About Statesman Beverage Co

Since he turned 21, our founder, Bob, had an important, self-imposed role at social gatherings - to create a unique cocktail that would become the talk of the party. With no formal training, Bob fumbled along year after year until he finally created a new recipe for simple syrup that ENHANCED his already popular sangria recipe. It was an instant hit. It only took a decade, but now with the perfected recipe, you too can be the party expert without the years of practicing on mediocre drinks. Statesman Beverage Co started in 2017 in Houston, TX with one mission - to make craft cocktails simple to make at home with sophisticated, ready-to-use cocktail mixers. Bob debuted Sir Winston's Spiced Simple Syrup to his friends in Christmas of 2016 and immediately sold out. In 2017, he recruited his co-founder Holly, and together, they founded Statesman Beverage Co. Bob and Holly handmade all three cocktail mixers - Spiced Simple Syrup, Mojito Simple Syrup and Earl Grey Old Fashioned Cocktail Syrup - in small batches in Houston, TX.Read their story
