NEW YORK, Aug. 7, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- The Glenlivet Speyside single malt scotch whisky continues to break conventions with the introduction of The Glenlivet Twist & Mix Cocktails, a new line of premium, ready-to-serve, whisky-based cocktails. Using first-to-market technology, the new innovation proves that quality and accessibility are not mutually exclusive – simply twist the cap to mix a burst of cocktail flavorings into The Glenlivet single malt and you have a high-quality, freshly-mixed cocktail. The newest offering from the #1 single malt scotch whisky brand¹ elevates at-home entertaining with loved ones by providing a premium, crafted experience without the hassle of leftover ingredients, complex recipes and bar equipment.

The collection is debuting with the Old Fashioned and New Manhattan, bringing the two most popular whisky cocktails served in restaurants² to consumers' homes and offering convenience without sacrificing quality. Maintaining the flavor profiles of the beloved classics, the silky taste of the Old Fashioned is achieved with the tasting notes of orange, nutmeg and cinnamon, while the New Manhattan is a testament to the timeless classic featuring notes of cherry and ginger. The popular cocktails are ready-to-serve with three simple steps: twist the cap, watch it mix, and pour over ice to share and enjoy.
