Welcome to the nomination form for Best Drinks Producer in the BBC Food & Farming Awards 2026.
This category raises a glass to the beverage producers – from gin distillers to winemakers, from juice producers to milkshake manufacturers. Tell us about the people and brands you feel are pushing boundaries and challenging norms – delivering products in new ways or introducing inventive marketing, to ensure we get to enjoy delicious, quality drinks. Tell us about the drinks producers you want to see recognised, and why. We would especially like to hear about producers who are thinking seriously about the impact of their businesses on the environment from supply chain, production and packaging.
