Esio Hot & Cold Beverage System to Launch Nationwide This October

Revolutionary countertop unit first to offer both chilled and steaming hot national brand beverages and Esio-owned branded drinks at the touch of a button

MESA, Ariz.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Esio Beverage Company, maker of the first hot and cold, ready-to-drink beverage dispensing system, will launch a convenient countertop unit exclusively at Walmart U.S. stores this October along with more than 30 great-tasting branded drink choices including chilled juice drinks, lemonade, sports drinks and vitamin fitness waters as well as iced or hot coffees and teas.

“Walmart is the ideal premier retailer to launch this exciting next phase of Esio Beverage Company’s growth and we’re thrilled to make this state-of-the-art system available to consumers across the country”

All selections, including Kraft’s Country Time Lemonade and Crystal Light varieties, Campbell’s V8 Splash selections, Apple & Eve juice drinks, China Mist teas, Sqwincher sports drinks and Esio’s signature Barista Brothers Premium Coffees and Teas and its Vita-24 Fitness Water, will be available in patented MultiServe E-Paks™ at Walmart this fall. More national brand beverage announcements are coming soon. The beverage system will retail at Walmart for under $200 and will include two free E-Paks, a $12 value.

The revolutionary drop’ndrink™ technology embedded in the Esio Hot & Cold Beverage System allows users to instantly switch from cold lemonade (no ice needed) to freshly-brewed hot coffee, with no taste crossover or clean up required. Users can even customize the strength of each beverage, whether a cup or a pitcher, to their preference.

“The fantastic feedback we’ve received over the past six years on our floor stand system compelled us to find a way to make our revolutionary technology available to the mass consumer audience,” said Frank Leonesio, founder and CEO of Esio Beverage Company.

“Walmart is the ideal premier retailer to launch this exciting next phase of Esio Beverage Company’s growth and we’re thrilled to make this state-of-the-art system available to consumers across the country,” Leonesio said.

Healthier Choices, Unprecedented Technology, Eco-Friendly, Affordable

Esio Hot & Cold Beverage System drinks are low in sugar and calories, giving consumers healthy alternatives to traditional sugar-filled, high-calorie beverages.

The magic of the Esio system is its MultiServe technology, allowing the repeated use of its patented MultiServe E-Paks™ using chilled or hot water that’s always available. Esio’s reusable three-inch-square E-Paks (no refrigeration required) each produce up to 108 ounces (approximately 14 eight-ounce drinks) and the system’s exclusive patented Strength Selector™ allows consumers to pick the exact beverage strength they desire.

What’s more, the hassle-free beverage system is family-friendly and a proven time saver for today’s active adults and families with instantly available ice cold and steaming hot drinks.

The Esio system, a home and office space saver, is also eco-friendly; each tiny E-Pak eliminates nine 12-ounce cans or seven 16-ounce bottles that typically take up valuable refrigerator and pantry space before ending up in a landfill. The cost savings are significant too, with drinks from the Esio being more affordable than single-serve convenience beverages purchased at the store.

“The technology embedded in the Esio Hot & Cold Beverage System is truly a game-changer for the industry,” said Leonesio. “We’re thrilled to empower the consumer, allowing them to create their own great-tasting customized hot or cold beverages that are convenient, low in sugar and calories, economical and sustainable.”
