The Malibu Drinks Squad
The Malibu Drinks Squad is made up of a team of industry experts, seasoned mixologists, and professional bartenders with years of experience in the bar and cocktail world. Our relentless passion for creating and sharing drinks combined with our extensive knowledge means our recipes and techniques are tried and tested, providing you with the best expertise and advice in drink-making.
The Bar
This is where the drink magic happens. Our own dedicated pro-level bar and kitchen allows us to update and refine our current recipes, create new drinks and cocktails, and explore new techniques to share tips and tricks with you. We’ve spent countless hours here fine-tuning and fidgeting over precise measurements, exact temperatures and correct ingredients. Making sure that we get each cocktail perfect. In fact, we like to think of it more like a lab than a bar.

Robin Abrahamsson
Bar Manager & Cocktail Creative
Robin Abrahamsson is one of Sweden’s top bar managers and creative bartenders with over 15 years in the cocktail world. His dedication for creating top-quality drinks lists is a testament to his passion for sharing new recipes and tastes with his customers and readers alike.
Approach
“My approach to making drinks is a double-edged sword; by working sustainably and incredibly nerdy, I aim to remove any hurdles for the guest by bringing down industry terms to the guest’s level. My aim is to add a very playful touch to my presentations and menus by creating a theme that is fun, engaging and relatable.”
Besides working immensely at the bars he has managed since 2010, both in Sweden and in Paris, Robin has also spent years creating global partnerships and initiatives within the bar industry. These have included anything from hosting the Guide de Michelin, 50 Best Bars & Restaurants, Cannes Film Festival, and Jardin de Mexico to mention a few highlights, to co-creating a bespoke bar design company called Raise The Bar. He was also part of a development called Cocktail Terroir, using ingredients only sourced from the Umeå region in Sweden, which has followed Robin in his journey as a bartender over the years.
Robin is part of the Malibu drinks strategy team, where he shares his knowledge in many areas. These include developing new drinks and products, hosting educational workshops and creating the drinks for many of the social media campaigns.

What’s your palette – sweet or sour? I lean more on the sour side, since these drinks generally take longer to sip and enjoy.

Stefan Gregory
Copywriter & Cocktail Researcher
Stefan is a seasoned copywriter and cocktail enthusiast with a passion for writing, researching and sharing drink recipes and tips that democratize and simplify home-cocktail making.
Approach
“Every drink has a story. And many were created to serve a function. Whether it was simply masking the taste of some traditional spirits with sugar in the ‘30s or adding the flamboyance of colorful fruit during the cocktail movement in the ‘80s. To me, digging and finding those stories and sharing them with others, while researching new ways to modernise old, lost recipes, is just as important as their taste.”
Stefan has spent the last decade writing about cocktails for brands in Pernod Ricard’s portfolio, including Malibu, Kahlúa and Absolut Vodka, as well as the Bartenders’ Choice Awards. Over the years, he has researched, written about and published hundreds of cocktail recipes, drink histories and behind-the-scenes glimpses of the bar industry and liqueur making processes. This experience has given him detailed insights and intimate knowledge about the craft of cocktail creation, and his ability to convey that knowledge in an easy-to-understand way makes him an invaluable part of the team.
Your favourite Malibu Cocktail? Malibu Bay Breeze or Malibu Paloma.
Cocktails or mixed drinks? I love making cocktails at home for friends. A bit more effort goes a long way to impress guests.
Interesting drink story you’ve found? I love the stories that have humble beginnings but gain worldwide fame. For example the Piña Colada.
Favourite drink garnish? Dehydrated fruit slices are underrated, since you can also eat them on their own.
Best thing about writing cocktails recipes? The endless combinations never cease to amaze me. I don’t think the last cocktail will ever be created.
