For example, in Brazil, coffee-flavored RTD beverages are gaining popularity, while in China, green tea-based drinks are in high demand. This trend is driven by the desire for novelty and the willingness of consumers to try new flavors. Another trend in the market is the increasing availability of RTD Coffee & Tea products in different distribution channels.
