Sydney-based non-alcoholic beverage supplier Cute Drinks has introduced an ‘ingestible beauty drink’ to the market with the launch of Pretty Hot Margarita.
Packed with collagen peptides, oral hyaluronic acid, antioxidants and vitamins, the non-alcoholic cocktail uses a blend of natural ingredients. Yvette Symon, Founder of Cute Drinks, says the new drink is designed to enhance radiant skin and overall wellness.
“We are excited to introduce Pretty Hot Margarita to the market. This drink is a game changer and will shake up the non-alc functional space within the beverage industry and will redefine beauty routines by nourishing the body from within. We are confident that Pretty Hot Margarita will be a valuable addition to our customers’ wellness journeys.”
Formerly a food scientist and ex-brewer for Philter and Wayward/Batch Brewing, Symon has worked in a range of roles in both alcoholic and non-alcoholic development, from quality and NPD to lab, brewing and packaging management. With these expertise, she was inspired to launch Cute Drinks as a way of incorporating scientifically-backed ingredients into beverages designed for health-conscious consumers.
“Seeing a gap in the non-alc market while brewing non-alc drinks at Wayward/Batch Brewing, Hop Water and Aqua Lupa, it made me question what would I want to see in a non-alc functional beverage. 2024 the product was developed, company made and launched by Christmas,” she explained.
Cute Drinks’ first product, Pretty Hot Margarita, is available now in 330ml cans and 16-can cases, described as “a mix of tongue tingling sudachi fruit, a spicy slap of capsicum and peppercorns for heat, with salty seaweed notes to finish”.
Pretty Hot Margarita is distributed by Paramount Liquor and is already available in venues and bottle shops such as Bob Hawkes Beer and Leisure Centre, Thirstville Marrickville, Bondi Beach Cellars, HP Bowlo, Young St Hotel Newcastle and more.
