Brutal Fruit Spritzer’s exclusive Birthday Brunch

Brutal Fruit Spritzer’s first birthday celebrations held in Jozi today proved that success really does taste better shared. Over 100 of South Africa’s most powerful influencers and media personalities joined the brand at an exclusive birthday brunch at a unique location, The Execuflora Greenhouse near Fourways, set amongst lush greenery in the heart of the city.

Brutal Fruit’s #SpritzerBirthdayBrunch offered guests a mouth-watering menu that incorporated some of the Spritzer’s ingredients into the food. From mini watermelon cakes drizzled with Brutal Fruit Spritzer to a syrup tailor-made for the event, guests were treated to a blissfully special occasion.


Brutal Fruit Brand Manager Gugu Dlamini says: “Brutal Fruit believes in the power of the collective, South Africans – supporting and celebrating each other’s successes and milestones in life. Brutal Fruit is proud to be the curator of these influential collectives. This is the very essence of our brand ethos – simply that success tastes better shared.”

Makinwa joined us in SA and celebrated her own birthday alongside Brutal Fruit Spritzer, and
as the keynote speaker she spoke about her own personal success, which she largely attributes to the support she received from various women throughout her life. Makinwa encouraged guests not to compare themselves with others and to always celebrate their own progress, no matter how small or slow it may seem.


Celebrated South African MC Candice Modiselle, South Africa’s incredible singer and
songwriter Shekhinah; the very talented Thabsie , DJs Nel and Mmiso kept the celebrations
going well into the afternoon, as guests enjoyed the easy-drinking and sophisticated taste of
Brutal Fruit Ruby Apple Spritzers. Celebrities and influencers spotted at the event included

It makes for the perfect drink to be shared with your favourite people at brunchtime, summertime, pretty much anytime – something to be enjoyed with your special squad.
