Why Meexa Tastes Better at 30,000 Feet

The Unexpected Science Behind Your New Favourite Travel Drink

You’ve boarded your flight, you’re settling into your seat, and the drinks trolley rolls around. Oddly enough, a Bloody Mary sounds better than your usual G&T or wine — and that’s not just you. It’s science.

But what if we told you that Meexa — our bold, ready-to-drink Michelada — might just be the perfect in-flight upgrade to the classic Bloody Mary? A cocktail made for spice lovers, holiday goers, and jet-setters alike.

Here’s why Meexa doesn’t just taste great on the ground — it actually tastes better in the sky.

🍅 Why Bloody Marys Taste Better on Planes

Studies by Lufthansa and Cornell University have shown that airplane cabin conditions dull sweet and salty flavours by up to 30%. However, umami-rich ingredients — like tomato, soy, and spice — stay bold or even taste stronger.

That’s why Bloody Marys thrive at altitude… and why Meexa, with its spicy tomato-lime beer blend, thrives even more.

🌶 Why Meexa Is the Ultimate In-Flight Michelada

Meexa combines lager, lime juice, tomato extract, chilli, and umami-forward sauces like soy and Worcestershire.

• ✨ Fizz cuts through dry cabin air
• 🔥 Umami and spice shine at altitude
• 🍋 Acidity from lime stays vibrant
• 🌡️ Chilli heat reactivates a dulled palate

While other drinks fall flat on a plane, Meexa actually thrives — and so will you.

💤 Lower ABV = Fresher You

Air travel already takes a toll on your body — pressurised cabins cause dehydration, fatigue, and jet lag. Traditional cocktails with high alcohol content amplify that fatigue and grogginess.

Meexa’s lower ABV (alcohol by volume) makes it the smarter sip. It delivers big flavour without the heavy buzz, helping you stay refreshed, alert, and less prone to post-flight hangovers.

🏖 Meexa: Your Holiday Mood, Bottled

Whether you're:

• ✈️ Flying out to a beach getaway
