Rich "Dick" Johnson, Founder
Our Story
It started in a farmhouse
Thirty years of flavor. One very obvious idea.
Before Dick’s Mixes was a premium craft mixer brand, it was a homemade Bloody Mary poured for family, friends, and anyone lucky enough to be nearby.
It started more than 30 years ago in a farmhouse in Nevada City, where Richard “Dick” perfected his recipe by hand. It became the drink people remembered, the one they asked for again, the one that made ordinary gatherings feel a little more legendary.
Then came the moment that changed everything: a Little League BBQ fundraiser, one sip, and someone saying, “You’ve got to bottle this.”
So we did.
Why We Made Dick’s Mixes
For too long, cocktail mixers have been too artificial, too sugary, too flat, or too forgettable. We knew people deserved better.
Dick’s Mixes was created to bring bold, bar-quality flavor back to the bottle with premium ingredients, no added preservatives, and mixes that are actually ready to pour.
No fake cocktail energy. No shortcut flavor. No sad drinks.
Just real flavor and a real good time.
Premium Ingredients /
No Added Preservatives
Craft Made. Ready to Pour.
Every bottle starts with the same recipe Dick perfected at his kitchen counter: premium juices, real spices, and small-batch production for flavor you can count on. Just add your spirit, pour over ice, and serve a bar-quality cocktail at home. No mixology degree required.
The GOAT gets noticed.
Our mixers have earned recognition for bold flavor, balance, and bar-quality taste, but the real win is watching people come back for another round.
