Cocktail Playing Cards

The ultimate cocktail reference guide. All the cocktails you need to know, and how to make them, in one deck of quality playing cards. The team behind the project hit 3,000% of the target on Kickstarter and now the cards are available.

Who are the cards for?

A lot of us are spending more time at home these days, so what better time to perfect your cocktail knowledge and experiment with bottles of spirits gathering dust on a shelf. Or if you can get to a bar, take the cards with you for some lucky dip cocktail tasting! Also perfect for the backlog of hen and stag dos later this year. The cards would make a great gift for anyone who might want to know how to make classic cocktails, or just for playing card card games, cardistry and magic tricks.

The card design

We designed the fronts to show the 52 cocktail recipes in a clear and simple way. In addition to the standard card values in diagonally opposite corners, each card has four sections showing: cocktail name, ingredients, how to make it, and what glass to use.

The cards are a deck of 52 regular (poker-sized) playing cards with the usual suits of spades, hearts, diamonds and clubs and will be printed in the UK on quality playing card stock.

While the fronts of the cards are simple and informative, the backs are beautiful. We wanted the cards to initially look like regular playing cards, so the design takes inspiration from classic playing card design. However, if you look more closely you'll see that every element of the design is cocktail themed.

The front of the cards show 52 cocktail recipes in a clear and simple way. In addition to the standard card values in diagonally opposite corners, each card has four sections showing:

• Cocktail name

• Ingredients

• How to make it

• What glass to use

The cards are printed in the UK on professional grade playing card stock.
