Our refreshing journey

From restaurant resilience to crafted refreshment

The Pivot that changed everything

March 2020. The world stopped, and so did Morris East's dining room. Jennie Dobbs watched as her 18-year-old restaurant empire—built from $45,000 savings and an Italian wood-fired oven—came to a sudden, terrifying halt. Every employee sent home. Doors locked. Revenue: zero.

But Jennie had weathered storms before. She'd left a finance career in the UK to chase a pizza dream in Halifax. She'd opened a 12-table restaurant at 29 and grown it into two award-winning locations. She'd competed in Las Vegas pizza competitions and won national television features. This wasn't the end—it was a redirection.

"I realized my business could disappear overnight," she reflects. "That's when I decided to diversify so I wouldn't be dependent on one channel."

The seed for Sprizzi was planted in that moment of vulnerability—a determination to create something that couldn't be locked down, something that could travel beyond four walls, something refreshingly resilient.

Crowd Favorites

The refreshing flavors everyone craves for...

Original Limonata

The one that started it all. Italian-style lemonade meets premium vodka in a perfectly balanced spritz. Made with real lemon juice and just a touch of organic cane sugar, this is the taste that sold out stores in two hours. Lively lemon aromas, clean citrus zest flavors, light mouthfeel with elegant tight bubbles. Wonderfully refreshing and dangerously drinkable—your new go-to for pizza nights, patios, and celebrations.

Gin Fizz Lemonade

When gin meets lemonade magic. Canadian gin blended with real lemon juice creates a sophisticated spritz with botanical complexity and refreshing brightness. Light, crisp, and endlessly thirst-quenching—this is what happens when a winemaker brings craft to canned cocktails. Perfect for garden parties, golf courses, and anyone who appreciates the finer bubbles in life.

Maker Behind the Magic

Jennie Dobbs

Award-winning restaurateur redefining what canned cocktails can be.

Jennie Dobbs isn't just a business owner—she's a force of nature wrapped in determination and dusted with flour. At 29, armed with $45,000 in savings and a dream bigger than her 12-table restaurant, she bought a wood-fired oven from Italy and opened Morris East. No culinary school. No restaurant pedigree. Just pure passion, a finance degree from Western Ontario, and an unshakeable belief and inspired by Italian al fresco dining and its relaxed, social atmosphere of good food, good friends and good drinks.

Eighteen years later, Morris East has become a Halifax institution—two locations, national television features on "You Gotta Eat Here," third place at the International Pizza Expo in Las Vegas, and countless "Best Pizza" awards. She's been nominated three times for the RBC Canadian Woman Entrepreneur Award and was a 2012 Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the Year finalist.

But when the pandemic shut her dining room doors, Jennie didn't retreat—she reinvented. A mother of two boys (ages nine and six), partner to Simon, and now beverage entrepreneur, she brings the same obsessive attention to detail to every Sprizzi can that she brought to every pizza that left her wood-fired oven.

"I live and breathe making quality delicious products that bring people together," Jennie says. "That's what drives me—creating things that join people on their awesome life adventures."

Dear Friends,

When my restaurant doors closed in March 2020, I was terrified. Not just of losing my business, but of losing my purpose—the daily joy of bringing people together over delicious food and drinks. But here's what I learned: resilience isn't about bouncing back. It's about bouncing forward.

Simon and I created Sprizzi because we were tired of compromises. Tired of artificial flavors masquerading as "craft." Tired of drinks that promise refreshment but deliver regret. We wanted to make something we'd be proud to serve at Morris East, something worthy of the wood-fired pizzas and carefully curated wine lists we've spent two decades perfecting.

Every can of Sprizzi represents our commitment to you: real lemon juice, premium spirits, local ingredients whenever possible, and absolutely zero shortcuts. When you crack open a Limonata, you're not just drinking a cocktail—you're supporting local manufacturing, Nova Scotia fruit growers, and two people who refuse to settle for "good enough."

We make Sprizzi the same way I make pizza: with obsessive attention to ingredients, respect for craft, and genuine love for bringing people together. Whether you're at a soccer stadium with 10,000 fans, camping in the wilderness, or simply enjoying brunch with friends, we're honored to be part of your story.

Thank you for supporting local. Thank you for valuing quality. Thank you for living the spritz life with us.

Here's to adventures—in cans and in life. 🥂

With gratitude and refreshment,

Jennie Dobbs
Co-Founder, Sprizzi
