ABOUT US
Meet Ivory and Ryan Gaines, the powerhouse team behind The Daiquiri Box, a vision that emerged from the challenges of the 2020 pandemic. Inspired by their love for frozen daiquiris during family trips to Louisiana, they turned their dream into reality with a name that hit them while cruising through DFW. Ivory exclaimed, “The Daiquiri Box!” and Ryan was instantly on board.
While their ultimate goal is to build a unique brick-and-mortar location, for now, they’ve pivoted to mobile bartending, bringing the essence of The Daiquiri Box to life at events across the Dallas/Fort Worth metroplex. With Ivory’s background in corporate events and weddings, they've expanded beyond just daiquiris, serving a full menu of craft cocktails and signature mocktails.
Their hustle didn’t go unnoticed. They’ve built momentum through strategic partnerships like a tasting event at a speakeasy-style art gallery and serving up specialty mocktails at the Ballerina’s Ball in support of Brown Girls Do Ballet.
Looking ahead, Ivory and Ryan are determined to book 80% of their weekends, continuing to grow their mobile bartending service while chasing their dreams. As they push forward, one thing remains constant: “We ride for each other!” Their journey is far from over, and they’ll keep building The Daiquiri Box—together.
