Item 5.03                      Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.

Item 8.01                      Other Events.


On April 27, 2010, Drinks Americas Holdings, Ltd., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) filed a Certificate of Amendment (the “Amendment”) to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation to effect a 1-for-250 reverse split of the Company’s common stock.  The reverse stock split became effective on and was announced by Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) on December 23, 2011.  This action followed stockholder approval by written consent of the majority of the stockholders taken without a meeting on September 29, 2011, which approval granted authority to the Company’s Board of Directors to effect a reverse stock split of the Company’s authorized, issued and outstanding common stock.

On December 27, 2011, the effective date determined by FINRA, every 250 shares of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock were combined into one share of common stock. The Company did not issue any fractional shares in connection with the reverse stock split.  Stockholders of record who otherwise would have been entitled to receive fractional shares will be entitled, upon surrender to our transfer agent of certificates representing such shares, an additional full share of common stock in lieu thereof.

On December 27, 2011, to indicate the reverse stock split, the OTCBB appended a “D” to the Company’s trading symbol and for a period of 20 trading days the Company’s common stock will be reported under the symbol “DKAMD.”  After the 20 trading days, the Company’s trading symbol will revert to “DKAM.”  The new CUSIP number for the Company’s common stock is 26205U309.

Additional information about the reverse stock split is available in the Company’s definitive information statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 24, 2011.

A copy of the Amendment effecting the reverse stock split is attached hereto as Exhibit 3.1.
