The festive season will be here in a few days and as is the tradition, there will be lots of shopping for food, drinks and everything that will make the yuletide a memorable one. But what exactly will you be drinking this Christmas?

Naturally, everyone desires to drink only the best beverages on the market and this is why bodies like Ghana Beverage Awards strives to recognize and promote beverages excelling in their various specialties.

At the peak of celebrations, it is easy to get carried away and gulp down any ‘good’ beverage going around the table. Even for those who stick to well-known/ trusted beverage brands, be reminded to look out for nitty-gritties like the expiry dates of every product you buy. A healthy beverage is one which is in low in calories and supplies the needful nutritional fluids to the body.

Ghana’s Beverage Industry

According to research, Ghanaians already rank among some of the most regular drinkers on the continent, with an average annual alcohol consumption of 5.4 litres of alcohol per capita. This places Ghana above key regional markets such as Ethiopia, Kenya, and Zambia, while still some way behind regional leaders South Africa, Namibia, and Nigeria (Asoko Insight & Fraym, 2017). Ghana is a country that is full of potential to export very huge amounts of produce to the international market. This, however, is always faced with serious challenges due to very intense competition from the international world with regards to issues such as price, product quality, payment terms and other trade issues (Akoetey, 2013). That regardless, the beverage industry is booming with new products every year. This brings us to another challenge which accompanies this growth; regulation. Regulation is about the biggest issue in the industry as individuals keep churning out products with do not undergo safety testing by the Food and Drugs Authority. With Christmas around the corner, many of these manufacturers are going to employ all sorts of advertising to cash-in on the buzz of the season.

The Traditional Christmas in Ghana

Without special mention to any brands, the typical Ghanaian knows the branded drinks we often find on our tables at Christmas. This season there will be water, juices, wine, beer, dairy products and more of various brands. Your choice of the ideal beverage will be dependent on how much you trust the brand and how consistent in taste and quality the brand has been. No matter your beverage choice, by all means, make sure you are making a quality and healthy choice for you and your loved ones. The Ghana Beverage Awards allows Ghanaians to make an assessment of beverage options on the Ghanaian market. The Awards assembles approved beverage varieties and rewards them for maintaining high quality standards.
