The brand’s pioneering approach for putting quality, taste and choice back into the mixer aisle now sees their expansion beyond carbonated offerings with the release of Fever-Tree Classic Bloody Mary and Fever-Tree Classic & Light Margarita.

Mixing with the Best

Known for setting the standard for innovation, Fever-Tree continues to enhance both the consumer and industry takes on these hugely popular, rapidly preimmunizing established drinks and bar calls. Over the past three years, the premium cocktail mixer category has grown by 27% thanks to the popularization of premium spirits and is poised for tremendous growth over the next three years. This along with Fever-Tree’s demonstrated success in carbonated mixer category sets the brand up to revolutionize the premium non-carbonated category and once again to deliver on taste, quality ingredients and ease.

Fever-Tree Classic Bloody Mary and Fever-Tree Classic & Light Margarita introduces a better way to mix while upping the ante with flavor profiles that are unique, enticing and can be used in a variety of ways across the bar. These three mixers are typically time-consuming to make, with three or more ingredients, but the Fever-Tree range simplifies this process and celebrates the occasion so that everyone, from home bartenders to bar pros, can have the confidence to easily make a lighter, sophisticated, quality drink with just two ingredients, a garnish and absolutely no compromise.
