How did the MIXY drink company get started
Mathis came up with the idea for MIXY after she was unable to find a good cocktail infuser on the market. Se was inspired by a friend who was making her own infused vodka. “I thought it was such a cool concept, but I couldn’t find a product that I liked. So, I decided to make my own,” she said.
Mathis started working on MIXY in 2017 and launched the company in 2018. “I wanted to create a product that was fun and easy to use, so anyone could make great-tasting cocktails at home,” she said.

The Muddle Me kit includes everything you need to infuse your own spirits, including:
- One 375ml bottle of vodka

Mathis is currently working on new products and plans to launch a line of bitters and syrups in the near future.
The process of creating a kit
Mathis begins by coming up with flavor combinations that she thinks will work well together. She then creates a prototype of the kit and taste-tests it with her family and friends. Once she’s happy with the results, she mass-produces the kits and ships them out to customers.
