The last bastion of the heavenly cocktail might be in the air or 30 000 feet (10 000 metres) up!

Whilst alcoholic in-flight beverages have been available for over 60 years, the drinks on offer are more mixed rather than a cocktail in the traditional sense!

Predominately attributable to air pressure, this presents challenges that mixologists need to take into account when curating in-flight menus.

The business travellers are seeking better experiences and cocktails might just make a difference when selecting one carrier over another. 

So hands up for a martini or even a delicious Negroni, served by a capable bartender on board your flight! Sounds pretty good!
