Born in bars. – The Story behind Thomas Henry
MODERN DRINKING starts in bars
Modern drinking starts where drinks truly matter: behind the bar.
Bars are where new drinks are created, tested and shared. Where flavour matters.
Where a drink has to work in the glass.
That’s where Thomas Henry was born.
WHAT IS MODERN DRINKING?
Drinking culture has changed.
Bars are no longer just about the night.
They’re about aperitif hour, day drinking, dinner pairings, alcohol-free moments and long conversations at the table.
Drinks today are lighter, more precise and more consciously chosen — but never compromising on flavour.
Between classic soft drinks and cocktails, a new category has emerged:
Modern drinks.
CREATED WITH BARTENDERS
Real drinking trends don’t start in reports.
They start behind the bar.
In service.
In conversation with guests.
In the constant search for better drinks.
That’s where we listen.
We watch how drinking habits evolve.
Which drinks stay.
Which new ones appear.
And which flavours define modern drinking.
WHAT COMES NEXT
Thomas Henry grew up in the international bar scene.
Between ice, glass and counter.
Where drinks aren’t explained – they’re ordered.
Where it quickly becomes clear if a drink truly works.
Together with bartenders around the world, we develop premium mixers, sodas and lemonades designed for real drinking moments.
Perfect for highballs, cocktails, spritz drinks or alcohol-free serves.
Not for the next hype.
But for drinks people actually want to order again.
THE FUTURE OF MODERN DRINKS
Modern drinking never stands still.
New occasions.
New flavours.
New rituals.
From bars around the world, new drinks continue to emerge.
And we’re right there:
creating the mixers, sodas and lemonades that bring them to life.
