Patrick’s Story

From Our Family to Your Glass

Real Fruit. Family Roots. A Passion for Better Drinks.

Natural Fruit Drinks was founded in 2008 with a simple idea: if you want to create an exceptional fruit drink, you have to start with exceptional fruit.

Long before Natural Fruit Drinks, our family’s roots were in farming and agriculture, where we learned that the quality of the final product begins with what you grow and where it comes from. That experience shaped the philosophy we still follow today.

When we started Natural Fruit Drinks, we didn’t simply choose ingredients from a catalog. We traveled, searched, tasted, and personally selected the fruits and sources we believed offered the very best flavor and quality. Many of those relationships, sourcing practices, and standards continue to guide us today.

We Started Small

Natural Fruit Drinks didn’t begin with a large factory or a national distribution network.

We were a small family business making the drink mixes and filling bottles ourselves, doing whatever was necessary to get our products into the hands of customers. We believed that if people could taste the difference, we could build something special.

Little by little, customer by customer, we grew.

Today, Natural Fruit Drinks can be found in restaurants, hotels and resorts throughout the United States and internationally—but we haven’t forgotten how we started or the values that got us here.

Taste Comes First

Our philosophy has always been simple: respect the fruit and let it taste like fruit.

We select real fruit for its natural flavor, aroma, sweetness, color, and character. Our process is designed to retain the desirable pulp and fruit solids, and we never cook the fruit. We add precise amounts of pure cane sugar and pristine water before rapidly blast-freezing our purees to help preserve their fresh flavor and aroma.

Every batch is tasted and evaluated because numbers alone can’t tell you whether something tastes exceptional.

Our standard remains remarkably simple:

Strawberry should taste like strawberry. Mango should taste like mango. Peach should taste like peach.

Still Family Owned. Still Our Standard.

As Natural Fruit Drinks has grown, so has our family involvement. Today, we are proud to remain a family-owned and operated company.

Growth has changed the size of our operation, but it hasn’t changed the principles behind it. The same appreciation for exceptional fruit that began with our family’s agricultural roots continues to influence the ingredients we select, the products we make, and the standards we hold ourselves to.

From making and filling our first bottles ourselves to serving customers across the United States and internationally, our story has always been about more than making frozen drink mixes.

It’s about family, real fruit, hard work, and never forgetting where we came from.
