Built for Real Service. Designed to Perform
Most venues already offer cocktails — but very few have the systems or team performance to support them properly.
At CJ Drinks, the focus is simple: building cocktail menus, training teams, and refining service systems so drinks are delivered quickly, consistently, and profitably — even during high-pressure service.
This isn’t theory. It’s built around real environments, real teams, and real service.
With over 15 years of hands-on experience across both high-end and local hospitality venues, along with formal qualifications including WSET Level 2 in Wine, WSET Level 2 in Spirits, and International Tequila Academy Level 1, CJ Drinks brings a practical, real-world approach to beverage development and team performance.
Chris has also designed cocktail menus for a range of establishments across Christchurch and collaborated with distilleries to create cocktails that not only showcase their products, but perform in real service
These drinks don't just look good - they sell and work under pressure

The focus is on helping your team move faster, work smarter, and deliver drinks consistently under pressure — not just when it’s quiet, but when it actually matters.
This is about building confidence behind the bar, reducing errors, and creating a level of consistency your customers can rely on.
