If you’re looking to up the ante on your cocktail making expertise, then why not try something a little outside the box: extra virgin olive oil! Best Olive oil can be utilised in the making of the cocktail, or drizzled on top for an additional flavour and unique texture. You can choose from our variety of infused extra virgin olive oil to really bring your drink to life, or one of our extra virgin olive oil to complement the cocktail’s pre-existing flavours.

Don’t worry about the whole drink separating, just add an egg white: cocktails have used eggs, whether whole or parts of, for a long time now. The whites contain a certain set of proteins that aid in emulsifying water and oil together, and therefore go hand in hand with olive oil in adding a new and delicious dimension to your favourite alcoholic beverages.

If having extra virgin olive oil bonding with eggs isn’t quite your idea of a delicious drink, then there is always the option of drizzling the oil onto the finished cocktail for a boost of flavour. Adding extra virgin olive oil via a dropper can delicately garnish the cocktail in terms of both decoration and flavour, adding just a hint of the rich and powerful aroma and taste you receive with our extra virgin olive oil.
