Would you like a cocktail with a touch of a button? Keurig and Anheuser-Buschhave you covered.
Drinkworks – a joint venture between the two beverage companies – debuted its first product called the Drinkworks Home Bar earlier this week. Similar to theKeurig CoffeeMaker, the Drinkworks Home Bar uses pods to make cocktails, beerand mixers.
The machine costs $299, with each podcosting $3.99 individually or $15.99 for four. There are currently 24 drinks available – including Mojitos, Long Island Iced Teas and Moscow Mules – with“many more to come,” according to the company.
