For bartenders, beverage directors, RTD builders, and beverage professionals.

Discover how 3BR Distillery’s Lemon Bear-y Pie RTD evolved from a fresh bar cocktail into an award-winning, shelf-stable, ready-to-drink product—and what that process can teach you about building RTDs that actually sell.

Starting with MENDEL Vodka (distilled entirely from garden peas), this seminar walks through the full bar-to-bottle journey: flavor formulation, production scaling, and creative menu integration—without sacrificing balance, texture, or identity.

You’ll learn how to:

• Translate fresh cocktails into scalable, shelf-stable RTDs
• Protect flavor, acidity, and mouthfeel at production scale
• Use RTDs to create year-round menu variations
• Balance craft creativity with modern beverage efficiency

This isn’t a brand pitch.
It’s a practical, behind-the-scenes RTD playbook for professionals who want to turn great drinks into profitable, ready-to-drink success stories.
