What’s it really like to build a craft cocktail brand from the ground up? When we started Cape Cod’r, friends and family would often ask: “So, what do you actually do?” The truth? It’s hard to sum up. From selling, sampling, and promoting to getting “sips to lips,” building Cape Cod’r has been an adventure. Behind the scenes, we’ve tackled everything—pricing, packaging, distribution, and finding the perfect team. Creating a brand people love is a full-time hustle, and we wouldn’t trade it for anything. We’ve felt the love from our customers, and watching our brand grow has been incredible. But let’s be honest—some days feel like taking punches from Mike Tyson (in his prime). The good news? We love this journey, and we’re ready to pull back the curtain to share it with you. Stay tuned as Will Patch, Kevin O'Leary, and Taylor Bramhall take you behind the scenes: 👉 The day-to-day realities of building Cape Cod’r. 👉 The wins, challenges, and lessons we’ve learned along the way. 👉 Stories about life on the Cape and what inspires us. 👉 What it’s really like to create a lifestyle brand rooted in the Cape Cod spirit. Whether you’re an entrepreneur, Cape Cod lover, cocktail connoisseur, or just curious about how brands come to life, we hope these posts inspire, entertain, and resonate with you. Have a topic you’d love us to cover? Drop a comment below—we’d love to hear from you! Also make sure to subscribe to our journey https://capecodr.com/

2024 should be a very good year for RTDs according to Liz Paquette, the head of consumer insights at Drizly, an Uber Company: Consumers Ready to Try New RTD Cocktails Thirty-four percent of survey participants, up from 32 percent last year, said they plan to buy RTD cocktails in the coming year, and the majority plan to try new brands in 2024. Reflecting the ever-increasing popularity of the category, the number of RTD cocktail producers on Drizly surged 47 percent in the past year to more than 1,000. Ready-to-drink cocktails have risen to 3 percent share of total sales on Drizly in 2023, surpassing hard seltzer which sits at 2 percent of share. “In the beginning, the appeal of the category was a result of several attributes, including its correlation to the cocktail boom and the diversity of options,” says Paquette. “Many consumers also reached for RTDs because the category offered more ingredient transparency than competing categories like hard seltzer. As the category matures, it continues to expand the breadth of the offerings, with nearly every popular cocktail now available in a convenient, ready-to-enjoy format.” #rtd #rtdcocktails #readytodrink #drizly
