The RTD tea and coffee market is shifting in quality to keep pace with increased interest in healthier ingredients and authentic experiences. As consumers become savvier, brands respond by bringing tea leaves directly into the plant as part of their brewing process and moving away from tea and coffee made from liquid extracts and powders

The category is awash with trends, one being cold-brewed, followed by cold-brewed coffee. It is made with Tea & coffee leaves steeped in cold water for up to 24 hours. This brewing style requires more leaves to ensure that enough flavours are extracted.

The increasing prevalence of on-the-go consumption, particularly among the urban and younger demographics, has significantly contributed to its market growth. Consumers are attracted to the vast array of flavours and varieties available in the ready-to-drink (RTD) tea and coffee segment, catering to their diverse preferences. Moreover, the shift towards healthier and more convenient beverage options has been a key driver in market growth.

RTD tea and coffee are a subgroup of soft drinks, although they differ in their function with proven health benefits.
The altering lifestyles, which encourage on-the-go eating, and a growing trend of replacing meals with smaller nutritional snacks and drinks have resulted in the adoption of RTD Tea and coffee.

Another factor attributing to the market's growth is the health-conscious population who prefer the antioxidant properties of RTD tea.
