Our Story

The drinks we grew up on,
made a better way.

Brewer's Junction started with a plain Southern truth: we love our sweet tea, our lemonade, our Arnold Palmers. We just did not love the sugar and the calories that always came riding along. So we set out to fix that, one small batch at a time, right here in Memphis.

Where It Began

It started in a Memphis kitchen, with a teacher who would not settle for the usual tradeoff.

Brewer's Junction started with Rajiv Rohatgi, a chemistry teacher at Christian Brothers High School right here in Memphis. Like most folks down here, he grew up on the Southern staples: sweet tea on the porch, cold lemonade in the summer, a good margarita with friends. What he never loved was everything that came riding along with them, the cane sugar, the calories, and the artificial stand-ins lining the store shelf. For Rajiv, who happens to be diabetic, cutting the sugar was personal, but the goal was always simple: a drink anyone would want to reach for.

So he did what a chemistry teacher does. He got to work. Blend after blend, tested at home, until the tea tasted like Sunday supper again and the lemonade tasted like summer, this time with the sugar taken out. What he landed on became Brewer's Junction, the Southern classics you love, made the way they should have been all along.

The secret is a proprietary blend of three natural sweeteners: erythritol, agave nectar, and stevia. Full flavor, about ten calories a glass, all natural, and not one artificial thing in the bottle. Word got around the neighborhood, the batches got bigger, and Brewer's Junction was born. In his free time, Rajiv is still tinkering, better-for-you ice cream, Kool-Aid, and more that we hope to add down the road.

The Idea

Sweet on flavor. Easy on sugar.

The whole idea behind Brewer's Junction is refreshingly simple. Start with the Southern classics people already love, then take out everything they never wanted in the first place. No cane sugar hangover. No artificial aftertaste. No fine print you need a chemistry degree to read.

What is left is a drink you can hand to just about anyone at the table. It is keto and diabetic friendly. It is all natural. And it still tastes like the sweet tea your grandmother made on the porch. That is where traditional meets healthy, and it is the promise in every single bottle.
