Toast Your Inner Trailblazer with Aries Season Cocktails

In partnership with KINKY Beverages®

After the calm and dreamy vibes of Pisces season, Aries is here to shake things up. After an action-packed day, unwind with Aries Season Cocktails from Kinky Beverages

Hope you got your R&R in because Aries season is here! This mega boss pulls up in a bright crimson race car and makes sure we’re all ready for a few weeks of high-octane intensity and diva moments. (Lady Gaga and Mariah Carey are both Aries, if that helps you visualize the kind of power we’re working with.) Because Aries is the first sign of the zodiac, falling from March 20 to April 20, they crank the volume up way past 11 and get the party started with their charismatic, unstoppable personalities. 

“Me first! Me first!” is the rallying cry of Aries; this powerful Ram commands attention — and if you know what’s good for you, you’ll follow the leader, because Aries can be moody and difficult when they don’t get their way. But Aries energy should be inspiring and invigorating, encouraging all of us to be our brightest selves, stand our ground, and never take “no” for an answer.

This energy should also inspire us to pour up a fiery, bold cocktail from Kinky Beverages and enjoy a fabulous evening of fun, flirtation, and a little friendly competition. (Risks are great in the bedroom or the boardroom, but even the most adventurous Aries would advise you to sip responsibly.)

Not everyone can be an Aries, and that’s probably a good thing — the world might stop turning if we all had Aries in our charts. This season, give yourself permission to ask for what you want, make that crazy dream a reality, and take a big leap into what’s next for you.

Are you feeling like a RED HOT RAM or a RISK-TAKING RAM?

Cocktail # 1 KINKY PASSION FLOWER MARTINI

For the Red Hot Ram

Drink this when: competing at game night, finishing a marathon, flirting with a stranger across the bar

Cocktail #2 KINKY RED GINGER

For the Risk-Taking Ram

Drink this when: planning world domination, jumping out of a plane (well, afterwards), asking for a raise

YOU KNOW YOU ARE A RED HOT RAM IF YOU:

  • Were often described as a “spirited” child
  • Know that parties don’t start ‘til you walk in
  • Set the trends — never follow them
  • Write the best Tinder bios


YOU KNOW YOU ARE A RISK-TAKING RAM IF YOU:

  • Think, “the more challenging, the better”
  • Have a tattoo you regret
  • Are the go-to group project leader
