Prebiotics & Gut Health
What is a prebiotic margarita?
A prebiotic margarita is a modern take on the classic cocktail, made with prebiotic agave inulin fiber to support gut health. Instead of empty calorie mixers, Ellevate blends real citrus, botanicals, and 5 g of prebiotic fiber so you get bold flavor and a gut-friendly boost. See The Science Behind Ellevate.
Are prebiotics actually good for you?
Yes. Prebiotics are plant fibers that feed beneficial gut bacteria, improving digestion, energy, and even skin health. See The Science Behind Ellevate.
Can a prebiotic margarita really help my gut?
It’s not a cure, but choosing drinks with prebiotic fiber supports a balanced gut microbiome. It’s a smarter alternative to sugary mixers that do nothing for your health. See The Science Behind Ellevate.

How can I balance flavor and gut health?
At Ellevate, we believe great flavor and gut health can coexist beautifully. Our prebiotic margaritas are crafted with 5g of prebiotic fiber that nourishes your body’s beneficial bacteria and help you feel good from the inside out.
Why does gut health matter?
Your gut does more than digest. It impacts everything from your energy to your skin and mood. Studies show that prebiotic fibers feed the “good” gut bacteria, helping balance digestion, support your immune system, and even influence healthy skin.
Is there research to support the role of prebiotic fiber?
Yes, see below for science-backed studies linking prebiotics to stronger gut barriers, calmer skin, and better overall wellness.

Flavor & Craft
What makes Ellevate’s margarita zero-proof?
Zero-proof means no alcohol, but all the flavor and ritual of a margarita. You can sip it straight or mix it with your favorite spirit. No judgment either way.
What does Ellevate taste like?
Each flavor tells its own story. There’s bright Citrus Lemongrass, warm Blood Orange Cardamom, floral Hibiscus Orange, tropical Pineapple Rosemary & Ginger, and fiery Spicy Mango. All made from real botanicals for pure, vibrant flavor. Explore all our global flavors.
Why isn’t Ellevate sweeter?
We totally get it; everyone’s palate is different! Ellevate is crafted to balance bold, natural flavor with mindful sweetness. Instead of loading up on added sugars or artificial syrups, we use real citrus and a touch of sugar to let the botanicals shine.
Each pouch has just enough sweetness to make the flavors pop, without overpowering the zesty lime, blood orange, or warm spices. That balance also helps keep it refreshing, gut-friendly, and only around 50–70 calories per serving. If you prefer a sweeter sip, feel free to add a sweetener of your choice, mixing with a lightly sweetened sparkling water, or serving it over ice with a salted or sugared rim for contrast.
Ellevate’s goal isn’t to taste like a soda, it’s to taste real, vibrant, and satisfying. Once you tune in to those natural flavors, most people find they don’t miss the extra sugar at all.
How is Ellevate different from other margaritas?
Most margarita mixes are neon-colored and sugar-heavy. Ellevate is handcrafted in small batches with real citrus, botanicals, and prebiotics. Ready to drink or ready to mix your way.
Is Ellevate ready-to-drink or do I have to mix it?
Both! Pour it over ice for a ready-to-drink zero-proof margarita, or add the spirit of your choice for a classic cocktail. Shake, sip, and enjoy however you like.
Lifestyle & Wellness
Is Ellevate only for people who don’t drink alcohol?
Not at all. It’s for anyone who loves flavor, wellness, and choice. Drink it zero-proof today, or spike it tomorrow. It’s made for both.
Can I drink Ellevate with friends who are drinking alcohol?
Definitely. You’ll still be part of the ritual. Same glass, same vibe, better ingredients. See 5 Ways to Enjoy a Mocktail Ritual Without Compromise
How many calories are in each pouch?
Depending on the flavor, there are 50 to 70 calories per pouch. Light, refreshing, and full of flavor. You get the taste of a margarita without the sugar crash or hangover.
How to Enjoy Ellevate
Can I add tequila (or another alcohol) to Ellevate?

Where are Ellevate’s ingredients sourced?
We source real fruit, botanicals, and spices from trusted growers around the world. Each flavor celebrates ingredients tied to the culture that inspired it, like lemongrass from Southeast Asia, or cardamom from India.
Why did Ellevate choose flexible pouches over glass and aluminum?
We switched from glass bottles to lightweight flexible pouches to reduce our carbon footprint and make our drinks easier to enjoy anywhere. Flexible drink pouches use less energy and fewer materials to produce, ship, and store. This cuts total greenhouse gas emissions by up to 60–80% compared to glass and as much as 50% compared to aluminum cans, according to ifeu’s Comparative Life Cycle Assessment Study (2021).
While aluminum is highly recyclable, it’s also energy-intensive to create. Producing new aluminum requires about 10 times more energy than making flexible packaging. Even when recycled, aluminum still has a higher overall environmental impact than pouches that weigh less and transport more efficiently.
As a small brand, we haven’t yet reached the minimum order quantities for fully recyclable or compostable pouches, but that’s our next milestone. For now, our flexible packaging already delivers a smaller carbon footprint and a lighter environmental impact from production to delivery without compromising flavor, quality, or experience.
Is Ellevate made locally?
Yes, each batch is handcrafted in small runs within the U.S., We produce Ellevate in Warren, RI using globally sourced ingredients and local production partners.
How does Ellevate give back?
A portion of every purchase supports hunger-relief programs, because we believe everyone deserves access to good food and drink.
Why does small-batch production matter?
It allows for better quality control, fresher ingredients, and consistency in flavor. You get the handcrafted experience in every sip.
