The summer months are upon us—although, in some parts of the world, they never left—and this list of refreshing beverage creations can give you a sense of what thirst-quenching products are taking the spotlight this year.
For those looking for a caffeine pick-me-up, Bandida dominates with its dairy-free Horchata Cold Brew, offering a playful take on the beverage with refreshing notes of cinnamon and vanilla. Other brands have taken a strong holistic approach to their offerings, taking into consideration of the turbulent climate of the ongoing global pandemic: zenify calls attention to its stress-relief drink which features a proprietary blend of L-theanine, GABA, and glycine that's clinically shown to boost alpha waves in the brain, along with serotonin and dopamine.
This list of refreshing beverage creations boasts, of course, many alcoholic options, as well. One of the more innovative ones is offered as a DIY (and in solid form). The ultra-premium Empress 1908 Gin has published three mouth-watering, aesthetically pleasing, easy-to-follow recipes that turn its color-changing liquid into cocktail popsicles.
