FREE COURSE: OVERCOMING THE HURDLES
Welcome to the latest episode of the Low No Drinker Podcast! Today, we're diving into a topic that baffles many: why do alcohol-free and low/no-&-light drinks cost as much as their boozy counterparts? You might be surprised to learn that there are several compelling reasons behind these high prices.
In this episode, I uncover the five biggest factors that drive up the cost of your favourite alcohol-free beverages. From the surprising role of alcohol as a natural preservative to the complex processes required to maintain flavour without it, there’s a lot more to these drinks than meets the eye. We’ll also explore the challenges small producers face in a market dominated by big brands with deep pockets.
I’ll be sharing insights from industry leaders like David Hodgson (Zeno Wines) & Roger Warner (Only with Love Brewery), who shed light on the technical hurdles and financial realities of producing top-notch non-alcoholic drinks. Plus, I’ll reveal the one fact about alcohol production that shocks most people.
