With indoor dining and drinking finally opening up this month, May has got off to a promising start. We certainly enjoyed April’s heatwave and are very much looking forward to plenty more scorchers – aka an excuse to bulk-buy our newest obsession: LoneWolf x Regal Rogue cocktail pouches.
Here’s a snapshot of what Domino Communications has in store this month…
First up, we’ve done some matchmaking. A December introduction between BrewDog Distilling Co’s LoneWolf Gin and Regal Rogue vermouth led to a very tasty collaboration indeed: LoneWolf x Regal Rogue cocktail pouches. These super-slick pouches come in four delicious flavour combos:
· Bold Wolf Negroni is a classic negroni made using equal measures of LoneWolf London Dry gin, Regal Rogue’s Bold Red vermouth and Campari.
· Lively Wolf Martini is created using LoneWolf London Dry gin and Regal Rogue’s Lively White vermouth, is a clean cut and flavoursome amped up spin on a classic Martini.
· Paw Star Martini uses LoneWolf’s Cactus and Lime gin and Regal Rogue’s Daring Dry vermouth to create a tropical, passionfruit-forward flavour bomb.
· Wild Wolf Sour uses LoneWolf Cloudy Lemon gin and Regal Rogue Wild Rosé vermouth. It has a little sweetness, a little tartness, and a tonne of character.
To top it off, they’re priced at £25 for the 4 cocktails, the packaging is gorgeous and 100% sustainable. Need we say more?

We welcomed our newest client, GIMBER, just in time for Earth Day. GIMBER is an alcohol-free drink packed with the best organic ginger, lemon, herbs and spices to make your taste buds tango. Simply put, GIMBER is 0% alcohol, 100% taste, and 200% bite. Why not try their perfect serve when you fancy switching up the alcohol with friends?
The Sun called Craft Rum Club “the gift that keeps on giving”, and we couldn’t agree more. Their April box came with a wonderful Piña Colada theme, and we can’t wait to see what May has in store.
With outdoor drinking back in full force, we’d like to propose a toast – and who better to assist than Crystal Head Vodka? How about a refreshing Crystal Cosmo with their Aurora vodka? It’s crisp, gently floral, with a hint of pepper and is sure to raise the home cocktail bar game with its stunning bottle inspired by the Aurora Borealis.
45ml Crystal Head Aurora vodka
15ml triple sec or Cointreau
30ml Cranberry juice
Lime squeeze
Orange Peel
Add Crystal Head Aurora, cranberry juice, triple sec / Cointreau and lime juice in a shaker filled with ice. Shake vigorously until chilled and strain into a chilled martini glass. Garnish by twisting orange peel to release citrus oils, then drop into cocktail.
Crystal Head Aurora is £52.85 available from Master of Malt.
