Mixed-Up Cocktail Co., the makers of canned cocktails under the parent company Little Toad Creek Distillery, announced the company’s notable 2022 market growth. Among many of the highlights that round out the fiscal year-end include introducing two new flavors—Lemon Raspberry Mojito and Apple Bourbon Mule—into the market for a total of eight flavors, expanding the team to 80 employees, and entering the Colorado, California and Texas markets for consumer reach. The company has also won multiple awards this year, including double gold, at esteemed spirits tasting competitions.
“Mixed-Up Cocktail Co. has proven a strong choice among consumers, especially against RTDs from household-name companies,” says Teresa Dahl-Bredine, co-founder of Mixed-Up Cocktail Co. alongside husband David Crosley. “Our cocktails are made with all-natural ingredients, 10% ABV, and with no chemicals or preservatives—qualities that modern customers demand. They can immediately taste the difference and we’re receiving re-orders when competitors are not. I am very excited to see what we’ll accomplish in this upcoming year.”
In 2022, Mixed-Up Cocktails Co. met its goals of introducing a variety of flavor profiles beyond its original Classic Mule, including:
- Mules: Mojito Mule, Grapefruit & Gin Mule, Watermelon Jalapeno Mule, and the latest seasonal Apple Bourbon Mule
- Ritas: Classical Margarita and Mango Margarita from house-made blue agave spirits
- Mojitos: Lemon Raspberry
To support growth for 2023, Mixed-Up Cocktail invested heavily in experienced employees, such as:
- Sales Manager
- Ambassadors
- Director of Marketing
