'Beverages in the New Normal' situates some of Trend Hunter's most exciting alcohol-related insights, such as 'Vegan Alcohol,' 'Booze Bakery,' and 'Unlikely Pairing' within a post-pandemic context. In doing so, it highlights two key shifts in consumer sensibilities that, so far, have greatly impacted the alcohol industry in 2022. These include the emergence of post-pandemic booze preferences and Gen Z's unexpected disinterest in traditional alcohol formats.
As consumers recover from the pandemic, many of the habits, hobbies, preferences, and values that they developed while locked down will remain integral to their lives. Because of this, industries are working hard to develop products, services, and messaging that cater to these changes. Within the alcohol space, a notable example of this is seen in Trend Hunter's 'Alcohol Wellness' insight, which focuses on the way emerging alcohol brands have aligned themselves with the concepts and values associated with the health and wellness movement -- a movement that was widely embraced amid the pandemic.
