As consumers dial down the alcohol, could hop-flavoured water break new ground? - NPD trends
2018-09-17 17:16:00| Daily beverage news and comment - from just-drinks.com
The secret to a great beer often comes down to the quality of the hops that are used to make it. Depending upon the variety, hops can add floral, fruity, bitter, grassy, flowery, spicy or earthy notes to beer. But, why should hops be limited to beer?

How RTD coffee could be the next functional drink boom area - NPD trends
2018-08-22 19:08:00| Daily beverage news and comment - from just-drinks.com
Coffee has been a functional drink probably for as long as it has been in existence, thanks to its natural caffeine content, which has made it a beloved source of energy in the morning. But, coffee has never been much of a player in the functional beverage market partly because its own health status has been questioned over the years.

Why is kombucha gaining traction with big drinks companies? - NPD trends
2018-06-19 11:59:00| Daily beverage news and comment - from just-drinks.com
These are changing times for kombucha. Molson Coors' acquisition of California-based Clearly Kombucha earlier this month, following PepsiCo's 2016 purchase of kombucha and vinegar tonics producer KeVita and Suja's (partly owned by Coca-Cola) recent kombucha extension show that the segment is in the process of graduating from niche status to a broader market sufficient in size and scope to interest the beverage giants. This being the case, the odds on 2018 marking a breakout year for kombucha are shortening.
