“Two best friends who met through social media, started a company together and are ready to take over the beverage industry!”
We're Becca and Nicole, co-founders of Mockadrop, a zero-sugar, zero-calorie, electrolyte packed, mocktail liquid beverage enhancer (think of Mio or crystal light except fun!). We met through an Instagram DM, became bestfriends, and eventually turned a shared frustration — that there wasn't a great sugar-free option for an elevated cocktail/ mocktail hour — into an actual product with three flavors now heading to launch.
Neither of us came from the beverage industry, so we've learned everything in real time together: flavor development and formulation, FDA compliance and labeling, finding a co-packer, building a brand from scratch, and throwing our first launch tasting event for 60 people in South Florida.
We make great guests for conversations on: building a business with your best friend (the real version — the tension and the trust, not just the highlight reel), what it actually takes to launch a physical product as first-time founders, and navigating launching a business in this generation. We bring specific, honest stories from both sides of the partnership, not just polished talking points — happy to go deep on any part of the journey.
