‍In today’s crowded market, a great-tasting beverage is your most powerful competitive advantage. Our development program helps you create just that—a functional or mainstream beverage that tastes great AND meets all regulatory and retail standards. Here is how the program works.

‍

‍YOUR IDEA: It all starts with your concept. You bring us your vision; we build from there.

‍

‍FUNCTIONAL INGREDIENTS: You may already know some or all of the functional ingredients for the beverage. But if not, our Scientific Director will recommend evidence-based options aligned with your goals.

‍FLAVOR: We then collaborate with you to define the flavor profile. Our Flavor Master will work with you until you are fully satisfied with the taste.  

‍PROCESS AUTHORITY LETTER: Our Quality Department then submits the manufacturing process for your beverage to our Process Authority and receives back a Process Authority Letter. This is a necessary step for us to make any beverage.

‍FDA PROCESS APPROVAL: Using the PA Letter, we register and approve your process with the FDA. This is mandatory before your beverage can be commercialized.

‍PRODUCTION BATCH: We then produce a commercial batch so you can launch, sample, sell, or pitch to retailers:
    2oz–2.5oz shots: approximately 2,000 bottles
    8oz–32oz beverages: approximately 1,000 bottles

‍MASTER FORMULATION: Finally, we prepare your Master Formulation Package—a complete Master Manufacturing Record containing your formula, ingredient list, components, supplier contacts, and step-by-step manufacturing instructions. This package is designed so any qualified manufacturer with the proper equipment can reproduce your beverage. It is your intellectual property.
