Our Story
How IT all started
Rivergreen Cocktails was founded in the summer of 2020 in Louisville, Kentucky—my (Danielle, CEO) “COVID baby,” born during an unusual time. I was working full-time as an OB/GYN while raising three children, but the pandemic slowed down life just enough for me to pursue a new passion. While the market for Ready-To-Drinks (RTDs) was booming, I noticed a gap as it shifted from malt-based to spirit-based drinks. After a deep dive into the world of canned cocktails, I realized there was a real opportunity to create something unique: premium gin cocktails crafted with real fruit juices, natural sweeteners, and a strong ABV for an authentic experience.
Bringing these kitchen creations to market was a challenge! When we couldn’t find a manufacturer dedicated to using only natural ingredients, we decided to produce the cocktails ourselves. Self-manufacturing has allowed us to ensure quality and freshness while enjoying the creative process.
Since our start, we’ve expanded throughout Kentucky, entered Ohio in 2024, and plan to enter a new market in spring 2025. We’re having an incredible time growing Rivergreen and are thrilled to have you along on the journey. We hope you enjoy our all-natural gin cocktails and welcome your feedback. Cheers!
