Why Drink Non-Alcoholic?
The non-alcoholic industry has seen significant growth in recent years, fueled by a focus on health and wellness. Non-alcoholic drinks used to be limited to sodas, juices, and 'mocktails' such as a shirly temple. Today's market offers a range of high-end, complex alternatives to alcohol, but with the same experiece and flavours. Non-alcoholic drinks are often lower in calories, and free from the negative effects of alcohol, which helps maintain a more balanced lifestyle.
According to NeilsonIQ, in 2023, off premise non-alcoholic sales reached $510M in the US, an increase of over 31% from the year prior. While non-alcoholic drinks used to centre around key dates such as "Dry Jan", many consumers are sticking with their decision to reduce their drinking, or stop completely. In fact, according to International Wine and Spirits Record, 78% of consumers of non-alcoholic drinks still consume full strength alcoholic drinks. This mindful drinking movement encourages people to be more aware of their alcohol consumption, and its impact on their lives. This trend is especially true among younger generations who are more likely to prioritize mental health.
This increase in demand has allowed the availability of high-quality non-alcoholic drinks to expand, allowing consumers to make a choice on when, and where they want to drink, and think twice on if they need to drink in every social situation. Global brands have seen the shift in the market, and the need to release their own non-alcoholic alternatives, such as Captain Morgan 0.0. These brands have invested heavily in their non-alcoholic portfolios, raising the standards that we expect from non-alcoholic drinks.
