A first-of-its-kind drinks festival is coming to St. Pete’s Grand Central District this weekend, thanks to a local-favorite bottle shop. Herban Flow, St. Pete’s first functional and non-alcoholic bottle shop, announced that it is hosting The High & Dry Festival on Saturday, January 25 inside Coastal Creative’s sprawling event space at 2201 1st Avenue South.
Perfectly scheduled in the midst of Dry January (and on the same day as Gasparilla, for those looking for an alternative to that particular party), the festival will be a celebration of functional beverages and elevated vibes, taking place from 12-5 pm. Tickets are available now (limited to those 21+), starting at $50 for unlimited sampling. There will be more than 50 brands and 200+ beverages to experience over the five-hour festival.
Organizers say High & Dry will have the same atmosphere as a vibrant beer festival, “except here you’re indulging in cutting-edge functional, non-alcoholic beverages.” There will be hundreds of beverages available, with unlimited sampling as you peruse the different areas and taste different creations.
Categories include relaxing cannabis-infused beverages; adaptogenic and wellness-boosting mushroom elixirs; herbal infusions designed to elevate mood, energy, and overall wellness; and of course, all of the amazing NA beers, wines and mocktails that Herban Flow regulars love so much. All of the most popular brands across the country and in Florida will be showcased at this sprawling experience.
At the end of it all, one winner will be crowned the People’s Choice Champion.
Dive into the world of functional beverages
In addition to all the drinks, Herban Flow will also showcase interactive “Education Stations,” where industry experts will offer unique, hands-on opportunities to dive deep into the ingredients and formulations of functional beverages. There will also be food trucks, raffles and giveaways, as well as live sets from DJ SirLawrence.
Promising a “#SOBERAF” mentality, organizers invite attendees to “dive into the forefront of the beverage world where drinks are infused with herbs, mushrooms, or cannabis. Embrace this opportunity to uncover the next big thing in beverage evolution.”
For a preview of what to expect at The High & Dry Festival, we always recommend stopping by one of Herban Flow’s two St. Pete locations to shop an incredible array of NA and functional beverages and products. Learn more about The High & Dry Festival and get tickets here.
