A cocktail in a can? Sacrilege? Not necessarily. Baby Boomers are on-the-go movers and shakers. Taking the cooler full of beer up a notch, well, canned cocktails could be the solution. (Please bring a nice plastic cocktail-appropriate glass.) There’s no question of a portability advantage. See foodandwine.com for a review of various brands.
But do not imbibe at home. Please honor the code of cocktail makers worldwide and get out the shaker and the fresh ingredients when at the homefront.
For those of you whom exude class in a remote setting where cans might be appropriate but perhaps not quite right, consider the portable bar. With glasses, strainers, metal toothpicks, a shaker and storage for a couple bottles, these clever cases make proper cocktails away from home a reality.
Stay classy.
