In this episode…The increasing consciousness about health and wellness has led to a significant surge in demand for nonalcoholic beverages. Traditional alcoholic drinks often leave people with hangovers and other adverse side effects, pushing many individuals to look for a healthier alternative. In response, the nonalcoholic beverage industry is rapidly evolving to meet this demand. Industry stalwarts Kristin Patrick and Andrea Marley Simpson are leading the charge at the forefront of this movement.
Kristin and Andrea believe having a fun and social night out is possible without compromising your health. They suggest that zero-proof drinks are a fantastic option for anyone who wants to enjoy a delicious beverage without experiencing any of the adverse side effects of alcohol. Although the drinks are nonalcoholic, they have flavors that mimic traditional alcoholic beverages. Kristin and Andrea have expanded their brand of alcohol-free beverages and are spearheading a movement towards a more health-conscious approach to drinking that's gaining traction among consumers who prioritize their well-being.
