Ever since Mainstay launched their 3 Liter “ready to drink” Classic Cocktail range in South Africa in 2010 the brand has gone from strength to strength.  The Mainstay Mojito, Strawberry Daiquiri and Pina Colada cocktails have been flying of the shelves, achieving higher than expected volume growth. Because of the rapid increase in both volume and consumer demand, Mainstay introduced a 1 litre pack in September 2011.

This year the team at Mainstay went one step further and as from June fans of this popular brand can enjoy a new refreshing cocktail called “… on the Beach”.  The new variant, commonly known as ‘Sex on the Beach’, is made from Mainstay Premium Original combined with real orange, peach and cranberry pulp, making a refreshing ready mixed cocktail. The … on the Beach is refreshing, exotic and extremely tasty and not at all overly sweet.

The new 1 liter packaging also offers the added benefit of being able to be sealed again after opening. It can also be frozen to allow for the product to turn to a slushy consistency.

Over the past couple of years the South African market saw similar pre-mix offerings but Mainstay remains the only legitimate cocktail premix as it contains more than two ingredients.

Mainstay Premium Original, the base ingredient to all Mainstay cocktails, has been scooping international awards recently, having won Best Vodka at the International Wine & Spirit Competition (IWSC), as well as Silver in the Vodka Category at the New York Spirits Competition.

The ready to drink cocktail range can be purchased from leading liquor retailers nationwide and are available in a 1 litre box for R40 and a 3 litre box for R105.
