Which Shopify theme suits a drinks or canned beverage brand in 2026? Our top 5, from Pops and Local to Shapes, Savor and Release, with prices and features.

A beverage brand sells on flavour, colour and shelf appeal, from the design of each can to the look of its multipack, and most of that happens on a phone. The right Shopify theme shows each flavour clearly, handles age checks when you sell alcohol, and makes it easy to buy several flavours or a pack of cans at once. Here are the five themes the Trafik Plus team recommends for drinks brands in 2026.

What to look for in a Shopify theme for a beverage brand

  • Flavour-first product pages: room for colour, can artwork, ingredients and nutrition facts for each flavour.
  • Age verification: a must for beer, wine, spirits and hard seltzer brands.
  • Quick buy: shoppers often add several flavours or a mixed pack of cans to their cart, so adding from the collection page saves them clicks.
  • Mobile speed: most drinks shoppers arrive from social media, on their phone.
  • Flexible layouts: new flavours, launches and seasonal ranges need new pages, ideally without hiring a developer.

1. Pops

Pops is a Shopify theme designed by Trafik Plus for DTC and CPG (consumer packaged goods) brands that want a creative website, and drink brands are one of the niches it was made for. It's built with Theme Blocks, so you can nest and rearrange blocks to create as many layouts as you need: a page for a new flavour, a product launch or a seasonal range, without touching code. Like Local, it includes age verification, so alcohol brands can check their visitors' age without an extra app.

Pops is currently in review by the Shopify Theme Store team, so you can't install it yet. Discover the Pops theme.

2. Local

Local is a paid theme ($380 USD) by Krown Themes, made for food, beverage and local retail brands. It covers what a drinks brand needs out of the box: an age verification popup for restricted products, nutrition facts and ingredients on product pages, quick buy, a stock counter, pre-orders and in-store pickup.

Since version 4.2.0, Local also has a built-in events calendar, so you can sell tickets to tastings from your store. It comes with 5 presets, including one called Caffeine, and has a 98% positive rating from 96 reviews. See Local on the Shopify Theme Store(opens in a new tab).

3. Shapes

Shapes is a paid theme ($420 USD) by Switch, made for selling consumables. Its product pages can show sliding flavour scales and ingredient icons, and a comparison table helps shoppers choose between flavours. Products, from cans to bottles, can be framed in playful shapes such as clouds and hearts, with stickers, patterns and dividers to match a colourful brand.

It includes 5 presets, among them Fizz, as well as age verification, quick buy, pre-orders and in-store pickup, and holds a 99% positive rating from 86 reviews. Like Pops, Shapes is a good pick for brands that want a creative website, but Pops is the more complete of the two. See Shapes on the Shopify Theme Store(opens in a new tab).

4. Savor

Savor theme page on the Shopify Theme Store, with a desktop preview of its demo store

Savor is a free theme by Shopify for food and drink brands, part of Shopify's Horizon collection. Its bright, appetizing layouts and flexible product cards put ingredients front and center, and product pages can show ingredients, nutrition information, usage tips and product videos. It's built on Theme Blocks, so you can nest blocks to build new layouts, and it includes a stock counter, product badges, cross-selling and a slide-out cart.

It's a good way to launch a drinks store without paying for a theme. Its listing doesn't mention age verification, so alcohol brands will need an app for that. See Savor on the Shopify Theme Store(opens in a new tab).

5. Release

Release theme page on the Shopify Theme Store, with a desktop preview of its demo store

Release is a paid theme ($420 USD) by DigiFist. Its bold colour blocks and punchy sections help drinks that compete on visual identity stand out, from canned craft beer to ready-to-drink cocktails. It includes age verification, ingredients and nutrition information, product videos, countdown timers for launches and back-in-stock alerts for sold-out flavours. It has a 95% positive rating from 114 reviews. See Release on the Shopify Theme Store(opens in a new tab).

Which theme should you choose?

If you run a DTC or CPG drinks brand and want a creative website with layouts you build yourself, go for Pops. If you host tastings or events, Local lets you sell tickets from its built-in events calendar. Shapes is another creative option for playful, flavour-driven brands, though less complete than Pops. On a tight budget, start with Savor for free. And if your brand competes on bold visuals and launches, Release is worth a look. If you sell alcohol, Pops, Local, Shapes and Release all include age verification.

Whichever you pick, you can add any paid theme from the Shopify Theme Store to your store and customize it for free, and only pay when you publish it.
