Diageo PLC uncorked an agreement to acquire Stirrings L.L.C., a Fall River, Mass.-based company that sells bottled mixers for cocktail drinks.
The companies did not disclose financial terms of the agreement.
Stirrings took home seven awards at an annual spirits competition sponsored in February by the Beverage Testing Institute.
Diageo sells a wide range of spirits, wine and beer. The company is based in London and has its North American headquarters in Norwalk.
Separately, Diageo is cutting 100 jobs in Ireland, where its Guinness breweries are located.
