New York, NY – Introducing Smooth Tauker, a new ready-to-drink alcohol brand based in New York, that brings the authentic taste of non-carbonated Mojitos and Mexican Mules straight to your fingertips. Founded by lifelong friends Cole and Giancarlo, Smooth Tauker embodies the spirit of camaraderie and community, blending delicious cocktails with a mission to give back.

Co-Founder Cole Orent, from Huntington, NY, and Giancarlo, from Manhasset, NY, share a bond that goes back to their high school days on Long Island. From kicking soccer balls across the field to spending summers out in Montauk, their friendship has been filled with countless memories, laughter, and shared aspirations. The idea for Smooth Tauker came to life during one of their many casual Sunday morning conversations, inspired by a joke about becoming “smooth talkers” after a night of drinks. What started as an inside joke quickly turned into a vision to create a brand that would capture the essence of their favorite cocktails in a new, convenient way.

Smooth Tauker offers a fresh take on classic cocktails. Their Mojito and Mexican Mule are crafted with all-natural ingredients, low in calories, sugar, and carbs, and stand out as some of the first non-carbonated versions of these traditional favorites. By removing the carbonation typically found in ginger beer and club soda, Smooth Tauker delivers a smoother, lighter experience with no bloat—perfect for enjoying without the fizz. With only 5% alcohol content, these cocktails are ideal for any occasion, from beach picnics to pool parties.

For Cole and Giancarlo, Smooth Tauker is about more than just making great cocktails; it's about creating moments that bring people together and giving back to the community. They’ve partnered with the Umbrella Organization, an organization that is committed to providing food and clothing to underprivileged families across Latin America. “We are incredibly grateful to create a product that not only reflects our passion but also helps others in need,” says Giancarlo. “Every time someone buys Smooth Tauker, they’re joining us in making an impact.”

Smooth Tauker has already made its mark, with 25 retail accounts across New York City and Long Island. The brand continues to expand, building a presence in local stores, bars, and restaurants, where consumers are embracing the refreshing taste and community-driven mission of these unique cocktails.

Launching Smooth Tauker has been a rewarding journey filled with challenges, from sourcing the finest ingredients to perfecting the balance of flavors. “We’ve poured our hearts into every aspect of this venture,” says Cole. “Our goal is to create a brand that is not just about delicious drinks, but also about celebrating friendship, community, and the memories that come with them.”

As Smooth Tauker continues to grow, Cole and Giancarlo remain dedicated to their shared values of friendship, creativity, and quality. With new flavors on the horizon and a steadfast commitment to giving back, Smooth Tauker is poised to become a staple of social gatherings and meaningful moments. So next time you crack open a can of Smooth Tauker, raise a toast to following your dreams, making an impact, and savoring life’s moments—one smooth sip at a time.
