Quench Your Thirst With 2025’s Biggest Drink Trends

Savory Cocktails

Salty, spicy, and tangy drinks will be huge in 2025. “For a long time, we have been used to umami being used to describe food, but in recent times, bartenders have used savory ingredients to bring umami to drinks,” says Jonathan Stanyard, 2024 US World Class Bartender of the Year. “It opens up many opportunities for unexpected flavor pairings and new cocktail recipes.”

Adding ingredients like tomatoes, mushrooms, beets, and even cheese “can create the ultimate savory experience,” he adds. Not to mention, Pinterest predicted Pickle Margaritas to take off next year in their 2025 Trend Report, so expect to see the fermented fruit (yes, fruit!) everywhere next year.

Coffee at Home

Coffee will never go out of style, but you might notice certain java-inspired trends take over every year.

“The fourth wave of coffee has arrived, and it’s nothing like we’ve seen before,” says Mike Van Houten, Head of Consumer & Marketplace Insights at Nestlé USA. “Today, consumers are focused on a more personalized cup, increasingly intrigued by new, exciting textures and flavors that rebel against the purist brews of the past. In this new wave, coffee is increasingly considered a ‘little treat,’ especially among Gen-Z who drink it throughout the day as an affordable indulgence.”

Van Houten adds, “in 2025, we’ll see brands deliver products that encourage at-home coffee play and personalization, with a focus on different textures and added taste like cold foam and floral flavors.”

Non-Alcoholic Canned Cocktails & Wines

In the non-alcoholic beverage space, wines are having their moment.

“We are seeing continued momentum in all types of non-alcoholic wine,” says Sean Goldsmith, CEO and co-founder of The Zero Proof. ” Especially good sparkling wines and premium reds. The market is still looking for the best non-alcoholic reds.”

Goldsmith also sees a rise in the popularity of canned non-alcoholic cocktails, explaining that they’re “drinks that people can open and enjoy.”

Aside from non-alcoholic wines and canned cocktails, we can also expect to see new ingredients take the spotlight next year. “Right now, there’s a lot of noise around Delta 9 THC,” he explains. “You’re seeing it show up in more types of beverages. Our category is still growing because people are looking to consume less alcohol. And some of those folks still want a buzz, which Delta 9 is providing.”

Functional Beverages

You’ve probably seen adaptogenic beverages in the drink aisle of your health food store, and they’re there to stay. Brands are including adaptogenic ingredients like reishi mushrooms, ginseng, and licorice root in their drinks to address concerns like stress, fatigue, and brain fog.

“Gen Z has given health a new meaning, focusing on a lifestyle that goes beyond exercise and mindful eating,” Van Houten says. “Consumers are taking their health into their own hands, on their own terms, to curate personalized wellness practices that meet their needs. In 2025, brands will lean in to deliver ‘better-for you’ goods with functional benefits, serving consumers on their wellness journey, wherever that may take them.”
