Seattle, Wash. (Jan. 12, 2016) – DRY Soda Co., tastemakers of gourmet sparkling beverages, today proudly announced that Cucumber, Ginger, Lavender, Rhubarb, Juniper, and Blood Orange DRY Sparkling have received verification from the Non-GMO Project. DRY Sparkling bottles and cans with the Non-GMO Project Verification seal will begin appearing on store shelves nationwide in May 2016.
“Clean ingredients were part of my original inspiration for DRY, so pursuing verification from the Non-GMO Project was a very natural step in highlighting our commitment to transparency and real ingredients,” said Sharelle Klaus, founder and CEO of DRY Soda Co. “We are thrilled that DRY is one of the first carbonated beverage brands to receive the non-GMO Project Verified seal. While our official verification from the Non-GMO Project is new, our loyal fans will be pleased to know that the DRY beverages they’ve been sipping for years have been made without GMOs the whole time.”
The path to earning Non-GMO Project Verification is often rigorous and lengthy. However, DRY Sparkling quickly achieved approvals due to the line’s clean ingredient panel. Verification for the remaining DRY Sparkling flavors is anticipated by February 2016.
