![]() ![]() ![]() It comes in three flavors, White Tea Peach, Hibiscus Pom and Lemon Iced Tea. ![]() “Carbonated like a seltzer, but with the light refreshing taste of an iced tea, Loverboy marries the perfect balance of organic brewed tea, botanicals, and monk fruit, with gluten-free alcohol to create a keto-friendly 4.2% ABV drink you can sip all day and night,” Cooke’s company pitches. Loverboy is advertised as a 90-calorie, zero-sugar sparkling hard tea “with all the flavor and none of the guilt.” “We have a strong social following,” said Cooke, adding that an additional email list, of hundreds of his New Hampshire contacts, allowed him “to make some noise” when he launched in his home state. Cooke said early buyers have been “Summer House” viewers who, for the past two seasons, watched him and his fiance Amanda Batula, develop the sparkling hard tea line, some of which is shown in episodes of the show. “We keep running out,” said Cooke, a native of Manchester.Ĭases were stacked near the door of the Gary’s Beverages Route 1 Bypass store in Portsmouth last week when a customer buying one said he heard about it from a friend. “It’s a tasty, fun drink,” said Cooke, 38, a four-season member of “Summer House” that showcases young New Yorkers blowing off summer steam at Hamptons houses.Ĭooke launched Loverboy in New Hampshire last month, sold a truckload in two days and it was out of stock for a week before he could get more distributed. Anyways it is just weird to watch since I have seen the accounting for similar businesses and watching him ask Amanda to quit her job seemed like a really bad choice.Cast member of the Bravo TV show ’Summer House,“ and perennial Rye regular, Kyle Cooke developed a line of sparkling hard teas branded “Loverboy” now being sold in New Hampshire. I dunno it just feels like Kyle is trying to live the life of a start up entrepreneur but wants his life to come together at the snap of his fingers. I feel like that instagram coverage would have gotten their foot in the door since they all seem to have build a small following of people. ![]() Like why can't Carl just snap some pictures of establishments the beverage is available. Than he hires Carl, but doesn't put any pressure on him. I have seen boomers never use social media be able to build a solid foundation for a professional to build from. Seriously just take pictures of the places your beverages are available, a few smiling pictures of people drinking, docks, hiking. (Like wtf!) I am not saying social media isn't important but in the early days it isn't that hard to make content. I feel bad for her not getting to have her own career goals.īut he also seems to want to get her on the payroll to suck as much money out of this thing. I feel like he is trying to hold the success of his dream over Amanda's goals of having a family and being able to step back from working to focus on that. Those first few years typically mean 70+hours a week. So they raise like over a million dollars, cool, and Kyle has a new BMW sedan (?) I just started watching with season 4 but having been in the alcohol industry I feel the need to unload.įirstly new entries normally take 3 - 5 years before they turn a profit. ![]()
