                             STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT

     THIS AGREEMENT dated as of the 25th day of April, 1996, (the "Grant Date")
is made and entered into by and between Bev-Tyme, Inc., a Delaware corporation
with its principal offices located at 134 Morgan Avenue, Brooklyn, New York (the
"Company"), and Mel Feldman (the "Optionee").

                              W I T N E S S E T H:

     WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of the Company has approved the granting to
the Optionee of the option to purchase certain shares of the Company's Series C
Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $.0001 per share (" Series C Preferred
Stock"); and

     WHEREAS, the Optionee desires to accept the grant of such option, subject
to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

     NOW, THEREFORE, the Company and the Optionee hereby agree as follows:

     Section 1. Grant of Option; Vesting. Subject to the provisions of this
Agreement, the Company hereby grants to the Optionee an option (the "Option") to
purchase from the Company a total of One Hundred Thousand (100,000) shares of
the Company's Series C Preferred Stock (the "Option Shares") at an exercise
price of $1.50 per share (the "Exercise Price"). During the eighteen (18) month
period commencing on July 1, 1996, one sixth of the Initial Option Shares (or
16,666 shares) shall vest in the optionee on the first day of each calendar
quarter, the final vesting date to be October 1, 1997. Optionee agrees to use
its best efforts to sell the Option Shares in a timely manner at the best price
and on the best terms available to Optionee. The Company agrees to use its best
efforts to register for sale to the public the Option Shares with the

Securities and Exchange Commission.

     Section 2. Termination of Options. To the extent not exercised, the Option
shall terminate on July 1, 2000 (the "Termination Date").

     Section 3. Corporate Events. In the event of a proposed liquidation of the
Company, a proposed sale of all or substantially all of its assets or its Common
Stock, a proposed merger or consolidation, or a proposed separation or
reorganization, the Board of Directors may declare that the Option shall
terminate as of a date to be fixed by the Board of Directors; provided however,
that not less than thirty (30) days preceding the date of such termination, the
Optionee may exercise the Option in whole or in part and the Company represents
that such Options shall be exercisable. However, nothing set forth herein shall
(i) extend the term set for purchasing the Option Shares or (ii) give the
Optionee any rights or privileges as a stockholder of the Company prior to
Optionee's exercise of any of the Option Shares.

     Section 4. Exercise of Option. The Option may be exercised in whole or in
part in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement by the Optionee's

tendering the Exercise Price (or a proportionate part thereof if the Option is
partially exercised) in immediately available funds or other consideration
reasonably acceptable to the Board of Directors of the Company. The Company
shall cooperate to the extent reasonably possible with the Optionee in an
exercise pursuant to which all or part of the Optionee Shares will be sold
simultaneously with the exercise of this Option with the broker-dealer
participating in such sale being irrevocably instructed to remit the proceeds
from the exercise of the Option to the Company upon settlement of the sale of
the underlying Option Shares.

     The Optionee may exercise part or all of the Option by tender to the
Company of a written notice of exercise together with advice of the delivery of
an order to a broker to sell part

                                        2

or all of the Option Shares, subject to such exercise notice and an irrevocable
order to such broker to deliver to the Company (or its transfer agent)
sufficient proceeds from the sale of such Option Shares to pay the exercise
price and any withholding taxes. All documentation and procedures to be followed
in connection with such a "cashless exercise" shall be approved in advance by
the Company, which approval shall be expeditiously provided and not unreasonably
withheld or delayed.

     Section 5. Shares Certificates. Upon receipt of payment in full of the
Exercise Price, and after taking such steps as it deems necessary to satisfy any
withholding tax obligations imposed upon it by any level of government, the
Company will cause one or more stock certificates evidencing the Optionee's
ownership of the Option Shares so purchased by the Optionee to be issued to the
Optionee.

     Section 6. Restrictions. The Option and the Option Shares have not been
registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"). Optionee
understands that, unless registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission
for sale to the public, all Option Shares acquired upon the exercise of the
Option shall be "restricted securities" as that term is defined in Rule 144
promulgated under the Act. The certificate representing the Option Shares shall
bear an appropriate legend restricting their transfer. Such Option Shares cannot
be sold, transferred, assigned or otherwise hypothecated without registration
under the Act or unless a valid exemption from registration is then available
under applicable federal and state securities laws and the Optionee has
furnished the Company with an opinion of counsel satisfactory in form and
substance to the Company's counsel that such registration is not required.

     Section 7. Default of Optionee. Should the Optionee at any time fail to pay
the Exercise Price in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Option
granted hereunder shall be null 

                                        3

and void. The provision shall be in addition and not in lieu of any other
remedies which the Company may have at law and/or in equity.

     Section 8. Share Adjustments. If there is any change in the number of
shares of Common Stock on account of the declaration of stock dividends,
recapitalization resulting in stock splits, or combinations or exchanges of
shares of Common Stock, or otherwise, the number of Option Shares available for
purchase by the exercise of the Option, and the Exercise Price, shall be
proportionately adjusted by the Company.

     Section 9. Miscellaneous Provisions.

     (a) Notices. Unless otherwise specifically provided herein, all notices to
be given hereunder shall be in writing and sent to the parties by certified
mail, return receipt requested, which shall be addressed to each party's

notice given in accordance with this Section and, except as otherwise provided
in this Agreement, shall be effective when deposited in the United States mail
properly addressed and postage prepaid. If such notice is sent other than by the
United States mail, such notice shall be effective when actually received by the
party being noticed.

     (b) Assignment. This Agreement and the rights granted hereunder may not be
assigned in whole or in part by Optionee except by will or the laws of descent
and distribution, and the Option is exercisable during Optionee's lifetime only
by the Optionee. This Agreement may be assigned by the Company without the
consent of the Optionee.

     (c) Further Assurances. Both parties hereto shall execute and deliver such
other instruments and do such other acts as may be necessary to carry out the
intent and purposes of this Agreement.

any covenant, promise or undertaking, or any section, subsection, paragraph,
