How are kukki Cocktails manufactured?

My kukki Cocktails have thawed, what now?

If there is no ice left in your kukki Cocktail before opening, because it has completely thawed, you should not consume it.

Additionally, kukkis must not be refrozen once they are completely thawed, as the bottles could burst.

Are there non-alcoholic kukki Cocktails?

Unfortunately, the implementation of a non-alcoholic cocktail as a kukki is not as straightforward as with alcohol. Currently, there are still no non-alcoholic kukki Cocktails.

May I drink kukki Cocktail?

Due to the alcohol content, kukkis are naturally not suitable for pregnant women, children, and adolescents under 18 years of age. Of course, they are also not suitable for driving – don’t drink & drive! We have decided to make our kukkis available only to those aged 18 and over. This has been our conscious decision, as we believe that cocktails should only be consumed at the age of 18, whether with wine or with spirits.

What is the kukki Toaster?

For the special needs in gastronomy, we have developed the kukki Toaster that prepares a frozen kukki in 30 seconds.

Simply place it in, wait briefly, shake, and serve. Learn more about the installation and setup in our Installation Video.

Can I test the kukki Toaster ?

No, because as a business owner, you have the opportunity to purchase our Starter Bundle with the kukki Toaster at a discounted price.

It is best to speak to your specialist advisor or simply register here and order in our commercial shop.

Why are kukki Cocktails vegan?

Many juices and wines are not vegan, as animal products are used as technical aids in their production.

For clarifying juice, wine, and similar beverages, animal gelatin is often used to filter the drink. 

Since no gelatin can be detected in the final product, these do not need to be labeled. In our product, the clarification process with gelatin is omitted, which is why we also stand for vegan drinks, completely free of animal aids.

Can I rent the kukki Toaster ?

You can rent our kukki Toaster for your event from one of our partners. Find a provider now and kukki Toaster rent.

Why don't kukki Cocktail bottles burst?

Our cylindrical ice cubes are produced and frozen using a patented process under high pressure. This allows the ice cubes to be placed in the bottles and then into the freezer. This method enables our kukki Cocktails to be deep-frozen without the bottles bursting.

What length should drinking straws have?

We recommend a length of at least 23 cm so that the straw does not sink into the bottle.

Our original kukki Cocktail glass straws from HALM (Made in Germany), with a length of 27 cm, fit visually and haptically wonderfully with our glass bottles.

Our kukki Cocktail organic straws (Made in Germany), for commercial use, have a length of 25 cm and can also be used for other cold as well as hot beverages.

Why is there no cane sugar in my kukki Caipi ?

Each kukki Caipi is handcrafted with cane sugar. You can no longer see the sugar crystals as well because the crystals lose their brown color due to the acidity of the juices.

Preparation

How does the preparation in a water bath work?

Thaw for 3-4 minutes in a warm water bath.

Your kukki is ready when the ice is solid and the alcohol is liquid.

Shake the bottle upside down and then open.

Pierce the ice with a straw. Cheers!

How do I prepare many cocktails in a short time?

Are kukki Cocktails still good if they are thawed at the neck?

To maintain this, please place your order directly into the freezer after delivery - not in the refrigerator. The dry ice sublimates during transport, which is completely normal.If there are any remnants upon delivery, handle them with gloves for safety and allow them to evaporate outdoors - please refer to the guidelines regarding dry ice. Once the dry ice has completely evaporated, you can dispose of the empty bags.
