Vita Coco: Celebrities and GOOP readers.

Acai: Guys who went to Burning Man once and now do tai chi.

Kombucha: Hippie alcoholics.

Smartwater: Wealthy yoga moms with anxiety problems.

Fuze: Dieters who are nostalgic for Squeezit.

Hint: College girls who ran out of mixers.


Vitamin water:
People with hangovers.

Pom: Rich conservatives who still shop at Whole Foods.
