FREDERICK, Md. – Mark’s Mocktails earned medals for all four flavors at WSWA Access LIVE 2026 in Las Vegas, a major milestone for the brand’s non-alcoholic ready-to-drink mocktails.

The brand’s Mojito led the lineup with a Double Gold Medal and a 98-point rating, taking Best in Show for Non-Alcoholic Ready-to-Drink. The Mojito was also recognized as a Top 10 Best in Show product and received a bid for entry into the 2026 San Francisco World Spirits Competition.

In addition to Best in Show, the other flavors in the Mark’s Mocktails lineup were recognized with Silver Medals:

Cranberry Mule

Paloma

Spicy Pineapple Margarita

WSWA Access LIVE is one of the beverage industry’s premier events, bringing together suppliers, distributors, and retailers from across the country. Its blind tasting competition evaluates products based on quality, balance, flavor, and overall experience, making recognition across the full Mark’s Mocktails lineup a notable achievement.

“These awards are incredibly meaningful to us,” said Mark Mozier, Founder of Mark’s Mocktails. “To have every flavor recognized – and for our Mojito to earn Best in Show – validates our mission to create elevated, non-alcoholic cocktails that stand shoulder-to-shoulder with traditional cocktails.”

Founded in 2025 and launched in October, Mark’s Mocktails ships nationally online and is available in more than 230 stores and restaurants across Maryland, Washington, D.C., and Delaware. The company continues to build momentum by expanding awareness in the non-alcoholic ready-to-drink category. Market research firm IWSR forecasts that the U.S. non-alcoholic market will grow at an 18% compound annual growth rate from 2024 to 2028 and reach nearly $5 billion by 2028. 

Mark’s Mocktails are crafted with real fruit juice and natural flavors and sweetened with granulated sugar (no high-fructose corn syrup). They’re caffeine free, gluten free, kosher and vegan. Sold in four-packs of 12-ounce cans, they’re perfect straight out of the can, poured over ice, or mixed into a traditional cocktail.

About Mark’s Mocktails

Based in Frederick, Md., Mark’s Mocktails redefines what non-alcoholic ready-to-drink mocktails can be, offering premium options for mindful drinkers, social occasions, and anyone seeking great taste without compromise.
