We made thousands of cocktails the hard way. Then we bottled the good part.

Craft Cartel started behind the bar, not in a boardroom.

For more than a decade, we’ve been creating cocktails for weddings, private parties, luxury events, and some of the biggest brands in the world. Along the way, we learned something pretty simple: a great cocktail is only as good as what you put into it.

So when we decided to make cocktail mixers, we weren't interested in creating another bottle of overly sweet, artificially flavored stuff that gets buried under tequila and a squeeze of lime.

We wanted to bottle the same flavors we’d actually be proud to serve behind our own bars.

That means real fruit and juices, quality ingredients, thoughtfully layered flavors, and recipes developed with a bartender’s palate. No artificial colors. No unnecessary shortcuts. Just ingredients chosen because they make the drink taste better.

And we don't believe interesting cocktails need to be complicated. Our flavors combine ingredients like blueberry and ginger, cucumber and tarragon, or passion fruit, cayenne and basil—so the creativity is already in the bottle. You just get to take the credit.
