Energy drinks—the “bad boys” of the beverage world—have become a driving force behind a resurgence in the beverage market, according to market research publisher Packaged Facts.
Sales of energy drinks—along with the performance of ready-to-drink (RTD) teas and sports drinks—have helped functional and natural RTD beverage market grow to $23 billion.
Packaged Facts’ “Functional and Natural Ready-to-Drink Beverages in the U.S.” reveals that the sales growth of energy drinks isn’t conjured up by counterculture or cool-hunting marketing, but instead is due to offering consumers a distinctive benefit that they want and need (i.e., more energy).
