‘UK’s first’ cocktail drone delivery service launching in Nottingham this summer

The ‘UK’s first’ cocktail drone delivery service is launching in select cities this summer, including here in Nottingham. 

The new service has been created by a partnership between bar chain Revolución de Cuba rum brand Havana Club. 

For a limited time, alcohol-lovers will be able to order cocktails from the comfort of their own home. 

The drinks will then be “expertly landed without spilling a drop”. 

Only certain cities, including Nottingham, Derby, Leeds and Manchester, will be covered by the new service. 

Launching from the start of August, customers will receive a selection of hand-crafted drinks including Banana Hammock, Tutti Fruiti and Cuban Sangria. 

Alex McMillan, Brand Operations Director at Revolution Bar Groups, said: “This summer we wanted to deliver an innovative new way of serving up some of our best known cocktails whilst also making the most of the British summer - even if the sunshine is short lived!

“There have been drone cafés, restaurants and even drone waiters seen before, but we believe we’re the first in the UK to fly drones delivering refreshing summer cocktails to our guests in their own homes.

“We’ve worked closely with Havana Club Rum to create delicious cocktails that are perfect for summer and now with the help of our drone, can be delivered straight to you - but be quick as it’s for a limited time only!”

“We expect demand to be high so get your requests in and we’ll get the cocktails mixed up and out in the skies to find you and your friends enjoying the sunshine.”
