Crafthouse Cocktails Now Available on United Airlines Flights
Crafthouse Cocktails’ bar-quality canned cocktails are now available on select United flights, including three new drinks created in collaboration with United - Espresso Martini, Mai Tai, and Moonlighter - alongside Pineapple Daiquiri. This marks the first time United offers canned cocktails on domestic flights.
Crafted by Charles Joly, James Beard Award-winning mixologist, Crafthouse Cocktails are made with the same premium spirits and high-quality ingredients Joly uses behind the bar.
“We're thrilled to partner with United to elevate the inflight experience by offering passengers the balance and flavors they'd expect from their favorite cocktail bar.” said Charles Joly, Co-Founder of Crafthouse Cocktails.
United customers on domestic flights 300 miles or more can now order Crafthouse Cocktails’ Espresso Martini and Moonlighter, and flights between the continental U.S. and Hawaii additionally offer Crafthouse Cocktails’ Mai Tai and Pineapple Daiquiri. The new drinks are complimentary for passengers in United Business® and United First and available for-purchase in United Economy® for $12.
“These cocktails are seriously good – flavorful and high-quality – and from a local Chicago company, which we’re really proud of,” said Aaron McMillan, United’s Managing Director of Hospitality Programs. “As we continue to evolve our onboard food and drink menus, companies like Crafthouse Cocktails are helping us deliver more on-trend options and variety to our customers.”
