Muddlebox Review - May 2020 - Home Cocktail Box

Muddlebox is a monthly home cocktail subscription box, delivering all the ingredients you need to make great tasting cocktails from the comfort of your own home. To help you find out more, we're delighted to welcome subscription box fan, Abi Sutton for her review of the May 2020 Muddlebox.

Hi everyone, my name is Abi and I'm a UK blogger based in Plymouth, Devon. At the start of lockdown I thought I'd give some subscription boxes a go, trying out some different things and make the most of a rubbish time for everyone.

Great Value

Like most, I love a good cocktail, so I was super excited to find a cocktail subscription box. The Muddlebox can be made for one to four people starting at £12 per box for one up to £24 per box for four. This box is such good value when you go out to a bar, a standard cocktail is around £8 each, so four drinks for £24 is such a bargain!

Each Muddlebox delivery includes everything you need to make the cocktails you like in the comfort of your home.

Having it as a monthly subscription is such a fun way of trialling new drinks, you've got the option to have it as a rolling monthly deal and can cancel at any time, or you have the option to pay upfront for 3, 6 or 12-month packages, so there's something to suit everyone. You can even set it up as a gift for someone too!

Easy signup and fast delivery

The setup process is straightforward, you're given a questionnaire, your answers give the experts at Muddlebox a list of spirit bases you do or don't like, whether you enjoy fruity or creamy drinks and what type of cocktails you prefer, long or short. It's a simple way to make sure you get the most out of your Muddlebox

After filling in my questionnaire, I eagerly waited for my box to arrive, it was very quick only taking 3 days from ordering to delivery.

Includes everything you need

In my box I got all the ingredients for an Alabama Slammer, a cocktail I'd never even heard of before! The box came with a purpose-made recipe card showing the ingredients, equipment and method which I've been able to keep long after the cocktail itself disappeared meaning I'll definitely be able to make this again.

The Alabama Slammer is a cocktail made with amaretto, Southern Comfort, sloe gin, and orange juice. Popular in deep south USA in the 1980's, the Alabama Slammer has enjoyed a revival thanks to popular bars such as TGI Friday's.

Overall Summary

The cocktail itself was super easy to make and was absolutely delicious. The Muddlebox is giving me the opportunity to try cocktails I'd never even think of, and I can't wait to see what arrives this month, this is certainly a subscription box I'll carry on doing!
