Client Spotlight: 55th Avenue Cocktails — Award-Winning RTD Cocktails You Need to Try
At The Palm Social, we get to work with a lot of incredible brands — but every once in a while, a new client comes along that genuinely excites us from the very first conversation. 55th Avenue Cocktails is exactly that kind of brand, and we are thrilled to officially welcome them to The Palm Social family. If you have not heard of them yet, consider this your introduction to the premium ready-to-drink cocktail brand that is winning awards, showing up on shelves at your favorite retailers, and about to be everywhere you look.
The Brand Behind the Bottle
55th Avenue Cocktails was built on a simple, elegant philosophy: Chill. Shake. Pour. These are premium ready-to-drink cocktails crafted with real cream, premium natural ingredients, and zero added sugar. At 12.5% ABV, they deliver an experience that stands up to anything you would order at a proper cocktail bar — but in a sleek 4-pack of 250ml slim cans you can take anywhere.
What truly sets 55th Avenue Cocktails apart is the commitment to quality. These are not the malt-based imposters cluttering the RTD shelf. They are real cocktails, made the right way, and the spirits industry has taken notice.
Award-Winning From Day One
In a crowded RTD market, 55th Avenue Cocktails has already earned serious recognition at major spirits competitions. Here is what the current lineup has achieved:
Espresso Martini Cream — 2024 Gold Medal Winner. Rich espresso meets velvety cream in what may be the most satisfying ready-to-drink cocktail on the market.
Mexican Style Chocolate Martini — 2024 Gold Medal Winner. Bold chocolate, a whisper of spice, and smooth flavors that make every sip an adventure.
Espresso Martini Black — 2025 Bronze Medal Winner. A darker, more intense espresso experience built for serious coffee and cocktail lovers alike.
Irish Cream Martini — 2025 Silver Medal Winner. Smooth Irish whiskey, luscious chocolate, and real cream — a cocktail worth savoring slowly.
Two Gold Medals in the same competition year tells you everything you need to know about how seriously this brand takes quality.
