ABOUT US.
Meet the brand.
our story
Shaved Cocktails was born from one simple realisation:
Frozen drinks deserve better.
Inspired by the block-shaving traditions of New Orleans since 1936 where ice is carved into delicate fine ice, we took the craft and gave it an Australian summer style cocktail & mocktail.
We mastered the art of shaving ice just right.
We perfected how syrups sink deep into every snow flake.
We made flavours leave a cool & sweet & refreshing taste.
No weak dilution.
No crunchy ice.
Built for rooftops,nightclubs,cocktail bars & bikinis and beachside cafes, business promotional client events and private functions.
A new standard for frozen cocktails that actually deliver.
Always Better Shaved.
The founders
Meet Kingston and Claire,
the founders of Shaved Cocktails.
Both coming from warm weather states and sharing a love for New Orleans, they created a unique Australian twist on the classic Louisiana snowball combining the fluffiest shaved ice with delicious syrups and toppings for stand out cocktails and mocktails.
Kingston was born and raised in Louisiana, surrounded by the snowball tradition. Together, they brought that same quality, flavour and craftsmanship to Australia. After receiving amazing feedback from venues, they knew it was time to share Shaved Cocktails with everyone.
THE HISTORY OF COCKTAILS
From 200 Years Ago to the Sultry, Sun Soaked Shaved Sensation of 2026
Two centuries ago, cocktails were bold, broody, and buttoned up. Think the Old Fashioned whiskey, sugar, bitters, and a serious cube of ice slowly melting in a dimly lit parlour. Crystal clinking. Low murmurs. A slow stir that felt like foreplay. Sophisticated. Restrained.
Deliciously dramatic.
Fast-forward to 2026... and cocktails have ditched the waistcoat and slipped into bikinis.
From the structured restraint of yesteryear to this Instagram melting fantasy, cocktails have evolved into pure, playful desire, hot on the outside and cooling you within.
Enter the Shaved Cocktail, a tropical, fluffy cloud of ice so soft it practically blushes in the Queensland sun. This isn't just refreshment, it's pure indulgence. Spirits cascade over pillowy shards, absorbing layers of lush sweetness, ripe berries bursting with juicy temptation, tropical fruit flavours dripping sweet
nectar, vibrant syrups that cling and tease. Spirits cascade over snow soft shards. Passionfruit drips like liquid sunshine. Mango glows. Berry syrup clings like it knows what it’s doing. Each delicate flake drinks it all in, releasing flavour slowly, stimulating, cooling, lingering.
From brooding parlours to bikinis and beach beats, cocktails have evolved.
And honestly they are?
Always Better Shaved
