David Relph, Country Manager UK and Ireland, says:
“Pornstar Martini cocktail arrives just in time for the bumper summer season. The popularity of the Pornstar Martini endures in the UK and we know it’s dangerously drinkable especially over summer as garden parties, meet ups in the park, BBQs, pizza nights and on the go occasions spike.
“Our take on this super-stylish cocktail is a bold and daring drink, with bar-strength abv and we’re confident it will be a firm favourite among cocktail fans and those looking for quality RTDs made with premium ingredients.
“We’ve worked hard to ensure a balanced combination of flavours and it certainly packs our signature BuzzBallz punch. It’s a celebration of flavour bringing an element of fun with a fruity kick – perfect as a summertime sipper.”
David continues:
“There’s a clear trend for higher strength, premium, premixed cocktail RTDs for at-home consumption and consumers are looking for simple, versatile, great-tasting serves that bring excitement to occasions.
“Convenience is a key channel for RTDs due to their impulse nature, so local stores and independent retailers play a key role in getting our drinks in consumers’ hands.
The bold, seven-strong range has established a foothold in the country since its launch last summer. The firm has focused its efforts on winning the convenience channel for the long term with a dedicated six figure investment for summer 2023. Activity includes trade marketing, advertising, social and PR designed to drive wide awareness of the range and the opportunities for retailers and store managers. It has also launched a small fleet of BuzzBallz Cocktails brand builders – a dedicated team and new vehicle livery charged with travelling the country and taking the brand in to convenience retailers, independent stores and off licenses. They will drive brand awareness, act as ambassadors for the brand, advise on best merchandising practice, and host tastings.
In addition, an eye-catching range of 12 packs with convenient shelf-ready packaging launched in April featuring a tear-off section for ease of in-store presentation, bringing a pop of colour to drinks fixtures, aisles and chillers.
