[Good Wolf’s](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/good-dirt) canned drinks are a convenient source of probiotics, electrolytes and adaptogens, and they are both flavorful and beneficial for the gut. These non-alcoholic sparkling drinks with no added sugar help to support recovery, stress reduction and brain balance in the form of delicious flavors like Piña Colada, Marionberry and Hibiscus Bloom.

Good Wolf positions its fermented, non-alcoholic, [probiotic-packed drinks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/probioticinfused-sparkling-beverage) as better-for-you alternatives to sodas, flavored sparkling waters and sugary sports drinks. [Water kefir](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fizzy-probiotic-drinks) is the base of the brand’s Probiotic Refreshers, and it also appeals to consumers who are looking for similar benefits to kombucha but without the harsh, tangy or sour flavor or vinegary aroma.

The probiotic tonic brand recently relaunched under new ownership and its new look conveys more of its adaptogenic benefits.
