Organic Drink Mix Brand Fave Secures $1 Million Seed Funding

The brand positions itself as a clean-label alternative to legacy products often saturated with artificial dyes and high sugar content. While competitors have prioritized performance and functional additives, Fave founder Ryan Raish is betting on nostalgia. The company’s initial lineup—including Lemonade, Fruit Punch, Strawberry Lemonade, and Tangy Orange—contains 6 grams of organic cane sugar and 25 calories per serving, meeting USDA Organic and Non-GMO Project Verified standards.

Raish, a veteran of CPG brands like Honest Tea and popchips, spent two years refining the product formulations. Supernatural Ventures, which previously backed consumer hits like Poppi and Goodles, led the investment round. The brand has already garnered industry attention, securing a "Golden Ticket" from KeHE and earning an "Up Next" designation from UNFI. Fave products are currently available in 10-count cartons at Sprouts for $8.99, alongside direct-to-consumer sales on Amazon and the company's own website.
