Welcome to The FreeMind Podcast! In this captivating episode, we sit down with Joey Mintz, the Co-Founder & COO of Siponey Spritz Co (www.siponey.com). Join us as we delve into the journey of an entrepreneur with a passion for crafting unique canned cocktails that stand out in a crowded market.

Joey's story takes us from the bustling streets of NYC to the serene shores of Nicaragua, where he pursued his love for surfing. With international modeling experience and a stint in Chile, Joey's path eventually led him to Amanda, his co-founder, who brought two decades of food and beverage expertise to the table.

Their entrepreneurial journey was inspired by a desire to bring authenticity to the canned cocktail landscape. With distribution in 15 states and a strong online presence across 46 states, Siponey Spritz Co has quickly made its mark. Their primary focus for 2024 and beyond? Expanding their retail wholesale distribution.

Notably, Siponey Spritz Co places a high emphasis on transparency, offering consumers a detailed look at the ingredients in their cocktails, far exceeding regulatory minimum requirements. Their formula leaves no aftertaste, thanks to real wildflower honey sourced from a farm in Lake Champlain, NY.

In this episode, Joey shares their pride in being a Certified B Corp Business, a first in the cocktail industry in the US. They also discuss their commitment to philanthropy, with 1% for the Planet, and the unique distinction of being the first whiskey canned cocktail and aged spirit in a can in the United States.

Discover the intriguing journey behind Siponey Spritz Co, where Joey's horticultural background and Amanda's expertise in craft cocktails merge to create a legacy brand committed to a better planet.
