Beverage trends you need to know [Recorded Live @ Amsterdam Coffee Festival]

In today’s episode we’re bringing you the first in a series of interviews and discussions recorded live at the Amsterdam Coffee Festival 2025.

Celebrating its 10th year, the festival was buzzing with energy, ideas, and innovation, as industry leaders and entrepreneurs from all across Europe came together for an inspiring celebration of coffee.

In this 5THWAVE live session, we’re diving into the world of alternative beverages and exploring how cafés are expanding their menus to stay ahead of the curve in an increasingly competitive market.

We’re joined by four pioneers shaping this space: Merijn Gijsbers, Champion and Brand Ambassador for Alpro, Dennis Durlinger, Brand Manager, Monin, Ahmed Mahla, Head Roaster, Spicekix Coffee Lab, and Vicky Ceulemans, Founder, Bodhi Drinks.

Credits music: "You Would Not Get It" by Frances Willow in association with The Coffee Music Project and SEB Collective
