Founder of Black Woman-Owned Beverage Brand Debuts All-Natural Premium Cocktail & Mocktail Mixers

Toni Gilliard, Founder and CEO of Resort Beverage Co.

Toni Gilliard, Founder and CEO of Resort Beverage Co., a Black woman-founded and NMSDC-certified company, announces the launch of its debut line of all-natural, agave-sweetened margarita mixers. Engineered for modern inclusivity, Resort Mixers provide a premium, dual-purpose base for crafting bar-quality cocktails and sophisticated mocktails in seconds—perfectly aligning with the values of connection, celebration, and conscious consumption central to culture and family gatherings.

In a beverage market where options have often felt limiting, Resort Mixers arrive as a versatile solution. They empower hosts to effortlessly cater to every guest’s preference, whether they’re enjoying a spirited margarita or a zero-proof sip, ensuring no one settles for a subpar drink. The launch directly serves the growing "sober curious" movement and the desire for elevated, convenient home entertainment—trends strongly embraced within the Black community.

“Our mission is to make every gathering feel inclusive and elevated,” says Toni. “Growing up, the heart of our home was the kitchen and the dining table, where everyone was welcome. We’re crafting Resort to be that same symbol of hospitality—a premium, accessible tool that puts a delicious, craft-culture drink in everyone’s hand, without compromise. It’s about flavor, freedom, and bringing people together.”
