KOPPARBERG TROPICAL RUM PUNCH
Has quite a strong strawberry flavour, which isn't tropical to me, and a strong alcohol taste despite being 5%. With these kinds of drinks, I don't think you should really taste the alcohol, that's the beauty of a fruity cocktail.

NIO CHRISTMAS IN MANHATTAN
Not my cup of tea, basically a Manhattan with a touch of creme de cacao. Maybe I'm biased, I don't really like whisky outside a sour.

NIO WINTER SIDECAR
So simple you could easily make it yourself (I'm pretty sure it's just brandy and triple sec) but this is very drinkable. I've been impressed with Nio so far.

NIO APPLE RUM PUNCH
Not bad, it's got a decent ABV and a perfectly acceptable taste. Christmas cocktails are arguably an abomination, but can also be quite tasty.

WHITEBOX SQUEEZY'S MARGARITA
Now *that's* a cocktail. A real Margarita in a can. Sure, it's not as fresh as the real thing, but it's the closest I've come to in a can.

M&S SMOKED PINEAPPLE DAIQUIRI
I don't know whether I like it or it's just overpowering me, but it's certainly something. Not a daiquiri, the main flavours are pineapple and smoked whisky, but this is certainly a cocktail. Served with a slice of pineapple this would definitely impress.

FUNKIN' LIME MARGARITA
I don’t know why you would feel the need to infuse a margarita with nitrogen, but it’s a very easy drink, helped by the fact it’s only 5%. In my opinion, it's not really a cocktail though, it's a cocktail-flavoured alcopop!

Not very nice. I think maybe I don't like Mojitos, but there's no acid and the mint flavour is really artificial.

M&S WHISKY SOUR
Very drinkable. More of a whisky lemonade because the first ingredient is carbonated water. For that reason it lacks the punch of a real whisky sour (possibly my favourite cocktail), but still nice. Would be great at a party.
