Report Overview

The global packaged cactus water market size was valued at USD 16.72 million in 2019 and is expected to expand at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 20.4% from 2020 to 2027. The product has been gaining traction among fitness enthusiasts and athletes owing to its health benefits. It contains taurine, an amino acid, which helps in boosting the athletes' performance and repairing muscle tissues. Therefore, packaged cactus water is gaining popularity as a functional drink among the consumers doing an intense workout. Traditionally, packaged cactus water has been consumed for centuries in South America and Mexico. Cactus water is usually made with prickly pear fruit, which has a sweet taste. It is often marketed to sportspersons as it has electrolytes that boost the hydration of the body. The prickly pear fruit has 24 betalains that are beneficial to keep the skin healthy, reduce inflammation, and hydrate the body.

This ultra-hydrating beverage also helps in curing the hangover of alcohol. Therefore, consumers have it before drinking alcohol to reduce their possibilities of getting hungover. Furthermore, studies have shown that it can prevent liver damage initiated by liver toxins and alcohol. The health benefits associated with the beverage are expected to boost the product demand in the upcoming years. Furthermore, it is naturally low in calories and sugar, which is a current trend in the food and beverage industry. The magnesium and potassium contents of packaged cactus water help in managing fluid balance, heart function, and muscle control, boosting immunity, enhancing bone health, and reducing the risk of type 2 diabetes. These functions of the beverage are anticipated to fuel the growth of the market. However, the drink costs more than popular plant-based beverages, such as coconut water. The higher price may hinder the adoption of the packaged cactus water in the near future.
