Graasi has been recognized in the LUXlife Food & Drink Awards 2025, receiving the title of Best Barley Water Brand 2025 – USA.

The award, presented to LaCorata Beverage LLC (DBA Graasi), marks an important milestone for the brand and recognizes its growing presence within the food and beverage industry.

Bringing Barley Water Into a New Era

Barley water has a long history, but Graasi was created to introduce the concept to a new generation of consumers.

The brand takes inspiration from this traditional beverage and brings it into a contemporary format centered around organic ingredients, plant-based hydration, and refreshing flavors.

That combination gives Graasi a distinctive position in a beverage landscape increasingly focused on functionality and simpler ingredient choices.

A Recognition for the Graasi Approach

Being named Best Barley Water Brand 2025 – USA is particularly meaningful because the recognition focuses specifically on the category Graasi is working to reintroduce.

Rather than simply creating another functional water, Graasi is building an identity around barley water itself—connecting a heritage-inspired beverage with today’s interest in plant-based wellness and everyday hydration.

LUXlife’s official 2025 winners list includes LaCorata Beverage LLC (DBA Graasi), while its dedicated winner page identifies the company specifically as Best Barley Water Brand 2025 – USA.

The Beginning of Growing Industry Recognition

The LUXlife award also became part of a larger story for Graasi.

Following the 2025 recognition, the brand went on to receive several additional honors in 2026 across functional water, organic beverages, plant-based hydration, and food innovation. BevNET’s June 2026 announcement includes the LUXlife award alongside Graasi’s Mindful Awards and GHP recognitions, as well as its World Food Innovation Awards and NEXTY honors.

Together, these milestones reflect growing recognition of Graasi’s distinctive place within the evolving functional beverage category.

Celebrating a Modern Take on Barley Water

For Graasi, the Best Barley Water Brand 2025 – USA recognition celebrates the idea that inspired the brand from the beginning: taking something rooted in tradition and giving it a fresh expression for modern life.

It’s another step toward introducing more consumers to barley water—and showing just how refreshing a simple idea can become.
