If you are creating content in the bar or cocktail lifestyle niche, think about creating content around travel bars.
What are they? They’re a stylish, portable way to bring the bar with you. They’re generally leather, with room for a cocktail shaker and a few bar tools, plus a couple of beverage bottles and cocktail glasses. Great for picnics, train trips, glamping and luxury getaways.

Before we get started, pop over to Vinepair and read this history of travel bars.
Take a look at the Picnic Time storefront on Amazon (affiliate link):

This “Madison Acacia tabletop bar tool set” is technically portable, but would be very heavy. It doesn’t include room for bottles, which you would pack separately. It’s elegant and masculine, and includes nineteen bar tools.
For a more casual set (perhaps for day trippers or casual backpackers?) here’s the Picnic Time portable bar backpack, with sixteen bar tools and accessories.
The Hamilton bartender kit is styled with classic understated elegance. It’s a very professional looking portable bar case, with sixteen cocktail bar accessories and tools. To me, it just quietly whispers “George Clooney.”
The Manhattan case is smaller and comes with fewer tools, but has the same vintage look and clean lines.
I do not currently, as of this writing in 2024, see any Amazon influencer videos on these products. (That could mean the carousel is not currently populated, or that no one has made videos yet).
Here’s a less expensive option, a Bartender Bag that rolls up and has a handle for easy carrying. It has everything you need to make a cocktail, including a Hawthorne strainer, ice pick, ice tongs, double jigger, squeezer, mixing spoon, shaker and more.
My eye is rather drawn to this Bartender Bag because it looks like a doctor’s satchel. Serving up much needed medication!
Finally, for farmhouse style enthusiasts, I wanted to show you this barn door bartender cabinet. It’s a bit clunky to be portable, but can be hung on a wall or placed on a counter somewhere you want rustic decor.
Perhaps you’ll feature some travel bar content this summer and shoulder season, if you have a travel blog, cocktail niche or lifestyle guide social media profile.
You might also feature mixers, bitters, non-alcoholic cocktail mixers, cocktail glasses and ice buckets in your content as well.
Happy creating and sipping,
