Wine proved popular on Drizly in August, driven by an uptick in summer red wine purchasing, as did coconut water, a rising accompaniment to beverage alcohol consumption.

Last month, non-alcoholic spirits experienced the highest year-over-year sales increase within the spirits category, underscoring the fact that consumers are seeking out NA options year-round. The top sellers in August were **Seedlip Grove 42, St. Agrestis Phony Negroni, Ritual Zero Proof Tequila Alternative, Seedlip Spice 94,** and **Kin Euphorics Lightwave,** Drizly said.

Once again, the California Common/Steam Beer category led growth in beer year-over-year as consumers continue to stock up **Anchor Steam**, following the news that **Anchor Brewing Co.** would close. Within the wine category, **Verdejo** varietal wines were the fastest growing year-over-year; the top seller was Gulp/Hablo La Mancha Verdejo, a producer that is better known for its orange wine.

**Mom Water** ranked as the beer brand with the highest year-over-year sales increase last month. Mom Water – a line of fruit-infused vodka waters without carbonation – was led by their Mom Squad Variety Pack, Karen Lemon Blueberry, and Sandy Coconut Mango.

Top Friulian producer **Livio Felluga** led year-over-year growth among wine brands last month. Among their red and white wines, their Pinot Grigio was the best seller. Within the spirits category, **Blackened American Whiskey** was the fastest-growing brand, further proving the power of celebrity whiskey brands – Blackened is a collaboration between Metallica and the late legendary craft distiller Dave Pickerell.

Drizly users were purchasing more wine in August, with wine share increasing nearly a full percentage point month-over-month (to 36% from 35%). Red wine was a key driver of this growth – seeing an uptick to 32% of wine share from 30% of wine share– echoing sentiments from Drizly’s consumer report earlier this year, the respondents noted they would be reaching for more red wine this summer. Rosé, on the other hand, dropped a percentage point in share from July to August.

Among the fastest-growing categories month-over-month was an extras category: coconut water. This indicates that coconut water is becoming more popular among beverage alcohol consumers, either in cocktails or as a way of hydrating while drinking. Top sellers included **Vita Coco**, **Harmless Harvest** (which rose to No. 2 from No. 6 year-over-year), **Vita Coco Pressed, Foco,** and **Vita Coco with Pineapple**.
