Meet SAO
São was founded with the intention of providing healthy beverage options for individuals seeking to balance out their busy lives. The founder, who faced the challenge of juggling a demanding corporate career and a rigorous exercise routine, became frustrated with the limited options of sugary sodas, caffeinated and alcoholic drinks. To address this issue, she created a formula that combined the taste of traditional cocktails with the best low-sugar organic ingredients. To provide an extra boost, she infused São with adaptogens and nootropics, creating guilt-free drinks that allow you to socialize, relax, and wake up without a hangover. Inspired by loved ones who chose to become sober-curious and her own personal goals to achieve maximum potential in a demanding Los Angeles lifestyle, São’s Latina founder discovered the idea during a moment of epiphany at a Brazilian waterfall. Experience the transformative power of São Mocktails and join us in our commitment to promoting wellness and mindful consumption.
