Lil Yachty just dropped a new Piña flavor for Yacht Water.
My son Taven, his buddies and I have seen him perform at Summer Smash and Rolling Loud. Big fans. Rooting him on.

I mean......you'd have to try it, right? You can't let "May the 4th be with you" go without thinking about blue milk!!
The Wine Group just acquired Phony Negroni, a non-alc cocktail brand out of Brooklyn.
We've watched the non-alc trend grow for years. But acquisitions? That's when you know a category has truly arrived.
Big companies don't write big checks on fads. 🍹
Relying on a single co-packer is one of the most common mistakes I see growing beverage brands make.
Freight costs. Line downtime. Missed networking opportunities.
And building those relationships costs nothing.
When your brand takes off, scramble — or make one phone call?
Happy Dolphy Day to my Phin Pham! 🐬
And this fall my daughter Paige heads to Le Moyne — she gets to experience this for herself. Can't wait. Phins Up!!
25 years ago, Shioban was bartending and I was serving at Zebb's in Mattydale, NY, making chocolate and vanilla Pepsi. Our "dirty sodas" were 25 years ahead of the Tik Tok trend!
Fast forward to this week — McDonald's just rolled out "dirty sodas" to 45,000 stores!
Zing Zang just dropped an Espresso Martini Mix. ☕🍸
Not personally my drink — but brilliant move. They own the Bloody Mary space, espresso martinis are everywhere right now, and their brand equity travels perfectly.
That's how you grow a portfolio.
PBR + Grillo's Pickles just made the 'spear in a beer' official with a limited-edition Pickle Beer. 🥒🍺
Thought Busch Apple was a stretch? That thing took off. Never underestimate a bold flavor collab.
I'm absolutely trying this when it drops May 4th.
As a huge fan of The Finnish Long Drink, today's news made me smile.
Mark Anthony is acquiring them. The White Claw team now behind one of the best RTD products on the market.
I know members of both teams, and I'm pumped for all of them.

Maxx Crosby's time with the Raiders is most likely DONE, per @JayGlazer 👀
What kind of haul would the five-time Pro Bowler get in the trade market? 🤔
