Ultra-Lounge is a series of compilation CDs 1BachelorPadRoyale-PlayboysThemereleased by Capitol Records, predominantly featuring music genres such as exotica, space age pop, mambo, television theme songs, and lounge.

Each CD features detailed liner notes along with two related drink recipes, tips on how to serve drinks to guests, and often photographs of sculptures made out of bartender items and other objects.

The series started in 1996, but as of 2009 the newer releases have been made available only in digital format.
