Like most great ideas, Happy Juice Express started out of necessity. DJ B-Lord, a South Carolina-based DJ and radio personality, was starting to feel the strain of high bar tabs when he and his friends would enjoy a few drinks while he DJed at events.

In September 2008, he decided to take matters into his own hands and mixed up a red “happy juice” concoction to take with him to his gig that night at The Coop in Columbia, SC. He slapped a smiley face sticker on the side of a clear plastic bottle, and “Happy Juice” was born.

Immediately, DJ B-Lord’s “Happy Juice” became a favorite among SC party-goers, spawning drink specials at the bar and happiness for all. The buzz that started that night in Columbia spread statewide and developed into a cult-like following.

In 2012, DJ B-Lord met his business partners and developed a plan to bring Happy Juice Express to the masses.

Happy Juice Express is a delicious tropical fruit-flavored alcoholic beverage served in a 24 oz. bottle with 12% ABV, brewed by Carolina Global Brewing in La Crosse, Wisconsin.

Taste is very important to us, and we know it is to you. When we developed our flavor, we set out to create a beverage with a smooth fresh taste and a nice mix of alcohol. With Happy Juice Express, we found the perfect balance.

And in addition to tasting great, the Happy Juice Express brand exemplifies a lifestyle for the free-spirits and go-getters who move through life with a smile.
