Automated cocktail & mocktail system
Bar-quality drinks in 10 seconds.
An automated countertop system for venues that pour at volume. Pick a drink on the touchscreen and it's designed to measure, mix and serve it the same way every time, without a mixologist on shift.
Product images are concept renders.
Why venues need it
Demand isn't the bottleneck. Service is.
Drink volumes keep rising, but most bars still depend on one skilled person behind the counter.
Labour costs
Wages and overheads keep eating into drink margins.
Skill shortages
One trained mixologist on leave can slow the whole bar.
Uneven quality
The same drink tastes different across outlets and shifts.
Speed at peak
Busy venues need fast, repeatable service, not a queue.

FAQ
Questions venues and partners ask us
What is the Cocktails & Such system?
It's an automated countertop machine for cocktails and mocktails. Staff pick a drink on a touchscreen, and the system is designed to measure, mix and chill it from sealed bottles or a capsule, so the same recipe comes out every time without a trained mixologist on shift.
How fast does it make a drink?
It's designed to serve a drink in 10 seconds. A bartender making the same drink by hand usually takes 3 to 5 minutes. These are target figures from our own product material.
Do staff need bartending skills to use it?
No. The system is designed so entry-level staff can run it. The touchscreen menu runs in several languages, and the measures are pre-calibrated, so nobody has to free-pour.
Can it make mocktails as well as cocktails?
Yes. It pours both, which suits family venues like theme parks as well as hotel bars and clubs.
Which venues is it designed for?
Hotels and resorts, airport lounges and cruise ships, bars, cafés and clubs, stadiums and event venues, and theme parks. Any place that needs fast, consistent drinks at volume.
Can we buy or lease the machine?
Both options are planned: outright purchase or lease. Drink capsules and our bulk syrups are bought on top, and recipe updates add new drinks over time.
Do you sell syrups on their own?
Yes. We've made our own syrups since 2013. The Two Minute Cocktail range covers fruit flavours like lychee, sour plum, peach and mint, and our coffee range covers flavours like hazelnut, salted caramel and pandan. They come in 1-litre café bottles and 5-litre packs for hotels, restaurants and caterers.
Are you looking for distributors?
Yes. We're appointing country and state distributors, and we want to hear from hospitality groups that would like to trial the system. Send us the form or WhatsApp us on +60 11-1061 9111.
