About Me - My Biography

Urban Thirst was founded by Kate O’Leary in 2004, after successful careers as a corporate finance lawyer in New York and a management consultant with McKinsey & Company. It was borne out of her frustrations with the mess and hassle of making cocktails according to their traditional recipes.

Kate wanted to be able to replicate the taste and quality of bar-made cocktails easily and cost effectively at home.

With innovative packaging and popular flavours, Urban Thirst is a leading brand in all major liquor chains in Australia and New Zealand.
