Three ways to build a business on wine-based cocktails
Whether you pour drinks for guests, want to launch a daiquiri-to-go operation, or move cases as a distributor — there’s a Specialty Blends partnership built for how you make money. Pick your lane below.
From stadium concessions to the corner drive-thru
The same wine-based cocktails that hold up at AT&T Stadium, Schlitterbahn, and Cinemark run just as profitably at a single-location restaurant or daiquiri window.
The business case, in four cards
It’s legal
Wine-based, ≤24% ABV — serves on the beer & wine permit you already hold. No liquor license, no wait.
It’s cost-effective
Skip the liquor-license overhead and the mixed-beverage tax burden that full-bar operators carry.
It’s profitable
Cocktail menu prices on beer & wine economics — the highest-margin pours in the building.
It’s delicious
Quality ingredients and recipes perfected over 25 years. It’s a genuine, full-flavored drink, not a compromise.
