Who or what is your inspiration in business?

I come from a family of immigrants from Lebanon I’ve seen what pollution has done to the planet plastics bottles filling the ocean and rivers in Lebanon all over the street. My new product is environmentally friendly take on soda with few inconveniences. I want to create a product that will better the future the environment is crucial aspect of that.

How do you stay motivated?

It’s hard to stay motivated especially when friends and family treat your idea as a side project that is going nowhere. What keeps me motivated is going to the farmers markets having people try my product saying how great it is they can’t even tell it comes from a powder and me and my team have been told multiple times when are we gonna be on shark tank. Seeing people try our product at these stands and be amazed buying and donating to our company supporting us that is my key driver.

What would you do with the $25,000?

We want to use the 25,000 grand for our next round of production since we are doing a larger production run we need more capital. The rest of our money is currently going to creating new flavors and adding prebiotics and electrolytes to give the consumer benefits rather then draw backs from other soda brands.
