The nitro tea market value is estimated to be worth USD 27.3 million in 2024. Global nitro tea demand is set to progress at a CAGR of 7.8% during the assessment period, total market value is projected to reach USD 58 million by 2034.
Nitro tea’s adoption is shooting up as consumers are preferring their tea to be healthy while still giving the familiar whiff of the renowned drink. The antioxidant properties of nitrogen-based tea are thus earning it more consumers. The overall popularity of nitro drinks is also responsible for the tea product’s proliferation.
Ready-to-drink beverage versions of the product are becoming popular as consumers prefer convenience in their drinking. The online boom helps too as it ensures consumers do not have to go out of their way to procure these drinks.
Manufacturers are focused on reducing the cost associated with manufacturing to increase profit margins. Manufacturer focus is also being pulled towards packaging. Attractive packaging that draws in consumers is seen as the way to forge ahead in the market.
There are, however, certain factors that limit growth. The limited availability of usable nitrogen gas, especially in areas where nitrogen beverages have not made a big impact, is a concern. Lack of knowledge about the drink is also an industry negative.
