Resort Beverage Co.

Toni Gilliard, a former attorney and seasoned consumer goods entrepreneur, founded Resort Beverage Co.. The company launched in January 2026, originating in Charleston, South Carolina. Gilliard established the business to address a gap in the beverage market for inclusive, high-quality options suitable for both cocktails and mocktails, with a mission to make gatherings feel inclusive and elevated. Resort Beverage Co. produces a line of all-natural, agave-sweetened margarita mixers made with real fruit and organic agave, free from artificial flavors or preservatives. The specific flavors offered are Classico Lime, Pineapple, and Strawberry Margarita. These versatile mixers are designed for use in both alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks. The company has also indicated that canned mixers are "coming soon". Distribution currently includes select Harris Teeter locations in Charleston, South Carolina, and the online store has experienced periods of being temporarily sold out. As a Black woman-founded and NMSDC-certified brand, Resort Beverage Co. is notable for its focus on inclusive product design, catering to conscious consumption and the growing "sober-curious" trend within the beverage industry.
