Easter can be an incredibly busy time for a lot of us! Purchasing the perfect tasting gifts for loved ones, fitting in some spring cleaning, and cooking up some delicious bank holiday meals – it can all take its toll after a while.
I’m with you – somehow, no matter how much we prepare, we always seem to run out of time before everything gets done.
But, why not take a step back for a moment or two this Easter break? You might have the kids running around thanks to the two-week holidays – but there should be plenty of opportunities for you to take some Easter time for just you.
SWISH premade cocktails and premium mocktails are ideal for complementing the Easter festivities with. Whether you’re entertaining friends or are enjoying a quiet night or two in with your partner, why not kick back with a few premade luxury drinks based on well-loved recipes?
Here’s how to make your Easter weekend absolutely perfect, and where SWISH drinks fit into the equation.
Easter morning calls for a Breakfast Fizz
Second only to Christmas for many of us, Easter morning is often the most chaotic, joy-filled, and tiring holiday morning! Whether you’re preparing for guests to arrive or are fixing up an Easter Sunday roast, who could blame you for wanting to try something a little cheeky?
It’s a holiday, after all – so, provided you haven’t got too many responsibilities on your Easter list, you could treat yourself to a classic SWISH Breakfast Fizz, available as a premade cocktail from our online store.
Alternatively, maybe it's too early for an alcoholic cocktail – in which case, you might consider trying SWISH's 0% alcohol Breakfast Fizz mocktail instead – especially if you're unable to drink full alcohol or have other responsibilities on the big day.
This classic British cocktail boasts a tangy orange taste, packed with pink grapefruit juice – carrying smooth notes of marmalade on toast (hence “breakfast”). It’s such a unique, refreshing drink that can help carry you through the chaos of Easter morning!
And, once the clock strikes 12, you might fancy switching to our alcoholic Breakfast Fizz for the same incredible taste with a little extra kick!
Regardless, if you’ve ever fancied a quick cocktail or two when you finally get a break to enjoy them – SWISH premixed cocktails in a can make it easy for you to enjoy spectacular drinks without the fuss.
Canned class
Canned cocktails can be classy. Trust me on this! SWISH leans into the luxury of convenience – but, as you can see from our canned range, our cocktails and mocktails are just as creatively designed on the outside as they are on the inside.
There is something particularly luxurious about being able to pour your favourite drink – whether that’s a mojito or a margarita – without having to wrestle with ingredients or worry about measuring out the alcohol.
This Easter break, think about some of your favourite drinks that you'd typically like to enjoy while celebrating with friends and family. Are there any that need a particular amount of effort? What about expense?
If you can’t make it abroad for Easter break, you can easily create your own luxury break at home. It’s starting to get warmer, meaning depending on where you are, you could chill a selection of SWISH drinks from a cocktail hamper and enjoy a tipple or two on the patio.
You make your own luxury, and “class” is a relative term. For me, it’s all about enjoying life – and if you thrive on convenience, then we’re on your side.
You’re the host; make the most!
When it comes to Easter celebrations, the host is usually the one left out of the festivities.
After all, you spend so much time checking on the food, answering requests, cleaning up inconvenient messes, and ensuring everyone has what they need.
Yet, no one seems to think about what you need. That’s family gatherings for you!
So, this year, plan ahead for yourself. Just because you’re the host doesn’t mean you don’t get to spend a cheeky few minutes indulging in a few simple (but effective) pleasures!
With a SWISH cocktail, you don’t have to put much time aside for yourself. In fact, you can get straight to the good part – enjoying some delicious cocktail recipes you’d otherwise need to spend ample time preparing.
So, when time is tight for you to indulge yourself well and truly this Easter, take heart in the fact that you can stock your cooler with delicious premixed cocktails and mocktails for that little bit of heaven, whenever you have time for it.
But, as host, don’t go stealing away all the delicious drinks for yourself. SWISH cocktail hampers and cocktail gift boxes help you replenish the pantry or refrigerator ready for when guests arrive during the Easter break.
That way, you can pretend to be a mixologist and serve memorable drinks from your very own home bar – even if it looks more like a kitchen!
Make Easter memorable
For some people, Easter isn’t the most memorable of holidays. For many, it’s a very spiritual affair, while others love the vibrant ranges of chocolate eggs parading across the supermarket shelves. Honestly, can you blame them?
Regardless, it’s a great time to just take a few hours out of the hectic, fast-paced hassle of everyday life. If you just fancy a tasty cocktail or two with friends but don’t have much time this Easter, you could at least spend an hour or two in their company with a chilled can of SWISH – at least, you don’t have to worry about making up the mixes yourself!
