Carbonated beverages lead despite a 7.4% sales drop, followed by bottled water (1.2% increase) and energy drinks (1.7% increase). Significant movements include Minute Maid's climb in bottled juices and Powerade overtaking Bodyarmor in sports drinks. In energy drinks, Red Bull, Monster, and Celsius hold the top spots, with Ghost and Rockstar showing notable gains. Bottled water brand rankings are unchanged, with a shift towards nonflavored options. In coffee, Folgers Ground takes the lead despite a sales dip. The tea and non-fruit drink categories show minimal changes with Bigelow and Nestle leading, respectively. Ready-to-drink sectors and aseptic juices observed steady positions, highlighting consistent consumer choices.
