Bringing it all together in Beverages

A world of opportunity awaits in the beverage segment – especially for manufacturers able to combine and deliver the latest sensory and functional benefits needed to meet changing consumer needs: from tantalizing taste with less sugar, to nutritional fortification and captivating color.

That’s why we’re here to help you achieve all this and more with an extensive family of ingredients and solutions that bring it all together - and help push your beverages beyond the boundaries. Here’s how. 

Fuller flavor, tantalizing taste

It all starts with taste: and our flavors bring a whole new world of tonalities to instant drink mixes - including softer, smoother, lighter, more refreshing elements that are tough to replicate using artificial flavors.

You can choose from on-trend flavors like peach; citrus, berry and tropical fruit flavors; or brown-note flavors like mint, coffee, tea, caramel and chocolate. We can even mask undesired flavors. Whatever the case, it’s all steeped in a deep understanding of consumer preferences - and supported by our world-class flavorists and development tools.

More sweetness, less sugar

We know that consumers want the best of both worlds: sweetness without the sugar. Here our extensive sugar reduction toolbox enables your beverages to hit the right note, not just in removing sugar, but also restoring the sensory benefits that result from that removal.  

Our toolbox includes a broad range of natural sweeteners, sugar-reducing ingredients and sweetness modulation flavors that can be combined holistically to remove up to 100% of sugar from your beverage formulations. And it’s supported by applications experts who have years of expertise in combining these ingredients.

Sourced from a selection of 1,400 premium functional ingredients—including vitamins, minerals, amino acids, nucleotides, nutraceuticals, prebiotics, fibers, and botanicals—our blends are designed to meet consumers' specific needs.

Based on the health claims you aim to highlight, our experts develop an optimized, efficient, and homogenous premix tailored for your product to target the right audience. Plus, you’ll benefit from our proven expertise across science, regulatory guidance, and claims support.

Captivating color

We know that color perception often drives flavor expectation in beverages. Which is why our experts will support you with our broad portfolio of non-artificial, vibrant - and highly stable - coloration solutions.

Our carotenoids range has an established, positive health association with consumers and deliver a delightful color palate from vibrant red, to orange and yellow hues. But they also enable you to take your beverages beyond the rainbow while replacing artificial ingredients like azo dyes.

The perfect blend

Now imagine being able to bring all these functional and sensory benefits together to create beverages that taste as good as they look; and that make consumers feel good about themselves – with less sugar and a higher nutritional profile.

With the lines increasingly blurring in the beverages, the combination of our ingredient solutions can bring a whole new dimension to your products; perhaps even opening up entirely new categories. Energizing instant drink mix anyone?
