“When your brain is clear, your muscle movements become more precise during exercise or any physical activity. When your muscles have ample energy, they perform better which may support muscle endurance and strength. Supporting your body’s natural healing processes may aid in muscle repair and recovery. By managing stress, it indirectly supports muscle recovery. Stress reduction is crucial for overall well-being, including muscle health. A well-functioning gut is essential for nutrient absorption, immune function, and overall vitality. Prebiotics encourage the growth of beneficial gut bacteria, promoting overall wellness,” said Rouse.

The energy drink market, traditionally associated with a core group of highly engaged younger male consumers, is undergoing a fascinating transformation. Recent data from Innova Market Insights reveals that 83% of women aged 18-34 have consumed energy drinks in the past three months¹. This surge in engagement among younger female consumers is a key driver behind the category’s robust growth. In fact, it’s the younger women who are propelling the rise of category disruptors like AVVIKA.
According to Mintel, nearly half of consumers have made energy drinks a part of their weekly routines, indicating a strong foundation for expanding usage occasions². Offering innovative flavors, formats, and better-for-you ingredients are attracting both loyal and new consumers.
Doug Resh, chief marketing officer for Dyverg Brands, LLC says “Younger women, discerning and health-conscious, have emerged as pivotal consumers of sugar-free energy drinks. Their preference? Beverages that not only invigorate but also carry strong Better-For-You (BFY) claims. For AVVIKA, this focus on health and wellness isn’t just a trend; it’s a guiding principle woven into our brand’s DNA. As we launch our innovative caffeine free energy drink, we recognize that our marketing strategy must echo this commitment, resonating with the mindful choices of our audience.
