CHARLESTON, S.C.— Physician Made Beverages has announced a new partnership with the South Carolina Research Authority (SCRA). Chartered in 1983 by the State of South Carolina as a public, non-profit corporation, SCRA fuels job creation and grows South Carolina’s innovation economy.

Shine Water is a wellness and sport beverage infused with Vitamin D3 and key electrolytes which contains zero sugar and low calories. Each ingredient is carefully selected based on nutritional science, and delivered in meaningful amounts in a sporty BPA free bottle. Shine was developed by Phillip Davis, MD, a former FDA physician and Greenville, South Carolina native who attended the University of SC (1997 alumnus) and earned his medical degree at MUSC in Charleston (class of 2004). Currently the drink comes in three tasty flavors (Strawberry Lemon, Poma-Grape and Kiwi Cucumber) and is sold at 75 locations throughout the Southeast with its headquarters in Charleston. The company is planning multiple new retail launches, expansion of online sales and new products for the year ahead.
