8th September, Mumbai, Maharashtra: BuzzBallz, the easy-to-drink flavored alcoholic beverage known for its brightly colored, instantly recognizable ball-shaped packaging and bold flavors, is bringing its signature “Pop. Sip. Buzz.” experience in Maharashtra, with the brand now available across Pune and launching in Mumbai by the end of the month. The expansion follows strong consumer response since the brand’s India debut in Bangalore this past December and subsequent entry into Goa in May.
“The response we have seen to BuzzBallz in India has been incredibly encouraging, and Maharashtra was a market we were particularly excited about entering,” said Jess Scheerhorn, President, BuzzBallz. “We’ve seen incredible momentum since our launch in late 2025, and that response tells us adult Indian consumers are ready for a bolder, more convenient way to enjoy cocktails. With BuzzBallz now available in Pune and set to launch in Mumbai this month- the interest we have seen across Maharashtra from retailer and distributor enthusiasm to consumers asking us on social media when BuzzBallz would land in their city- has been incredibly encouraging. Maharashtra’s scale and energy make it the perfect stage for BuzzBallz to grow its footprint even further.”
With Mumbai and Pune now added to the map, BuzzBallz is live across three states and four cities in under a year, cementing its position as one of the fastest-scaling easy-to-drink brands in the country. The brand brings its signature 180 ml ball-shaped pack and punchy 15% ABV to Maharashtra, priced at INR 125. Designed for grab-and-go convenience, the flavors are exclusive-to-India offerings inspired by the country’s love for interesting, vibrant tastes combinations
Flavour Details:
- Berry Lemon Squeeze – Tangy and zesty Berry and Lemon flavor
- Strawberry Squeeze – Juicy and refreshing Strawberry and Lemon flavor
- Chili Guava Groove – Sweet and spicy Guava Chilli flavor
- *NEW* Jamun Mint Pop – Sweet Jamun with a minty kick flavor
“BuzzBallz has captured a sizeable share of the market in the markets where it is currently available, and we believe that comes down to offering consumers something genuinely distinctive. From the instantly recognizable ball-shaped pack and bold flavors to the 15% ABV and convenient single-serve format, the proposition is unlike much of what consumers have traditionally encountered in the category. As Indian consumers become more experimental in their choices, we see a real opportunity for brands that can bring together flavor, convenience and a sense of fun,” added Scheerhorn.
The expansion comes at a time when India’s ready-to-drink segment is gaining momentum, with consumers increasingly exploring convenient, flavor-led formats that offer a fresh alternative to traditional beverage choices. According to IWSR, the ready-to-drink category in India is projected to grow at a 6% CAGR through 2034, ahead of the projected growth for several traditional beverage alcohol categories. For a brand built on convenience and bold flavor, there’s no better time, or place, for BuzzBallz to make its next move.
With further city and state expansion planned across India, BuzzBallz continues to redefine how easy-to-drink beverages are enjoyed in the country, bringing together convenience, flavor, and fun in every sip.
