  South Beach Beverage Company, Inc.
South Beach Beverage Company, Inc. is a leading marketer of noncarbonated juice and tea-based drinks.
South Beach had by now junked all but two of its original flavors, Orange Elixir and Cranberry-Grapefruit Elixir, and the single lizard logo on labels had become a pair of lizards entwined in "yin-yang" complementarity, courtesy of Bello's design student daughter.
South Beach was now budgeting $9 million per year for radio ads and $3 million for sampling vehicles, athletic sponsorships including the Major League Lacrosse circuit, and other events including the Warped music tour.

South Beach further raises points for reversal, including a contention that Harris Brands was not entitled to future lost profits on its promissory estoppel claim and that the circuit court erred in its rulings relating to taxation of any jury award and the allocation of fixed expenses against lost profits.
South Beach also urges that the theory of promissory estoppel, which was a second basis for the judgment, is not supported by substantial evidence, and, moreover, damages for lost profits are not appropriate for a promissory estoppel claim.
South Beach finally contends that Harris Brands' expert witness, Cheryl Shuffield, was permitted to submit two projections for lost profits to the jury and that those two projections failed to deduct the proportionate share of fixed overhead costs.
