Fever-Tree Drinks scores 54/100 (Making progress) on SINK's independent climate assessment — scored from public data only, no company payment can change a number. Last verified May 2026.

That places Fever-Tree Drinks joint 50th of 637 companies scored, and joint 5th of 43 in Food & Beverage (non-meat).

Fever-Tree has credible SBTi-validated net-zero targets and switched away from offsets to insetting, but operational emissions rose 12% year-on-year to 2023. Supply chain Scope 3 reporting is incomplete, water strategy remains unquantified, and nature work is philanthropic rather than verified net-positive. The company's tiny absolute footprint limits material climate impact regardless of trajectory direction.
