    EPISODE 16: Manny's Ultimate Mixes with founder Manny Ferreira

    In today's episode I had the pleasure of talking with Manny Ferriera, founder/owner of Manny's Ultimate Mixes. Manny's Ultimate Bloody Mary (the original product) has been a passion project for over 20 years, shaped by Manny's pioneering approach to mixology. What started as a quest for the perfect cocktail evolved into a groundbreaking focus on flavor profiles, driven by feedback from his female clientele. Manny's blend is a harmonious mix of natural ingredients, and he recommends enjoying it "AS IS" – anytime, anywhere. Surveys reveal that 80% of consumers prefer it straight from the jar, with 40% enjoying it as a breakfast drink akin to a V8. Manny's dedication to quality is unwavering, and he confidently asserts that "Manny's UBM will never disappoint!"
