Give the gift of first-class cocktails this Christmas

Cocktails By Mail are the perfect Christmas gift, 'Secret Santa' inspiration, stocking filler, or  'just-because-what-a-f-ing-year-and-I-miss-you' present. Let your not-so-nearest and dearest know you are thinking of them this Christmas with a perfectly crafted cocktail - choose from a Fireside Punch, a Secret Santa Cocktail or White Winter Negroni (and many more) - delivered straight to their door. Just chill, pour and enjoy.

• • Lewisham-based female founder Steph DiCamillo, found herself out of work at the start of the pandemic; a home side hustle turned into a business and in November 2020, Cocktails by Mail was launched after months of tough kitchen tasting research 
  • Recognising the need for quality cocktails at home, and with years of experience across hospitality and the drinks industry and a passion for environmentally friendly products , Steph set about developing first class eco-pouch cocktails that could be mailed 
  • Cocktails By Mail are the first cocktail delivery company in the UK to use biodegradable pouches alongside 100% recyclable outer cardboard packaging - so while the pouches themselves may not be the flashiest, they are plant based and contain no palm oil. They compost in weeks rather than years - and the labels are printed without coatings or foilings to ensure they can also be recycled
  • No bullsh*t. No additives. ALL ingredients are named in every cocktail to give full transparency and no surprises and where possible UK based ingredients are used (with the exception of spirits from a specific geographical region e.g. Tequila / Cognac)
  • All products are sourced or handcrafted with the aim of reducing food waste - banana skins are turned into a syrup (banana oleo) and lime cordial is handcrafted using the whole lime (you won't taste a drop of citric acid in any of these cocktails!) 
  • Give the gift of a cocktail! Handwritten messages are included on all orders, ensuring senders can provide a personal touch to gifts with each cocktail sent by mail!

Founder Steph DiCamillo commented on the launch:
“Every single drink we make is crafted with ingredients used in the world's best cocktail bars. We're proud of our liquid and only make cocktails we would drink ourselves. At the end of the day I want the drinks to be 'crushable' and accessible like your favourite taco joint, or that local Italian who makes the pasta dish you love and go back to for the reasonable pricing that doesn't take the p*ss.”

About Steph DiCamillo
Before starting Cocktails by Mail, Steph worked for Atom Brands as the Global Advocacy Manager, although she was best known as the Boutiquey Gin Ambassador and Icons of Gin, Ambassador of the Year 2019. Prior to this she was shaking Margarita's at the East London cocktail bar Bad Sports and pulling pints in a west London pub. She's probably the only American you'll meet who can make a great cocktail and change a cask ale barrel.

Before moving to Old Blighty she cut her teeth in the notoriously high paced New York City bar scene working at American Whiskey, a Midtown Manhattan whiskey and cocktail bar. Steph has a Bachelors in Hotel & Restaurant Management from Mercyhurst University in the US. Besides a year in law school she's always worked in hospitality and drinks and has never looked back!
