The favourite cocktails for each country
Funkin believes that to shake the best cocktail, you have to use the best ingredients. That’s why they use real fruit to create their products, famous amongst the best bartenders all around the world.
Popularity isn’t everything!
It’s fascinating to see the differences across the globe for which cocktails are the favourite around each country.
There definitely seems to be a theme in the most popular cocktails: refreshing with a hint of something tropical, to feel like you’re being whisked away to warmer climates with every sip.
While it had stiff competition, Margarita grabbing the top spot as the world’s favourite cocktail is no surprise to me, after all, it’s even got its own glass!
