We were stoked and a bit surprised this week to find out that What Cocktail? was App of the Day on two popular sites, Gizmodo and TUAW (The Unofficial Apple Weblog). Thanks a lot to both of them for featuring our app – it’s fair to say that their attention has given the app a lot of exposure!

As it happened, we had also just put the app on sale to celebrate Kim’s birthday and National Margarita Day.

Here’s the effect on the rankings…

What Cocktail? for iPhone

Kim’s barman alter-ego and all-round cocktail enthusiasm have finally been realised and released as an iPhone app – What Cocktail?. After years of personal research supplying fun and inflicting damage upon family & friends it didn’t take a lot of convincing for us to help build the little dream app either! To be honest, a bit of that damage was inflicted on us during the project as well, as every cocktail had to be sampled. Closely. Very closely. After all, everything was in HD :)

Here’s some official description: What Cocktail? does all the hard work for you and serves up a perfect recommendation. No more 20 questions with the bar staff. No more indecision. And you can impress your friends. It’s like having an expert at hand. Mouth-watering pictures and smart descriptions let you know what you are in for. Sometimes it’s nice not having to choose.

Some obligatory pre-release testing was performed around town and we can happily report a complete success. Actually, I think the cocktail kaleidoscopes did their job a little too well… but perhaps that’s best left to another more anonymous post.

For more info take a look at the What Cocktail? site http://whatcocktail.com or have a lurk on Twitter @whatcocktails or uber poke it on the Facebook or go crazy and jump right to the iTunes App Store.

We’re working on some extra features that will be out soon and should be a bit of fun. If you’ve got the app already then feel free to send us your feedback – email info@whatcocktail.com.

Please drink responsibly.

Honest.
