Introducing Mamba Mary: A Bold Taste of Passion and Perfection!

Cape Town has a new contender for the title of Queen of Cocktails, and her name is Mamba Mary!

The brainchild of Michelle Hilton, a globetrotting culinary maven with an unrelenting zest for life and flavor, Mamba Mary is more than just a Bloody Mary mix—it’s a testament to the art of reinvention and the pursuit of perfection.

Born and raised amidst the bustle of South Africa, Michelle’s roots are as colorful as her career.

With a Swiss confectioner for a father and a spirited South African mother, her childhood was steeped in the family’s confectionery and catering business. From mastering the sweetness of chocolate to understanding the grit of hard work, Michelle’s formative years were a crash course in creativity and tenacity.

Michelle’s culinary journey took her far and wide. From the cobbled streets of Europe to the vibrant markets of South America, and finally, to the turquoise waters of the Caribbean, she perfected her craft as a chef on luxury charter yachts. For a decade, she delivered exquisite dining experiences across the globe, proving that her talent was as boundless as her spirit.

Eventually, the culinary adventurer anchored herself in South Carolina, where she fell in love with the ritual of Sunday brunch, accompanied by the perfect Bloody Mary. But when life brought Michelle back to Cape Town, she was met with a disappointing reality: the local Bloody Mary offerings didn’t quite live up to her Southern standards.

Not one to settle for mediocrity, Michelle transformed her frustration into innovation. With a pinch of nostalgia, a dash of determination, and her own kitchen as the testing ground, Mamba Mary was born. Spicy yet approachable, bold but never overpowering, this handcrafted mix is a celebration of her journey and a love letter to flavor enthusiasts everywhere.

Mamba Mary captures the essence of Michelle Hilton—vibrant, adventurous, and unapologetically bold. Whether it’s the star of your Sunday brunch or the secret ingredient in your favorite cocktail, this mix promises to elevate every sip with its balanced blend of heat and flavor.

Now you are invited to join her on this delicious adventure. So, go ahead, pour yourself a glass, and let Mamba Mary add a little spice to your life. Cheers to Michelle’s flavorful journey—and yours!
