Custom RTD & Beverage Manufacturing Concentrate Development (3-Gallon / 55-Gallon Drum / 270-Gallon Tote) is a production-grade formulation program for beverage brands, distilleries, breweries, soda manufacturers, and co-packers building proprietary concentrate systems for commercial packaging.
We develop scalable syrup and concentrate platforms engineered for RTD canning, bottling, sparkling soda production, draft cocktail programs, and zero-proof or functional beverage applications. Every formula is built with manufacturing realities in mind—structured Brix targets, acid architecture, carbonation compatibility, and repeatable batch performance from pilot through national production.
Built for Manufacturing Performance: Many custom flavors perform well in small batches but break under commercial production constraints. We engineer concentrates with packaging, dilution ratios, carbonation pressure, pH targets, and stability requirements defined up front—ensuring consistent sensory performance across cans, bottles, kegs, and scaled distribution. Start with a 15–30 gallon pilot run and scale to full production when you're ready.
How Custom Development Works
Common Commercial Applications
- Signature RTD base concentrates (cocktail, mocktail, functional)
- House mixers for distilleries and hospitality groups
- Draft cocktail & soda systems (kegs, on-premise programs)
- Frozen / slush programs (hopper stability, consistent sensory)
- Cannabis beverage flavor systems (adult flavor architecture & masking)
Need help dialing in specs? We can support sensory targets, scaling ratios, target Brix, acid balance, and carbonation parameters to match your packaging format and production constraints.
Available Formats
Specs & Compliance (Reference)
Final ingredient decks, nutrition panels, and compliance requirements depend on your target category and application. We'll align on targets for sweetener system, acid balance, and required manufacturing constraints during development.
Note: For regulated categories (e.g., cannabis/hemp), your team should validate compliance, stability, and processing requirements for your specific infusion system and jurisdiction.
Custom Bulk Concentrate FAQs
What is this listing for?
This listing is for brands and manufacturers who want a custom-developed Top Hat concentrate supplied in volumes from 3-gallon pilot quantities up to 55-gallon drums and 270-gallon totes for commercial beverage production and co-packing.
Can you develop custom flavors for RTD cocktails and mocktails?
Yes—custom development can be engineered for carbonated RTDs (spirited or zero-proof), with targets aligned to sweetness, acidity, and performance in cans/bottles.
What sizes do you offer?
Custom concentrates are available in three formats: 3-gallon containers for pilot runs (typically 15–30 gallons to validate your process), 55-gallon drums for first production runs and small-to-mid-scale manufacturing, and 270-gallon IBC totes for scaled production with the best per-gallon economics.
Do you offer pilot-run quantities?
Yes. Most of our customers start with a pilot delivery of 15–30 gallons, shipped as individual 3-gallon containers. This gives you enough volume to run test batches, validate your production process, and confirm the sensory profile at scale before committing to drum or tote quantities.
Can you build for draft and frozen/slush systems?
Yes—development can be tuned for dispense behavior, carbonation strategy, temperature, and dilution targets for draft, fountain, and frozen programs.
