Discover the Best Cocktail Recipes for Our Infusion Kits


One of our favorite things about cocktail infusions is how effortless they make entertaining (or a quiet night in). With just one jar, you can create elevated cocktails that feel thoughtful and a little magical — no complicated bar setup required.

Each Ritual + Root cocktail infusion is designed so the infused liquid becomes the star of the drink. Once your jar has finished infusing, simply strain and use the liquid as your primary alcohol base. From there, you can keep things classic or dress it up with a splash of something bubbly or citrusy.

Below, you’ll find 2 simple cocktail recipes for each infusion, plus an easy mocktail option if you’re skipping alcohol.
