Spice is nice, how about in a drink?

When you think of Cayenne, your mind conjures up the idea of rich, foreign soils and the famous Cayenne chilli’s. You don’t think of those same chillis being bottled as a refreshing drink alongside lime and cucumber! This is exactly what co-founders of NIX&KIX, Julia and Kerstin have come up with. Ditching their day Jobs, their dream began with a ‘lab’ in the back of a salad bar in Shoreditch. “We experimented to find an ingredient that delivers a healthy kick without any negative side effects. We eventually came across cayenne pepper, which fitted the bill nicely.” With the salad bar customers as the perfect testers, they came up with their first range of drinks with a kick in March 2015!

With such an interesting take on their market, and the added benefits that the Cayenne Pepper have, the business is growing at a surprising rate! Now residents at Launch22, Julia and Kerstin are looking to expand their brand by introducing new products and grow their team.
