BARRY & PATRICK have had a long-time friendship through their boys playing sports together. Barry spent four years with RISE Brewing Co., the ready-to-drink canned coffee company, where he created sales & marketing materials, along with package design. When Patrick said, “I’ll drink anything, including hose water,” Barry took that as a challenge to create a joke can. It turned into a night of “what if” conversations and into a full-blown business idea.

HOSE WATER COCKTAILS
CORPORATE HEADQUARTERS

Hose Water Cocktails proudly operates out of a camping tent we bought in a thrift store. Not because we’re outdoorsy — it’s just the only office space that fit our budget and our childhood-level expectations. We had big dreams of a fancy startup loft with reclaimed wood and overpriced swivel chairs, but instead we’ve got two folding stools, a battery lantern, and a strong belief that billion-dollar ideas can absolutely be born in a tent that smells vaguely like last summer. Honestly, it’s on-brand. Hose Water started in the yard — why wouldn’t our headquarters be there too?

Mixed Citrus, a Taste of Honey

& Two Shots of Smooth Bourbon​ 

Zesty lemon, a hint of sweetness, and a splash of “don’t worry, we’re ‘adults’ now.” It’s everything you loved about childhood summer – including the mischief, the mayhem, and the nonstop laughter.
