Meet Our Queen: Ashalee Dipzinski

I never planned to build a brand. I just wanted a Bloody Mary that lived up to the legend.

Fifteen years ago, somewhere over the Rockies, I ordered a drink that changed everything. It was bold, balanced, and unforgettable. I remember thinking, why can’t they all taste like this? By the time the plane landed, I had a new obsession.

Back home in Cincinnati, I started experimenting behind the bar—part mixologist, part mad scientist, part perfectionist. Every pour was a lesson in patience and persistence. I wasn’t chasing trends; I was chasing flavor, fire, and that feeling you get when a drink just hits right.

That obsession became The Queen’z Elixir, a low-sodium, all-natural Bloody Mary mix with attitude. It’s crafted for those who crave a little edge with their elegance and a little spice with their sparkle.

Today, through Queen’z Mixing Co., I’m building more than a business. I’m building a movement. A Tribe of Queenz who lift each other up, celebrate their wins, and always keep their crowns high, even on those recovery Sunday mornings.

Here’s to confidence served bold, to women who shake things up, and to every queen who rises to the occasion.

👑 All rise for the Queen of Brunch.
