Cocktail types and recipes alone are not sufficient for businesses to successfully tap into the potential of mixed drinks. Instead, these data must be integrated with more granular information on the drivers that influence purchases and, crucially, how these differ from the average On Premise user. For instance, cocktail drinkers exhibit a stronger preference for good value (43% vs. 38% of average drinkers). Therefore, businesses must ensure that the quality of drinks consistently justifies the price point and is perceived as worth paying a premium for, especially when compared to other categories. This is particularly crucial when competing with beer, which is perceived as offering standout value for money.
