BREWING FOR BETTER

At Remedy, we’re committed to a greater cause – a mission to brew for better, from crafting our drinks with better taste and higher quality to promoting better health for our customers. Our commitment to ‘better’ doesn't stop there, it extends beyond the glass and can and into the world we all share. We believe in making choices that are not only better for our customers but also better for this planet we call home. Discover how we’re reducing our environmental footprint, supporting local communities and fostering a brighter, more sustainable future, one drink at a time.

  • Since day one, we’ve been committed to making the highest quality bevvies that are better for you, guilt-free and taste absolutely bangin’.

  • People are at the core of what we do - from the awesome people who work in our business to the broader community. 

  • We know that how we make our drinks and where we make them is important. Each year we’re striving to minimise our impact.

330ml Glass light weight project

We’ve light weighted the glass packaging of our 330ml bottles to be more sustainable. This change, while small, will have a big impact by allowing us to use fewer raw materials while maintaining the same amount of liquid in our bevvies.

Glass light weighting refers to the process of reducing the weight of our glass bottles while maintaining the structural integrity (AKA our bottles are now a little bit shorter!). By changing to lighter glass bottles, we will reduce our annual consumption of raw glass materials by a whopping 225 tonnes, as well as saving energy during production. Additionally, reducing glass weight leads to a decrease in the amount of cardboard needed for our carton packaging, contributing to a more eco-friendly packaging solution across the board.

ALL NATURAL, NO SUGAR
When Sarah and Emmet started Remedy, they wanted to do something good. They knew that healthy didn’t have to be boring – healthy could be tasty. Extraordinary even. They believed we all deserved to know that, too. Since day one, Remedy has been committed to making drinks that are truly better for you. ALL NATURAL INGREDIENTS Our drinks have always been 100% natural, using only the best quality ingredients. We never use anything artificial (no artificial colours, flavours, or sweeteners can be found here!). The natural flavours we use are derived from plant sources and, when mixed and combined, give a specific flavour profile (such as caramel or cola). NO SUGAR, FOR REAL! Whilst we all agree it is impossible to cut sugar from your diet altogether and a little sugar in our diets is fine, it is well established that too much sugar isn’t good for you. According to the Cancer Council, the consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages, including soft drinks, is associated with a range of serious health issues. We’re proud to offer up healthier alternatives with no sugar that are still damn tasty! Instead of using sugar in our drinks, we add a touch of organic stevia and organic erythritol (fermented glucose). This adds sweetness and balances out the flavours (especially after we naturally brew out all the sugar used in the fermentation process of our kombucha). Both the stevia and erythritol we use are 100% natural. Stevia is a plant from the chrysanthemum family, which grows in Paraguay and Brazil. It contains no fructose yet is 300 times sweeter than sugar. Erythritol, aka fermented glucose, is a naturally occurring nectar commonly found in pears, watermelons, grapes and other fermented products like wine, cheese and soy sauce. Both stevia and erythritol have been used as natural sweeteners in many parts of the world for hundreds of years. Pretty nifty, we reckon!
TRULY BETTER FOR YOU
Remedy drinks are truly better for you, and you can find the lowdown on all the ingredients that make our drinks so great over on our ingredients page. REMEDY KOMBUCHA We brew our kombucha the old school way in small batches for 30 days using real tea black and green tea leaves and a SCOBY, which stands for Symbiotic Culture Of (good) Bacteria and Yeast. The result of this traditional brewing method is a flavourful, all natural, sparkling bevvie that is packed with live cultures, tea polyphenols (aka antioxidants) and organic acids. REMEDY SODALY & REMEDY SWITCHEL ACV These two bevvies are made with a base of apple cider vinegar (ACV), which contains gut-friendly prebiotics known to aid in digestion and deliver other benefits like enhancing immunity and healthy skin. REMEDY SHOTS The perfect blend of delicious and functional ingredients in a mini-but-mighty 60ml bottle gives you a direct hit of goodness. Remedy Shots are an easy and tasty way to give your immune system a boost, ease your digestion, give you an energy kick (boo-yah!) and promote relaxation.
