Small Business Saturday always feels a little personal to me. It’s the one day of the year when the world zooms out from the big-box chaos and remembers the magic of the little guys the shops built with heart, community, and a dream that started around a kitchen table… or in my case, in the water aisle of a grocery store.
Salacious Drinks isn’t just an online marketplace for natural, single-source waters. It’s a love letter to the world’s most fascinating springs, aquifers, and volcanic sources — and to the people who care about what they drink. And today? We’re celebrating YOU, the community that keeps this world of fine water alive.
Let’s dive into what’s happening this Small Business Saturday and why this is the perfect moment to learn all about us.
🌊 Who We Are at Salacious Drinks
We’re your home for premium, natural, single-source bottled waters the kind of water that comes from a story, not a factory. Every bottle on our site comes from a spring, an artesian well, a glacier, a volcano, or another naturally occurring source shaped by time and geology.
We ship nationwide, offer free local delivery around Northern Virginia and DC, and curate collections that help you explore the world through hydration. If it’s water with character, terroir, and soul… we’re your people.
And now that I’m officially a certified water sommelier, I’m bringing even more education and storytelling into every box, tasting, and brand spotlight.
💙 Our Small Business Saturday Highlights
1️⃣ The Black Friday / Small Business Saturday Deal: Clear Alaskan Glacier Water
This is the BIG one this weekend.
Clear Alaskan Glacier Water one of the cleanest, coldest, naturally sourced waters from the Last Frontier is on sale:
✨ Only $24 for a 1L case (PET bottles)
✨ 2-for-$50 on the aluminum cans
This is glacier-fed water with incredible purity and a crisp mineral profile — refreshing, smooth, and absolutely the kind of source-driven hydration people fall in love with once they try it. The aluminum cans are perfect for stocking up for the holidays, guest baskets, or anyone who wants a premium grab-and-go option.
2️⃣ Our Curated Water Boxes — Your Passport to the Fine Water World
Whether you’re gifting, learning, or tasting your way around the globe, our premade boxes are honestly one of my favorite parts of the business.
📦 The Fine Waters Society Box
A tasting journey through internationally recognized premium waters.
It’s designed for people curious about terroir, mineral content, and how water pairs with food — a perfect intro box for anyone interested in becoming a water sommelier (or drinking like one).
📦 The American Brands Box
A celebration of homegrown hydration.
From volcanic sources to ancient aquifers, America has some remarkable natural waters — and this box showcases the best of them. A patriotic pour for the holidays and a great conversation starter at any dinner table.
