Our Story
Dear customer,
KETONIQ began from something very personal. For years, health challenges meant I could not always join my friends when they went out to celebrate. While everyone else was raising a glass, I often felt like an outsider.
That changed when I discovered ketones. I discovered that they could bring a gentle uplift without alcohol, a way to share in the energy of those moments without the hangovers that follow. The problem was that the drinks I found overseas were expensive and difficult to get to South Africa. So I decided to create one myself.
KETONIQ is not about replacing alcohol. Some moments call for a cocktail or a glass of champagne, and we recognise the importance of those rituals. What we offer is a way to complement them. You can raise a toast with KETONIQ and still feel part of the moment, or switch to it after that first glass when you want to celebrate without drinking more. Our promise, “Redefine the Moment,” is about keeping you included while giving you the freedom to choose.
Cape Town, with its mix of vibrant nightlife and wellness culture, is where this vision comes to life. It is a city that knows how to celebrate but also values health, movement, and the outdoors. That spirit is at the heart of KETONIQ.
Here is what we stand for:
-
Inclusion: no one should feel left out of social rituals.
-
Balance: alcohol does not need replacing, just complementing.
-
Wellness-forward: clean ingredients, functional benefits, no hangovers.
-
Cape Town culture: proudly local, globally inspired.
Thank you for joining us on this journey. I am excited to share a drink that I believe can and will redefine how we enjoy life's moments.
With Gratitude,
Jamie
