Troye Sivan has partnered with Smirnoff to create four cocktails inspired by his single “Party,” including drinks named Party at My House and Party in the Day. In an interview with Esquire, Sivan discussed the collaboration, his music videos, his forthcoming album She’s the Best and how he approaches songwriting.
Troye Sivan and Smirnoff have created four cocktails inspired by Sivan’s single “Party,” extending the singer’s music promotion into a collaboration with the vodka brand. Sivan, who describes his Smirnoff role as “chief vibes officer,” taste-tested the drinks, which the company says are designed for different kinds of occasions.
The drinks include Party at My House, described as a spicy take on a mule, and Party in the Day, a tropical, slushy cocktail. Sivan told Esquire that mixologists developed the recipes and that he tried each one. He named Party at the Club as his favorite, describing it as a mix of Smirnoff 21, elderflower and orange-blossom water. Smirnoff’s Instagram page has instructions for all four cocktails, according to the report.
Sivan said the group wanted to make several drinks because “Party” refers to different places where he enjoys a party. He singled out the lyric “Party at the restaurant” as a favorite, explaining that he likes the idea of a group dinner becoming lively as music plays. The cocktail range, he said, was meant to match different settings and moods.
The brand collaboration comes alongside Sivan’s music work. The Esquire report says his album She’s the Best is scheduled for release on October 9, though it does not give a year. Sivan also collaborated on the soundtrack for Ryan Murphy’s television adaptation of The Shards, based on Bret Easton Ellis’s novel, according to the article. The report discusses videos for “Party” and “She’s the Best,” including Nicole Kidman’s appearance in the latter.
A Brand Tie-In Around “Party”
The collaboration gives listeners a way to engage with “Party” beyond streaming the song or watching its video: Smirnoff is linking the track to four recipes that can be made at home. For the brand, Sivan’s role and the cocktail names connect the product to his music and the different settings described in the single.
The development also shows how Sivan is presenting his work across several formats at once. His interview covers a branded drinks project, a new single, music videos and an upcoming album. The cocktails are promotional recipes; the source does not report sales figures, audience response or any independent assessment of their reach.
For readers interested in the drinks themselves, Sivan provided personal preferences rather than general health guidance. He said he often orders a vodka soda with lime at a bar, while a dirty vodka martini is his preferred cocktail, especially at dinner. Those comments describe his own choices and do not establish that the cocktails are suitable for every occasion or person.
“Party” is the creative starting point for the collaboration. Sivan told Esquire that the song moves among party settings, including a park, under a bridge, a club and a restaurant. He said the lyric about a restaurant reflects his idea of a dinner with friends turning into a party. The recipes translate that range of settings into drink names, while mixologists handled their development.
Sivan also described the song’s video as an experiment with repetition and structure. He said he was interested in how repeated elements that might seem repetitive elsewhere can make sense on a dance floor, and in repetition as a form of hypnosis. The song includes a lyric that loops back, which he said represented a party that keeps going.
In the video, director Gordon von Steiner and Sivan imagined how people might have partied in the past, taking the concept back through what Sivan called a highly debaucherous party. He described letting loose as innate to people. These are Sivan’s explanations of the creative choices; the report does not present them as a broader historical account of party culture.
The article places the project in a busy period for the singer. Along with the album announcement and the soundtrack work, Sivan discussed a video for “She’s the Best,” which features Nicole Kidman. He said he knew Kidman from the film Boy Erased, stayed loosely in touch with her, and asked her to appear because he felt she represented the kind of person described in the song. Kidman agreed to take part, according to Sivan’s account.
““I feel a bit like a personality hire, but I think I bring a nice energy to the role.””

Release Details Still Unspecified
The Esquire report does not specify the year for the stated October 9 release date of She’s the Best, so the timing cannot be placed more precisely from the material provided. It also does not give a release date for the cocktail recipes, list all four drink names, or say whether the drinks will be available at venues as well as through the online recipes.
No sales, audience figures or other measures of the partnership’s reach are included. The article reports Sivan’s account of his role and preferences, along with Smirnoff’s association with the recipes; it does not independently evaluate the drinks or the commercial results. The report also does not provide further details about Sivan’s soundtrack contribution to The Shards.
Recipes and Album Ahead
Readers can find instructions for the four cocktails on Smirnoff’s Instagram page, according to the Esquire report. The source does not state how long the recipes will remain available or describe any further events tied to the collaboration.
The next stated milestone for Sivan’s music is the planned release of She’s the Best on October 9. Because the report does not specify a year, the date’s current status is unclear. Further information about the album, its release schedule and Sivan’s work on The Shards was not included in the source material.
