Triple Falstaff Success: All Three PLASH Mocktails Awarded 90–92 Points!
Updated: 20 hours ago
An outstanding achievement for our young start-up: All three PLASH Mocktails with electrolytes have received the prestigious “Excellent” rating at the Falstaff Tasting 2026!
We have some fantastic news to celebrate! In the very first year of our young brand, PLASH has achieved an exceptional result at the renowned Falstaff tasting, with all three of our PLASH mocktails being awarded and receiving impressive scores.
What makes this achievement particularly special is that not just one product, but our entire PLASH range has been recognised for its quality.

Three Mocktails. Three Awards. One Remarkable Success!
92/100 Points – MARGARITA Pink Guava
Jury rating: Light pink shimmer and fine perlage are the first impressions. Nasally, dark berries and tropical fruit (guava) set the frame. Fine acidity on the palate lifts the exotic notes, pear and melon can also be associated. But everything: very fresh.
91/100 Points – SPRITZ Orange Ginger
Jury rating: The light orange in the glass anticipates the fragrance to a certain extent: freshly cut Jaffa orange. Minerally permeated is the taste, which has something of orange-limo, but shows significantly less sweetness. The spice is supported by grated ginger.
90/100 Points – MOJITO Lemon Mint
Jury rating: Bright yellow with fine mousse in the glass that brings sparkling lime notes to the nose. Also on the palate with a citrus-fruited species, in which magnesium (like a vitamin tablet) mixes. In the finale, fresh mint flavour makes the "Mojito" touch.
How Impressive Are 92 Falstaff Points?
To put this achievement into perspective, the renowned Champagne "Pommery Rosé Brut Royal" also received 92 points from Falstaff in 2026.
Of course, Champagne and alcohol-free ready-to-drink mocktails belong to different beverage categories and are evaluated according to their respective criteria. Nevertheless, this comparison illustrates just how impressive a 92-point rating is on the Falstaff scale.
For a new brand like PLASH, this recognition is particularly meaningful.
A New Beverage Category with High Quality Standards
PLASH combines the authentic taste of popular cocktails with the functional attributes of an electrolyte drink – completely alcohol-free.
All three flavours offer:
Only between 20-22 kcal per 330 ml can
Just 3 g of sugar per can
Up to 10% real fruit juice
Essential electrolytes: magnesium, calcium, potassium and sodium
100% alcohol-free enjoyment
From the beginning, our vision has been to create a new generation of beverages that brings together great taste, lifestyle and functional ingredients.
These outstanding Falstaff ratings represent valuable recognition of that vision.
A Major Milestone in Our First Year
Developing a completely new beverage concept, bringing it to market within a year and competing alongside established brands requires drive, passion, innovation, persistence and an uncompromising commitment to quality.
Achieving 90-92 points and all three PLASH Mocktails awarded makes this success particularly rewarding.
These awards encourage us to continue establishing PLASH as a distinctive new category of alcohol-free Hydration Mocktails.
We would like to sincerely thank the Falstaff Austria tasting team for their professional evaluation and everyone who has supported and believed in us on our journey so far.
Three flavours. Three excellent ratings. One vision.
PLASH – Where hydration meets great taste!
