Wonki

Supermarkets refuse to sell funny-looking produce, which means over 25% of it goes to food-waste (hello climate change).

The solution? Hard seltzers made with fresh, funny-looking produce. Saved from becoming food waste. Transformed into a cheeky climate change fighter.

The team of three  Monash University students partnered with Farmers Pick for produce sourcing, Market Juice for juicing, and have the final product manufactured at Gypsy Hub. These integral industry connections have allowed the Wonki team to trial the manufacturing process from start to finish, and educate themselves on the pressing Australian landfill crisis through the knowledge of local experts.

Wonki’s seltzer flavours will fluctuate as the seasons do, depending on what fruit and vegetables are readily available at the time (and need saving). Low-sugar alternative to traditional alcoholic beverage options, and allows consumers to support Australian farmers on a mission to divert valuable produce from landfill.
