Soft & Energy Drink Development

I’m bringing a new non-alcoholic beverage range to life—sparkling soft drinks alongside punchy energy drinks—and need expert help turning the concept into a shelf-ready reality.

What I already have
• Core flavor ideas and a draft brand story
• Market positioning for mainstream retail and convenience channels

What still needs doing
• Formulation refinement that balances taste, stability, cost, and regulatory compliance
• Guidance on ingredient sourcing, sweetener choices, and preservative strategy
• Scaled batch sheets and pilot-plant trial support
• Nutrition panel, ingredient list, and shelf-life documentation that meets FDA/EFSA standards
• Eye-catching packaging and label artwork for both drink lines (editable files required)
• A concise production brief for co-packers, including quality-control checkpoints

Acceptance criteria
• Each recipe must pass a 90-day accelerated shelf-life test without sensory degradation
• All labels must clear third-party regulatory review in the target market
• Final files delivered in editable formats (e.g., Genesis R&D export, Illustrator, PDF)

If your portfolio includes successful soft drink or energy drink launches and you’re comfortable working with tools such as BevTech, Genesis R&D, or similar, I’d love to see your approach and timeline.
