getting them again over the festive period.

"Great value"
Great value for money- had to have an alcohol free cocktail but was really tasty. Will be buying more to drink over the christmas period. Easy to use with clear instructions of how to make the cocktails.

"Nice and easy"
I ,like other mums thought they would have alcohol in them and expected them to be a thicker consistency.
Saying that the strawberry daqueri is yummy, the mojito is for mint lovers(not for me) and the cosmopolitan for cranberry lovers.
All in all-nice and easy for the busy mums to have a quick scrummy treat.

"great buy "
Well what can I say. Funkin cocktail mixers are fab. I chickened out of using them with spirits though with working and having little one I decided me and megan would try them together. They went down a hit with soda water. Not something I would usually drink however with these fab mixers it worked great togetheR. The Mojito (lemon and lime) was so nice, megan wanted more hehe. The strawberry Daiquri was my favorite though.
These make a perfect soft cocktail and im sure using spirits would be even better ;). Overall a great hit with my lot and we are now looking to order different flavours for over christmas (we have a lot of non-drinkers) so everyone can enjoy the great taste of funkin cocktails. And you never know I may even brave a real alcohol one soon.

"Yum Yum Yum Yum Yum"
Basically these are fab and a must for anyone having a home celebration over the christams / new year period. They are so cheap and yet soooo yummy.
Simple to use just add the pouch to the spirit (or soda water for the drivers!) and presto a cocktail in seconds.
I tried one with rum and one with soda and although I did prefer my mojito with rum the strawberry daiquiri with soda water was very nice (and even Josh had a little sip and liked it!)
I will defintaly be buying more to celebrate over the christmas period and as they are available in a lot of supermarkets and are so cheap it puts that little sparke into the drinks choice.
Fantastic products - note to self - must try more :)

"Tastebud tingler"
Firstly i thought the packaging was quite funky like the name but initially i was under the impression that they had alcohol in already.
They were very easy to open and can be stored in the fridge if you do not use it all.
Tried these with soda water and crushed ice as i am not a great lover of spirits.
They all tasted fantastic and my daughter had a little bit also.
I did see these at my local supermarket over the weekend priced at 97p each. I do think it is a little expensive for one cocktail however considering what they charge in bars it is quite cheap.
I do think that these will also be a great treat for non drinkers as a change to the boring coke and lemonade.

"Delicious drinkies"
These drink mixers are gorgeous and such a great concept. The funky packaging caught my eye but I was initially disappointed when I saw they were mixers for alcoholic drinks. However, checking the website, I soon realised that virgin cocktails were also a go-er! (Being a mum to an insomniac toddler means alcohol in the evenings is rare in our house).
My personal favourite is the Mojito, made with soda water and lots of crushed ice. Absolutely delicious and a bargain at 99p. Even with a shot of rum in it, this pack would still only cost a quarter of what you would be charged for a Mojito in a bar in London.
Really convenient to keep in the cupboard and for impressing guests at Christmas. Safe to say we will be stocking up on quite a few packs this festive season!
