Not just an audience. An audience with intent.

People come to Cr(af)ted because they are actively looking for something: a cocktail to make, an ingredient to use, a bottle to buy, a technique to learn, or a better way to serve alcohol-free drinks. That creates natural places for the right brands to participate without interrupting the experience.

Product Launches

Launch where discovery is already happening.

The alcohol-free category has moments when attention accelerates. Sober October. Dry January. The holidays. Summer entertaining. And increasingly, every day in between.

Cr(af)ted gives new and growing brands a place to launch into that attention, not with a banner ad, but through discovery, education, and use.

We can introduce a product through original recipes, ingredient education, editorial storytelling, email, search-optimized content, homepage visibility, and seasonal programming, giving people more than a reason to notice it. We give them a reason to understand it, try it, and use it.

Introducing something new?

A launch shouldn’t disappear when the campaign ends.

Cr(af)ted can build a permanent foundation around a new product while creating concentrated visibility around launch. That can include a Crafted With brand story, original recipes, ingredient education, editorial coverage where appropriate, newsletter exposure, homepage placement, seasonal integration, and search-optimized content.

The launch creates attention. The content keeps working afterward.

Ways to Partner

Crafted With

Put your product where it naturally belongs. Crafted With integrates a select product into the Cr(af)ted experience through dedicated brand storytelling, original recipes built around it, product education, homepage visibility, and contextual links throughout the site. It is a permanent, search-optimized asset, not a banner that scrolls past.

A few partners already featured this way: Mod Elixirs Β· Regatta Craft Mixers Β· Cocktail Kingdom Β· All The Bitter.

Sponsored Programs

Own a moment.

Sober October and Dry January are two of the biggest discovery periods in alcohol-free drinking. They are also moments when established brands introduce new products, consumers reconsider what is in their glass, and new customers enter the category.

Don’t wait until the conversation has already started. Cr(af)ted can build a coordinated launch or sponsorship around the moment, with recipes, education, editorial, email, search content, and on-site visibility working together to introduce your product when people are actively looking for what is next.

Illustrative examples (not current sponsorships):

  • Sober October, presented by your brand
  • Dry January, presented by your brand
  • The Alcohol-Free Home Bar Starter Guide, presented by your brand
  • Cr(af)ted Academy, presented by your brand
  • An Occasion guide or seasonal recipe collection
  • A dedicated newsletter edition

Program sponsorships are built around the moment, the audience, and the brand. Tell us what you are launching, or when you need to be visible, and we will build the right program around it.

Founding Sponsor

Become a Founding Sponsor.

For a small number of aligned partners, Cr(af)ted offers a broader, ongoing presence across the platform. A founding partnership puts your brand inside the places where people discover, learn about, and use alcohol-free products throughout the year. It is built together around the partner and the audience rather than assembled from a rate card.

A founding partnership can include:

  • Persistent brand presence across the site
  • Category exclusivity where appropriate (for example, the alcohol-free bitters or mixer partner)
  • Newsletter integration
  • Seasonal program sponsorship
  • Original recipe development throughout the year
  • Product integration across recipes, ingredients, tools, and occasions where relevant
  • Custom editorial opportunities
  • Homepage presence

Founding partnerships start around $6,000 / year

Scope, exclusivity, and terms are shaped together. This is a conversation, not a checkout.

No ad clutter. No programmatic network.

Cr(af)ted is not built around anonymous display advertising. We work with a limited number of brands that genuinely belong in the experience: products and partners that help our audience make, serve, and enjoy better alcohol-free cocktails.

A brand should appear because it belongs in the experience, not because an ad server bought the impression. Our Jour(na)l stays independent; paid features live where they are clearly marked, and that support is what keeps the recipes, guides, and education free for everyone else.

Built on years inside the alcohol-free category.

Illustrated portrait of Brian D Miller, creator of Cr(af)ted

Brian D. Miller has worked in alcohol-free drinks since 2019, when his agency MillerSmith worked with Seedlip as the category was beginning to emerge in the United States. He later founded Seir Hill, an award-winning alcohol-free spirits brand acquired in 2024.

That experience spans both sides of the table: building brands and helping brands communicate, launch, and grow. Cr(af)ted brings that experience together in a platform built specifically around how people discover, understand, and use alcohol-free products.

Partner with Cr(af)ted and you are working with someone who understands what it takes to bring an alcohol-free product to market.
