The global dairy free cream liqueur market was valued at $1.5 billion in 2021, and is projected to reach $4.2 billion by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 10.8% from 2022 to 2031.
Dairy free cream liqueur is made from non-dairy milk such as almond milk, oat milk, or coconut milk. This beverage is majorly consumed by people who are suffering from medical conditions such as lactose intolerance or have dietary preferences like veganism. It differs from lactose-free cream liqueur, which is made with non-dairy milk source, whereas dairy free cream liqueur is made entirely of vegan milk and other vegan ingredients.
In recent years, there has been a remarkable increase in the global vegan population. According to a report by Grubhub—a leading prepared food & beverage delivery service in the U.S.—orders for plant-based foods and beverages increased by 17% in 2021. This is attributed to the fact that many people are adopting veganism to improve their dietary intake or to overcome allergies or other food-related conditions that prevent them from consuming animal-derived products. Moreover, a significant increase has been witnessed in the vegan population in Europe, particularly in the UK, which has the world's largest vegan population as well as the highest demand for cream liqueur. As the global vegan population grows, many engaged stakeholders in the food & beverage industry are developing vegan versions of their products, including cream liqueurs, thus assisting the dairy free cream liqueur market growth significantly.
The surge in spending on recreational activities— such as going to bars, pubs, and parties as well as attending various music events and festivals—has simultaneously increased the consumption of alcohol, including dairy free cream liqueurs. In addition, consumers are keen on experimenting with various spirits and liqueurs, which significantly increases the demand for dairy free cream liqueurs, thus augmenting the dairy free cream liqueur industry growth.
Non-dairy milk such as almond milk, oat milk, and coconut milk—which are suspensions of solid particles in water that have a milk-like appearance and texture—are used to make dairy free cream liqueurs. Spirits are added to the concoction during the dairy free cream liqueur production process, which increases the acidity levels of the beverage and speeds up the separation process of the solid suspensions in the dairy free milk. Furthermore, an increase in the acidity of the beverage can cause milk coagulation, resulting in an unpleasant drinking sensation. These circumstances necessitate the use of emulsifiers, which can cause allergies and digestive issues in some consumers. Thus, issues that arise during the beverage manufacturing process create barriers to the dairy free cream liqueur market growth.
Migration to cities has been witnessed to increase considerably in search of work, which has led to a rise in per capita & disposable income. Fine dining and gastronomy are growing in popularity in cities, with many consumers seeking unique tastes and flavors. Dairy free cream liqueur is a one-of-a-kind liqueur that will appeal to many people who are looking for new beverages and foods. As the region develops, more people will enter the upper middle and rich classes, and they will learn more about various types of spirits and liqueurs, including dairy free cream liqueurs. This increased awareness, combined with the growing vegan population in developing countries, will result in a greater acceptance of dairy free cream liqueurs, thus boosting the growth of the global dairy free cream liqueur market.
The dairy free cream liqueur market is segmented into Source, Flavor and Distribution Channel, and Region. By source, the dairy free cream liqueur market is classified into almond, oat, coconut, and others. Depending on the flavor, it is categorized into chocolate, caramel, vanilla, strawberry, and others. According to the distribution channel, it is segregated into on trade and off trade. Region wise, it is analyzed across North America (U.S., Canada, and Mexico), Europe (UK, Germany, France, Italy, Spain, Netherlands, and rest of Europe), Asia-Pacific (China, Japan, India, South Korea, Australia, and rest of Asia-Pacific), and LAMEA (Brazil, Argentina, South Africa, and rest of LAMEA).
Almond milk is one of the most popular milk substitutes exhibiting a neutral flavor, which helps to bring out the other flavors in the liqueurs. Majority of the dairy free cream liqueur manufacturers prefer almond milk due to its low cost and abundant availability, due to which it has the highest dairy free cream liqueur market demand. Oat milk is a popular non-dairy milk for desserts and sweeter beverages. It is the creamiest nondairy milk, adding thickness and richness to the products. Coconut milk is one of the oldest dairy free milk varieties and exhibits a sweet coconut flavor. Coconut milk is witnessing increasing popularity for dairy free cream liqueurs due to its thickness and numerous health benefits associated with coconut. Soy milk, rice milk, cashew milk, and other milk substitutes are also used to make dairy free cream liqueurs. They are used less for the production of dairy free cream liqueur as they can have characteristics that are not suitable for certain types of liqueurs, but their use in dairy free cream liqueurs is growing.
