• Family-run craft hard seltzer brand Two Brooks was awarded “One To Watch Family Business of the Year 2021” by Family Business United
• The hard seltzer brand was launched by 3 siblings at the start of the pandemic.
• Two Brooks retails at RRP £23.99 for a 12 pack of drinks at twobrooks.co.uk

Two Brooks have won the 'Ones To Watch' award at the prestigious Family Business of the Year Awards 2021 organised by Family Business United ('FBU')

Launched at the start of the pandemic by three millennial siblings, Two Brooks is all about keeping things simple and natural. Fed up of the calorie dense, artificial or strong RTDs on the market, the siblings set out to create the drink they wanted to drink but couldn't find. So they rolled up their sleeves and took matters into their own hands, despite the difficulties brought on by the global pandemic.

The craft drinks are made using only 3 ingredients, namely sparkling water, pure fruit spirit made from British apples and 100% natural fruit flavourings.

This means that they're naturally very low in calories, with no added sugars or artificial sweeteners, entirely gluten-free as well as vegan friendly. Perfectly 'sessionable' and refreshing for the summer ahead!

Now the three siblings are on a mission to revolutionise the way we drink, not only in the UK but also around the world. Their enthusiasm is infectious and they are certainly driven and passionate about what they do.  As Francesca Bruni explains, “We love what we do and working together as siblings is really special.  To have gone from a dream to an award-winning business within the space of a year, and a year that was engulfed by a global pandemic is almost unbelievable.  Team work really does make the dream work, even more so when you are working with your nearest and dearest too.”

As Paul Andrews, founder of FBU and organisers of the awards explains, “Family businesses are the engine room of the UK economy and these awards celebrate their contribution and the 'Ones to Watch' award seeks to recognise young family firms starting out on their journey which struck a chord with the business.”

“The past year has been difficult for many businesses so starting out a venture during a pandemic is clearly an added challenge for young ventures that needs to be overcome. Our winners are clearly passionate about their products and finding new ways to engage with customers and potential customers.  Starting out on their journeys the entrepreneurial spirit is clear to see and their desire to build on the family element of what they are doing is clearly evident too.”

“Our winners are looking to grow their businesses and we look forward to following the next stages in their journey too.  Hopefully, winning this award will give them a boost at the end of what has been a clearly difficult year for them all,” concludes Paul.
