Annual Awards Program Recognizes Top Mindful Companies, Services and Products Within the Packaged Goods Industry
LOS ANGELES, June 8, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- The 2022 Mindful Awards Program, an independent recognition platform highlighting conscious companies and products that mindfully make waves in the ever-expanding world of consumer-packaged goods, today announced that Karviva Beverages has been selected as the winner of the "Mindful Innovation of the Year" award in the Leadership Category.
Karviva Unwined wine replacement juice is Karviva's latest innovation. Inspired by the rich fruity flavor and chewy texture of Malbec wine, it's a sophisticated blend of aronia berry and dark cherry - two anti-inflammatory powerhouses. Additional ingredients include schisandra berry and mulberry, two adaptogens that are known to boost immunity, relieve stress, calm the mind and protect the heart. Together, this strikingly burgundy-red juice simulates a perfect taste of Malbec with a smoky aroma, layers of fruitiness and a tantalizing balance between sweet and tannin.
This first-of-its-kind, product, Karviva Unwined, is singular in that its production bypasses the labor intensive and wasteful de-alcohol process while also providing a wide range of health benefits in comparison to other non-alcohol products. A 12oz bottle of Karviva Unwined contains only 80 calories with no added sugar or sweeteners.
Karviva beverages offer the convenience of a single serving portable option - ideal in today's fast-paced world; the bottle is lightweight, easy to carry and uses BPA free, recyclable level 1 plastic. Karviva only uses real whole fruits, with all edible parts included to maximize the prebiotics, antioxidants and anti-microbial compounds that naturally exist in the fruit skins, therefore minimizing food waste.
The company's patented production process utilizes a vertical in-house hydroponic garden to grow key ingredients, reducing water usage by up to 90% compared to traditional farming. Their juicing process is designed to eliminate unnecessary storage and transportation steps, reducing their overall carbon footprint.
"We are incredibly grateful to be singled out for a Mindful Award. We feel that we bring the fundamental principle of mindfulness as a core tenant of our business. We aim to empower individuals to make wise choices on their path to wellness through our connection of ancient wisdom and modern science. Out of respect for the mind, body and earth, each drink is produced sustainably," said Karviva CEO and Founder, Angela Zeng, PhD. "We focus on the selection, sourcing and farming of functional ingredients. Our patented production process reduces waste and has a low carbon footprint and our award-winning package design focused on recyclability - all contributing to our 'Food Is Better Medicine' philosophy."
The mission of the Mindful Awards program is to honor conscious companies and products that do what's right for people and the planet. Recognizing the best in transparent, fair, natural, organic, sustainable, healthy and delicious products. This year's program attracted more than 1650 nominations from companies all over the world.
