Welcome Note
Hello hello y’all!
Did you know that 45% of Gen Z have never consumed alcohol? They’re choosing healthier, non-alcoholic options instead. It’s not just about cutting out alcohol completely but being more intentional with what we drink.
The non-alcoholic beverage market is booming, with a projected growth rate of 7.4% from 2024 to 2030. But there’s more to it – people are loving functional beverages with THC, CBD, adaptogens, and nootropics, which offer benefits like improved focus and relaxation.
I truly believe that soon, these adaptogenic and nootropic drinks will be as common in social settings as beer and wine. Imagine matching your drink to your mood or the occasion, getting both pleasure and wellness in one go. This movement towards diverse beverage options is all about having the freedom to choose what fits your vibe for the day.
And this is exactly why this newsletter exists – to destigmatize these amazing drinks and showcase how they can seamlessly fit into your life.
As always, if you know anyone doing cool shit in the industry, please shoot me an email or fill out this form.
And with that, let’s get into it!
