For centuries, bird’s nest has been treasured in East and Southeast Asia as a symbol of beauty, vitality, and premium nutrition. But while its benefits are widely recognized, the traditional preparation process — hours of soaking, cleaning, and double boiling — keeps many modern consumers away.
To address the growing gap between traditional health and modern convenience, our team developed a ready-to-drink milk-cooked bird's nest that is both practical and delicious, requiring no preparation.
We designed a 200g milk-based functional beverage, featuring:
Genuine bird’s nest extract, with visible strands per serving
Low-temperature sterilization to retain natural texture and bioactive compounds
A base of light dairy, with the option for lactose-free or plant-based milk alternatives
Minimal sugar, no additives, and a rich yet subtle flavor profile
Packaging was customized in a premium single-serve glass jar, suitable for both home and retail environments.
Why It Worked
Transformed a luxury tonic into an everyday wellness drink
Strong resonance with beauty-driven buyers looking for collagen support
High consumer repeat rate due to mouthfeel + perceived efficacy
Fast-growing interest from distributors of Asian functional drinks
Perfect For:
✔ On-the-go consumers
✔ Women aged 25–45
✔ Light breakfast, afternoon wellness breaks
✔ Premium spa, gift, and beauty channels
Let’s Create the Next Wellness Bestseller.
