Tami started with a simple realization: We couldn't find a drink in stores that captured the flavor we grew up with. Tamarind is a staple across Latin America, the Caribbean, and South Asia — sweet-tart, refreshing, alive on the tongue — yet its flavor is largely absent in the U.S. beverage aisle.
When you can find tamarind in a bottle, it's usually drowned in artificial flavors, loaded with sugar, or made by brands that treat the fruit like a novelty rather than a tradition. Nothing on the shelf reflected the way we actually wanted to drink it — clean, bold, and true to the fruit.
"Tamarind is a flavor that belongs in everyone's hand. It just needed to be made the right way."— Troy & Maria, Co-Founders
So we started building Tami™ — a clean-label tamarind soda made with real fruit and simple, natural ingredients. We're working with formulators who respect the pulp, sourcing partners who care about the supply chain, and designers who understand that the flavor deserves a brand as bold as it is.
Tami is for anyone who already loves tamarind and is tired of compromising — and for everyone who hasn't tasted it yet and is about to find their new favorite. This isn't just a soda. It's a flavor finally getting its moment.
