Keeping my promise to my daughter.

Aim

To build and create my own drinks range to help keep my promise to my new born daughter Christmas 2020.

My story begins on Christmas Day 2020 when I got the best present and became a daddy for the first time. Holding that tiny baby in my arms made the world literally stop in a magical moment. But in this moment when my daughter was in my arms I promised her I'd create a way to change the world for her and her mummy.

•  Then it was took away from me as I was sent home without my family.
• I sat out in the car park for hours on a video call just so I could see my baby girl.
• Then I drove to my parents to see them and tell them the news but I couldn't settle as I was not wanting to be anywhere but the hospital with my daughter.
• My dad give me a beer but I wouldn't drink it as I was driving.
• Stayed for maybe two hours but I wasn't really there my heart was in the hospital.
• Headed back home to be closer.
• Sat in my house alone and eventually I reached for two things... The beer my dad give me and a sketch book and I drew a wolf face.
• I hadn't drew something so detailed from I was in school.
• As I finished my beer I made another silent promise to myself to create something that will endure for generations to provide for my family.
• Worked damn hard for a company for near five years but got replaced by six people and forced out away from my job while still owed a substantial amount of money.
• That Friday night in January 2025, my wife and I were placed into an emergency kinship program for a family members two kids.
• The kinship program was hard as we already had our own three kids now and two extra kids to look after.
• We now had five kids under nine, me with no job and no income to help.
• So my wife worked as many hours as she could between her job and working at weddings.
• Leaving me at home in a hard and very testing house. With little to no help from the social services in regards to the kinship kids.
• We endured this for over nine months and I stayed up late every night trying everything to help earn money to the the pressure of my wife.
• Nothing worked and nothing helped so I made my own help.
• One night I came across my wolf face drawing and I knew what I had to do.
• I created my own online platform called the emerald wolf initiative which is a Celtic/Nordic merged culture and mythology but through natural progression I've also created my own vast drinks range.
• I got everything in place. I've got the products, the packaging, legal requirements.
• I've got distribution sorted and in place on a worldwide scale.
• I've got the flavours to become a "new standard" drinks empire.
• My drinks include Bourbon, Irish whiskey, beers, wine range with over 200 approved flavours, dark spiced rum, tequila, Irish absinthe, energy drinks with over 100 flavours, unique game changing stouts, honey vodka syrup meads, frozen vanilla vodka, kids soft drinks and even a ice cold glacier water range that will always stay cold.
• I've got a unique hexagonal bottle design across my whole range to resemble the giants causeway as I'm from Northern Ireland. These bottles will really stand out against the traditional rounded bottle.
• All my drinks come with an individual promise to the members that will buy them... From my Oathkeeper bourbon as my promise to my daughter, my beautiful banshee wines, my energy drinks will awaken the beast within but unlike other brand that lease a chalky dusty taste in your mouth mine won't, my kids drinks have the slogan "protection by the pack" but it's not just a catchy slogan my bottles will actually glow in the dark to actually provide protection from the monsters that are in kids rooms at night. 
• More bottle more glow and the bottle design will all find together nicely like honeycomb adding another simple little touch for the kids.
• All my bottles will come with a QR code that will bring buyers to my online platform where they can be immersed into a magical world but also where the can purchase my drinks as well as from shops.
• My kids drinks will have a QR code to buy this QR will take them to a safeguarded interactive YouTube channel that will be developed to teach the right from wrong morals I was brought up with.
• It will be made into different age group sections... Young kids under 10 that their parents can see everything. Teenagers that will be taught different ways of getting through life(like an ask dad sort of thing) and older teenagers that will be taught how to go into life after school.
• There also the philanthropy side that I'm hoping to use my drinks to help with. I want to help the homeless get accommodation and hot meals everyday. I want to help older people live again, I will have a section in my platform for new parents that if they need help they can ask for it, even if they aren't members, stuff like nappies, baby formula, clothes. My team and I are going to be the help if they need it cause I know it can be hard being a new parent.
• I've also got a customisable bedtime story for kids to create a magical bedtime experience for both kids and parents alike that will perfectly go along with the night light bottles.
• I've got everything sorted except the funding behind me so that's where you the public will hopefully come in.
• Help me create my drinks on a long term basis and more importantly help me keep my promise I made to my new born daughter on that lonely 2020 Christmas night.

I've added a few landing pages to showcase the drinks in looking ti create along with a back story for each drink.
