There’s something about December that turns every catch-up into an excuse for a drink. Friends drop by unannounced, family members from interstate crash at yours, and suddenly you’re playing host with whatever’s in the fridge and a half-wilting lime.
This year, you can do better than that. Elix-Elite Cocktail Club – the at-home cocktail subscription service that’s been a hit since it launched earlier this year – has teamed up with iconic SA liqueur producer Ambra to deliver the ultimate summer cocktail kit, ready for you to shake top-tier drinks right in your own living room.
Ambra, Australia’s first commercial limoncello producer, is largely responsible for taking the zesty lemon liqueur out of nonna’s second fridge and into the mainstream. Their limoncello production has tripled in the past year, loved by Aussies so much that it’s been dubbed the “drink of summer.”
Elix-Elite, meanwhile, is essentially the HelloFresh of cocktail making, delivering premium, 100% Australian-made spirits, pro-level tools and guided video masterclasses to your door monthly.
The hero of the collaboration kit is Ambra’s brand-new Pink Limoncello, the flirtier, rosier mixed-berry twist on the iconic liqueur. It arrives alongside Ambra Citrus Gin, Ambra Blood Orange Aperitif, and Ashbolt Farm Elderflower Concentrate from Tasmania. Everything is 100% Australian-made, hand-picked, and pre-measured for ease. Add the guided video masterclass and recipe card, and you’ll be mixing like a pro before the ice melts.
Elix-Elite is all about championing Australian spirits, so the Ambra collab makes perfect sense.
“Partnering with Ambra for our December kit feels like a celebration of South Australian craft,” says David Biviano, Elix-Elite Co-Founder. “Their new Pink Limoncello is fun, vibrant and perfect for summer — exactly the kind of spirit we love building our kits around.”
For David and co-founder Carlo King, Elix-Elite was created for two reasons. First, to break down the barrier and help people make world-class cocktails at home.
“We want people to feel confident making great cocktails at home. With this kit, we’ve paired beautiful local spirits with simple, guided steps so anyone can shake something amazing,” David says.
But it’s equally about introducing people to craft distilleries. In a market crowded by global giants, it can be hard for small Australian distilleries to get the attention they deserve. Elix-Elite not only helps people try the creative drops made in our own backyard, it puts the bottles directly into our hands.
Each kit comes with everything you need for a round (or three), plus a free premium cocktail glass and smoking set valued at $100 when you use code GLAM, an exclusive offer for Glam Adelaide readers. Every new subscriber also receives a $120 Welcome Pack of professional bar tools with their first box, so you’ll be fully equipped to kick-start your mixologist journey.
Perfect for gifting, entertaining, sipping through the warm nights ahead, or exploring a new hobby over the break, this major collaboration is a toast to South Australia’s growing craft spirits scene – and to the comfort of staying home but drinking like you’re at a specialty cocktail bar.
The exclusive Ambra collaboration kit will run until December 14.
