Global Drinks Intel Magazine – July/August 2025

In the July/August issue of Global Drinks Intel magazine:

• Summer is here, although maybe not so much in global travel retail, where the seasonality-of-consumption opportunity remains inconsistently realised at best
• As consumer confidence improves and inflation begins to ease, we consider how – and where – new opportunities are opening up within the on-premise channel across Europe
• Our regular country analysis visits the UK, a strategic market with pockets of dynamic growth, but not without its regulatory burdens, high taxes and cost-of-living crisis
• On the category front, there are up-to-date considerations of what’s shaping the aperitif and spritz-serve arenas, as well as the latest on RTDs
• We feature a raft of interviews, including with Rabobank’s VP of beverage research, Bourcard Nesin, the co-founder of Tenzing Natural Energy, Huib van Bockel, and the co-founder of Hard Cut Vodka, actor Dolph Lundgren

All this, plus our regular round-up of the latest alcohol news stories and brand owner ESG activities, as well as the most recent product launches in spirits, backed by commentary from drinks marketing expert Chris Tyas and on-premise data whizz Charlie Mitchell.
