Kitchens and dining areas are some of the busiest places in the home, and they deserve art that makes you feel joyful. Adding colour is a really effective way to brighten up the space without committing to a full renovation. Cocktail prints are a natural fit here as they’re full of personality, and choosing a favourite drink (or a few) to showcase on your walls is a brilliant way to call back memories.
Choosing Cocktail Prints for Your Space
Start with the cocktails you actually love. It might be the drink you always order on a night out, one that reminds you of a holiday, or the signature drink you make whenever friends come over. Choosing something that means something to you is much more personal than simply picking artwork to match the kitchen cupboards.
Next, think about the wall you have available. A single large print can work well on a smaller stretch of wall or above a drinks cabinet, while a pair or set of three can fill the space above a dining table or create a feature on a larger wall.
If you have a dedicated home bar or drinks area, artwork can help make it feel like its own little space within the room. Cocktail prints are a natural choice for home bar art, especially when the drinks pictured are the ones you actually make and enjoy.
Practical Considerations for Kitchen Wall Art
Kitchens are busy spaces, so it’s also worth thinking practically about where your artwork will hang. Keep prints away from areas where they’re likely to be exposed directly to heat, grease or steam, particularly around the hob and kettle.
Our cocktail prints are all designed to work together, so there’s no need to worry too much about matching colours or styles. Pick the drinks you love and combine them in whatever way feels personal to you.
If you’re looking for somewhere to start, here are seven of our best-selling cocktail prints for inspiration.
1. Aperol Spritz Print
Consistently one of the world’s most popular cocktails, this colourful Italian aperitivo spritz is synonymous with sunshine, holidays and long afternoons spent with friends.
2. Margarita Print
The Margarita is one of those cocktails that never seems to go out of style. Fresh, summery and delicious, the salt-rimmed glass always brings a party vibe. The bright yellow and blue of our Margarita Print are perfect for adding a little sunshine to your walls.
3. Negroni Print
Strong, distinctive and delicious, the Negroni isn’t a drink for the faint-hearted. With its unmistakable deep red colour and classic old-fashioned glass, it looks as good as it tastes. Our Negroni Print is a bold choice for bar wall art on its own and also works brilliantly alongside other cocktail prints.
4. Spicy Margarita Print
A relative newcomer compared with some of the classics on this list, the Spicy Margarita has quickly become a favourite cocktail. A fiery twist on the classic Margarita, our bright red Spicy Margarita Print turns up the heat and adds a strong splash of colour to a kitchen or bar area.
5. Espresso Martini Print
The perfect print for late-night cocktail lovers, the Espresso Martini combines two of our favourite things: coffee and cocktails. Our Espresso Martini Print has a rich, elegant feel and is an easy choice for a kitchen, dining room or home bar.
6. Martini Print
One of the world’s most recognisable cocktails, the Martini will forever be a classic. After creating prints inspired by the Espresso Martini, Dirty Martini and Pornstar Martini, we eventually came back to the original with our Martini Print - a simple celebration of a true cocktail icon.
7. Manhattan Cocktail Print
New York vibes abound with the Manhattan, a cocktail with a history stretching back well over a century. Our Manhattan Cocktail Print pairs classic cocktail imagery with a nighttime NYC feel, making it a great choice if you prefer your cocktail art a little darker and moodier.
