Wotcha!
It’s good to be back after a few weeks away from writing. Thirty-four days is a long time though in the world of adult non-alcoholic drinks … and no less than 28 (!) new drinks have been launched since you last heard from me.
So this first week back, I’m just going to focus on these new drinks because there are some cracking ones for you to explore.
Next week, I’m excited to bring you a mini-dive into a women-owned spirit company, and an extensive Oktoberfest beer list plus of course, all the new drink news.
Oh, before we get into the new drinks, please check out this week’s sponsor—1440 Media. I’ve been subscribed to their daily newsletter for three or four years.
