Functional Effervescent Mushroom Drinks

These Water Junkie Drinks Come in Three Varieties

These new Water Junkie drinks have been debuted by the UK-based brand as a series of effervescent, functional refreshments crafted with taste and wellness benefits to catch the attention of health-minded consumers. The drinks come in three varieties including Wide Awake, Feel Alive and Dream, which are formulated with lion's mane, reishi and chana mushrooms, respectively. The drinks are also enhanced with additional vitamins and minerals with flavors that are appealing thanks to their ability to effectively mask unwanted tasting notes.

Founder Queenie Porter commented on the new Water Junkie drinks saying, "At Water Junkie, we believe functional ingredients should feel both trusted and accessible. Functional mushrooms have been used for centuries, but the category has become increasingly complex for consumers."
