On a mission to make drinks that are anything but ordinary and Bloody Bens is the ingredient for perfect Bloody Marys

About us

Bloody Bens produces drinks that are anything but ordinary. It started with our award winning Bloody Mary Mix - born out of Ben's Canteen which was famous for brunch and Bloody Marys. Customers used to ask for the spice mix to be bottled, so in time for Christmas 2017, that's what we did. We’re big fans of Bloody Marys, when done well, but annoyingly there are lots of ordinary examples out there and we know how hard it is to make a good one at home. We spent a lot of time getting our Bloody Marys just so, combining the right blend of herbs and spices in a mix to deliver a bloody great Bloody Mary, every time. It means anyone can make a great Bloody Mary, in moments. No more delving into the back of the cupboards to find the ingredients you need, just add 25ml of the Mix to Tomato Juice for a Virgin Mary and then add Vodka/Gin for the perfect Bloody Mary. Bloody Bens Bloody Mary Mix is Vegan, Gluten Free and Non-Alcoholic. At the end of 2018, we created Bloody Bens Signature Gin, a London Dry with orange & honey notes. Inspired by trips to Mallorca, the spirit of this gin and label is one of escapism, dreaming and sunny vibes. In 2019, we created a Pink Gin, inspired by Wimbledon Tennis, which tasts of Strawberries & Cream. In 2021 we produced a Spiced Tomato Juice and in 2022, we teamed up with Redroaster, Brighton's best independent coffee roasters, to make a Cold Brew Coffee Liqueur.

    Liquid on lips is the key to growing and driving sales for a drinks brand. And, the absolute embodiment of delivering on this principle is Robert Godber. Breaking my Xmas hols for a quick Bloody Bens co-founder appreciation post. In the lead-up to the big day, he was out there, sometimes squeezing in as many as 3 sampling sessions a day across London and down into Surrey. This in addition to turning up at numerous Christmas fairs and markets, whatever the weather. It's this determination and focus that has led to Bloody Bens Bloody Mary Mix to be listed in 350+ venues. And, in 2025, we're setting ourselves the goal of doubling the amount of listings we have. Will we get there? With this level of Bloody hustle it's much more likely. Why do hospo venues use Bloody Bens Bloody Mary Mix? - Speeds up service - Gives consistency, any member of the team can make a perfect Bloody - No wastage; once opened, lasts at least 6 months in the fridge - Cheaper and delivers better margins than RTD equivalents - Improves customer satisfaction which leads to increased loyalty/repeat visits - Drives incremental sales, people still order beer, wine, coffee, a Bloody Mary is an extra sale - For Sunday Lunch venues looking for ways to maximise busy services, starting guests off with a Bloody Mary is the way and is part of enhancing the guest experience TLDR: it's the ingredient for perfect Bloody Marys.
