 Restraints/Challenges

• Health and Wellness Trends

Health and wellness trends significantly impact the frozen cocktail market, prompting consumers to seek lighter, natural, and nutritionally conscious options. This includes preferences for lower-calorie, natural ingredient-based cocktails and functional ingredients with perceived health benefits. Frozen cocktails can often have a high alcohol content, especially if they're made with multiple types of liquor or served in large sizes. Excessive alcohol consumption can lead to impaired judgment, coordination, and cognitive function. Many frozen cocktails are high in sugar and calories due to the added mixers and syrups. Consuming too many high-calorie drinks can contribute to weight gain and other health issues such as diabetes and heart disease. Alcohol is a diuretic, meaning it causes your body to lose fluids, which can lead to dehydration if not properly countered by drinking water. Frozen cocktails may mask the taste of alcohol, leading people to consume more than they would with other types of drinks, thereby increasing the risk of dehydration. While not as serious as other concerns, brain freeze (or "ice cream headache") can be a temporary discomfort experienced when consuming frozen drinks too quickly.