Chocolate is one of the world's most popular flavors due to the presence of several psychoactive chemicals as well as chemicals such as tryptophan, which aid in the buildup of serotonin, making consumers happy. Caramel is a popular flavor, particularly for drinks and beverages, as it adds sweetness to the beverage. Vanilla serves as a gentle base for a variety of other flavors and cocktails, and it is also widely used in desserts and bakeries. The aroma of vanilla is highly appealing to consumers, which contributes to the appeal of dairy free cream liqueurs with vanilla. Strawberries' sweet and tart flavor combination as well as their appealing colors contribute to the flavor's popularity, particularly among the younger generation, which prefers sweeter flavors. Mint, banana, tropical fruits, spices, and other flavors are available for dairy free cream liqueur. These flavors for dairy free cream liqueurs are becoming more popular as manufacturers experiment with various flavor combinations and recipes to create unique and innovative flavors that are appealing to consumers, which is helping increase the dairy free cream liqueur market size.
The trade channel includes alcohol serving establishments such as bars, pubs, breweries, restaurants, clubs, and others. The on-trade channel requires a different approach than the off-trade segment for the sale and distribution of alcoholic beverages. Professionals working in on-trade outlets, such as bartenders and waiters, are thought to play an important role in the product's sales process in this segment. Through menu listing and back bar display, the on-trade sales channel has a significant impact on merchandising dairy free cream liqueurs. Consumers tend to enjoy and experience liqueurs in such settings, particularly with friends and acquaintances. With the recent increase in consumer spending and growing adoption of various types of regular and dairy free cream liqueur brands, the on-trade sales channel has played a positive role in contributing to sales growth. Furthermore, with an increase in the number of young people experimenting with cocktails, the sale of dairy free cream liqueurs, particularly liqueurs flavored with chocolate and caramel, through bartenders in bars and pubs has increased significantly. The off-trade sales channel includes alcohol serving retails such as convenience stores, supermarkets, specialty stores, hypermarkets, and others. The majority of the off-trade sales are generated by specialty stores and large supermarket chains. In-store promotions, tastings for select products, membership offers, and other strategies have boosted the sales of a variety of liqueurs through this segment. The off-trade segment is critical to the market in terms of the quantity of liqueurs sold. Dairy free cream liqueurs are available in a variety of stores, including hypermarkets, supermarkets, and specialty shops. The recent increase in online alcohol purchases, on the other hand, has reduced the frequency of consumer visits to retail stores. Despite the fact that easy accessibility and numerous discounts offered in retail stores are the growth drivers of the off trade segment for the spirits category, the off trade segment has attracted a larger dairy free cream liqueur market share due to higher sales in terms of quantity and value.
Cream liqueurs are becoming increasingly popular in North America, and the region's growing vegan population is driving the demand for dairy free cream liqueurs, with consumers preferring sweeter flavors. Most North American consumers are casual drinkers who prefer locally sourced and produced alcoholic beverages. Many new dairy free cream liqueur manufacturers are emerging in the region to provide consumers with a variety of options, which is increasing demand for dairy free cream liqueurs in the region. As cream liqueurs were invented in Ireland, Europe is one of the largest consumers of the beverage, with many consumers preferring traditional flavors. Many small entrants across the region are producing dairy free cream liqueurs with oat milk, which increases the demand for dairy free cream liqueur, as oats are widely grown in Europe, and it provides consumers with the assurance that locally grown and processed products are used in the manufacturing of their dairy free cream liqueurs. Increase in recreational alcohol consumption among Asian consumers as well as the willingness of the younger generation to experiment with different types of alcohols and cocktails present significant growth opportunities for the Dairy Free Cream Liqueur Industry growth in Asia-Pacific. LAMEA comprises several developing and underdeveloped countries, and the religious state of some countries prohibit alcohol consumption. However, extensive tourism and rise in income are driving the dairy free cream liqueur market forecast in LAMEA.
