Built around what’s changing
Current trends, emerging ingredients and formats—without chasing gimmicks.
Plan 1 · Seasonal
A fresh cocktail menu, built for the season before the season starts.
Every quarter, Inebrious develops a new collection of cocktails around current drink trends, seasonal flavors and the way guests actually want to drink at that time of year. Your menu arrives early enough to order ingredients, test recipes, train staff and be ready when the season changes.
10 drinks every quarter: 7 cocktails and 3 zero-proof. Recipes, batching, costing and print design included.
How each menu is built
More than a quarterly recipe drop
The work starts well before the menu reaches your bar. Each seasonal release is developed as a complete restaurant beverage program, not just a collection of drinks.
Designed for the season
Drinks fit the weather, occasions and drinking habits of the quarter.
Built for restaurant service
Practical ingredients, efficient builds and batching where it helps service.
Delivered before you need it
Time to source, test, price and train before the season begins.
Costing & pricing
See the economics before a drink reaches the menu
Update your own ingredient costs and selling price to see the economics of each drink before it hits the menu.

Seasonal plan questions
What operators usually want to know
What does each quarterly seasonal menu include?
Each release includes 10 drinks—seven cocktails and three zero-proof drinks—with complete recipes, batching and service instructions, glassware, garnishes, starting ingredient costs and a print-ready menu.
Can I use my restaurant’s actual ingredient costs?
Yes. You can update pack size, purchase unit and cost per pack for the included ingredients. The workspace then recalculates each drink’s cost, pour cost and margin using your numbers.
When is a new seasonal menu delivered?
Each menu is delivered before the new season so the restaurant has time to source ingredients, test recipes, set prices and train the staff before launch.
Do I keep access to earlier seasonal menus?
Menus granted during an active subscription remain in your subscriber library. A new subscription begins with the current release; seasons published before the subscription started are not backfilled.
Can I add my own recipes to the Seasonal plan?
Seasonal is intentionally limited to the included quarterly menus and their costing fields. Menu Builder Pro includes every Seasonal release and also lets you create and edit your own ingredients, recipes and menus.
