Delicious cocktails, makes such a lovely gift. I bought the Singapore sling for my husband’s birthday - easy to make and insanely tasty. Thank you! We recommend!

Information provided by various external sources

We’ve always enjoyed making cocktails at home however, we appreciate that it costs a lot of money to build up an impressive collection of spirits and liqueurs in order to make sure you’re not making the same cocktails over and over again. This is where Muddlebox comes in. Rather than spend a fortune on alcohol which you might use in a cocktail and then never use again, we provide the right amount of ingredients to enable you to try as many different cocktails as you wish before deciding whether you want to make that cocktail again by purchasing the larger, more expensive bottles of alcohol. Our cocktail tasting kits come in 4 sizes depending on how many people you’re making that cocktail for and our kits start from just £9 (all kits include standard postage free of charge). We provide all the ingredients you need. All you’ll need are basic cocktail making accessories, glasses, ice and optional garnishes but don’t worry, each cocktail kit description will outline what you’ll need so you can check whether you can make the cocktail before you order.

Nice little treat

Came well packaged, with high quality ingredients. Loved the little cocktail card so I can make it again in future. Due (I assume) to the current situation I had no response to two emails regarding missing shipping information, which was a bit disappointing. So can only give 4 out of 5 stars.

Edit: in response to muddlebox’s reply - replies DIDN’T go to my junk mail and I acknowledged in my previous review that the current situation might cause delays, but does not excuse no response at all.

Hi Rachel,

Thank you for your review and I'm pleased you liked your cocktail box.

In regards to not getting any responses to your queries, the current situation means there's a delay in responding but we responded to both your emails at 17:25 on 14th April and 16:48 on 16th April. Presumably both responses have gone to your junk folder, as well as the shipping confirmation email.

Kind Regards

Gareth

Hi Rachel,

Following your edited review and the subsequent removal of one of the stars as a result of my response above, I would like to apologise if I have upset you or caused any offence. That was not my intention.

Your original review gave us 4 out of 5 stars which is a very good review and as much as I'd love to respond to every review I receive, I wanted to leave a comment for you as I didn't like the thought that you were disappointed as you didn't get a response. As you have already acknowledged, you expect delays in response times due to the current situation so I could have not responded at all to your review or responded with an apology explaining that my response was delayed. Instead I chose to respond with the facts, that I responded twice on the dates and times given above. I really don't want you to have the impression that you were ignored. Therefore I stand by previous response that I responded to both your queries. Earlier this afternoon I forwarded both responses to you again however, there seems to be some sort of issue with you receiving our emails so you may not have received them. I'd be more than happy to provide them if you want to provide an alternative email address.

Please be aware that I am not doubting your claim that you didn't receive my responses. Our emails are working fine as customers are responding to us but a small minority of customers have been reporting that they're finding our emails in their junk folders, hence the reason I suggested above that's where they might be. Unfortunately I am not able to provide a reason as to why you didn't receive them. They were definitely sent. They were definitely not returned as "undeliverable". I have checked the email address used and it's the same one that was provided. This email address definitely works as I can see that you've opened the automated emails that were sent from our system, including the email inviting you to leave this Trustpilot review. I just have absolutely no idea why the emails I sent manually didn't reach you.

You're right, the current situation does not excuse no response at all. However, a response that was not received is completely different, especially as I had no way of knowing that you weren't receiving those responses.

Kind Regards

Gareth

Tasty and good quality

We really enjoyed our first Muddlebox, the ingredients were good named brands and the recipe was tasty. Our only criticism is it would be great to be able to choose the difficulty level yourself. We have some experience making cocktails and found it very basic, only taking a couple of minutes rather than being a fun home activity. Joseph Carvell :-)

Would recommend

Got my box relatively quick considering the current situation. Nicely packaged and good quality ingredients with clear instructions for a Safari Juice. Excited for my next box!

Cocktails!

Came quickly, was nicely packaged and was easy to make. This was my first box and I thought the idea was great but the cocktail was sickly sweet and not to my taste at all. Hoping the next one is different. I was impressed with the box and will continue to subscribe.

Great cocktails and at a very good price. It comes well packaged and everything you need in the box. No need to buy any extra drinks. Looking forward to my next box.

Reply from Muddlebox

Hi Tom,

We're sorry to hear you didn't like the cocktails. The two already sent were more or less based on the preferences you provided when you joined. Both cocktails were long and fruity as requested and used the base spirits which you chose. However, the Singapore Sling is a little sour despite telling us you'd prefer sweeter cocktails but unfortunately it's not always possible to match a customer's preferences exactly. Even if we did match your preferences 100% there is of course no guarantee you'll like the cocktail.

We're in receipt of your new preferences provided today. Fingers crossed you'll like the next one.

Regards

Gareth

Amazing boxes!

I love the idea of subscription cocktail boxes, and everything included inside the box is well worth the money, the time to make and gives off such satisfaction after the cocktails made!

People who like cocktails

People who like cocktails, knows how difficult sometimes is finding the ingredients, also they come in big quantities, meaning if you want to try something new, you need to buy all the ingredients. If you don’t like the cocktail....you’re screwed. Muddlebox is perfect. Every week you have a new cocktail. Easy to prepare. With the exact amount of ingredients. Is a dream come true. Allows you to try new cocktails every week without spending lots of money. And if you like it....you have the ingredients and the measurements. It heaven!!!!!
