Seltzer, Sparkling, Still and Infused Water

Water

Many consumers are seeking a healthy alternative to sugary beverages, and a recent poll by IBWA found that 72% of Americans say that still or sparkling water is their most preferred non-alcoholic beverage.  Bottled water is the #1 packaged beverage in the US, a $12.4 billion dollar industry, with an additional $3 billion in revenue from seltzer, sparkling, and mineral water.  As more companies look for a share in this massive market, new ideas and opportunities to grow are always available.  

Unique water beverages are popping up all of the time, including “Black Water” that contains Fulvic Acid, the infamous “Asparagus Water” that was selling for a whopping $6 a bottle, and “Hyper-Oxygenated Water,” pumped full with extra oxygen.  While these products don’t seem to live up to the hype, other trends appear to be sticking around.

Seltzers and hard seltzers continue to be one of the hottest trends in the beverage industry in 2020.  And of course, flavored waters and flavored seltzers are always a favorite of consumers looking for a more satisfying or exciting option to their favorite beverage, or as a light and refreshing beverage during those hot summer months.  Northwestern Extract Company has the perfect flavors for you to launch a great tasting still or sparkling water beverage!
