Cold-pressed juice and wellness shots for hotels and resorts belong in more places than the breakfast buffet: grab-and-go markets, minibars, pool and beach service, spa lounges, fitness centers, meetings and welcome amenities. Because bottled juice needs no prep, one well-chosen lineup can serve every outlet on property.
This guide is part of our Wholesale Buyer Guides. It walks F&B, spa and rooms leaders through each outlet, pairs real Meraki products with each one, and covers the operational basics that keep a juice program running smoothly.
Why juice programs matter for Palm Beach hotels
The Palm Beaches set a tourism record of 10.6 million visitors from October 2024 through September 2025, according to Discover The Palm Beaches, which also reported the county ranked second in hotel revenue statewide (source). More guests means more breakfasts, more pool days and more in-room moments to plan for.
Wellness is part of why people travel. The Global Wellness Institute reports that wellness tourism expenditures reached $894 billion in 2024 (source). A thoughtful juice and shot program is a simple, visible way to meet those guests where they already are.
Where cold-pressed juice and shots fit on property
Breakfast buffet
Offer a fruit-forward juice and a green juice side by side so guests can choose. Bottled juice in an iced display also cuts down on pitcher prep.
Grab-and-go market
This is where bottled juice earns its keep. Stock a small, consistent range alongside gluten-free baked goods and snacks for guests heading to the beach or the airport.
Minibar and in-room
Small-format wellness shots and packaged snacks take little fridge space. Keep the in-room menu short and restock based on what actually sells.
Pool and beach service
Coconut-water blends and lemonade suit hot afternoons. Serve bottles in ice buckets so they stay cold in the sun.
Spa lounge
Guests waiting for or relaxing after a treatment appreciate a small glass of juice or a tonic and a light bite. We cover this outlet in more depth in our guide to refreshments for spas and studios.
Fitness center
Keep water front and center, then add a small cooler of juices for purchase or as a member perk.
Meetings and events
Swap the afternoon soda break for juice, shots and gluten-free bites. Our older post on healthy catering ideas for events has more menu inspiration.
Welcome amenities
A tonic trio or a bottle of juice with a gluten-free treat makes a colorful, plant-based welcome for VIPs and returning guests. If your team wants background on the shots themselves, our explainer on ginger shots covers what they are.

Operational tips for a hotel juice program
Buy juice that meets the federal standard
Juice sold to businesses must be processed to achieve a 5-log pathogen reduction, using pasteurization or an alternative such as high pressure (source). Ask every supplier how they meet it. Meraki’s juices are Certified HPP.
Receive, date and rotate
Check temperatures and date codes at receiving, put product away promptly, and rotate first in, first out in every outlet cooler. Set par levels by outlet so the minibar is not holding the same stock as the market.
Keep it cold everywhere
The FDA advises keeping refrigerators at or below 40°F (source). Apply your local health code and your property’s HACCP plan to buffet displays, pool buckets and minibar fridges alike.
Make allergens easy to find
The FDA’s nine major food allergens are milk, eggs, fish, crustacean shellfish, tree nuts, peanuts, wheat, soybeans and sesame, and packaged labels must identify them (source). When bottles are poured or snacks are plated, the label stays in the back, so post ingredient and allergen cards at the buffet and make them available to servers. Some plant-based snacks contain tree nuts, such as our macadamia-based Cheezie Chips.
Train staff on honest descriptions
Teach teams to describe ingredients and flavor rather than health benefits. It keeps menus accurate and guests informed.

FAQ
Can hotels serve cold-pressed juice at a buffet?
Yes. Buy juice from a supplier that meets the FDA’s 5-log requirement, keep it cold, rotate stock and post ingredient and allergen information for guests.
Which outlets sell the most bottled juice?
That depends on your property and guest mix. Start with a small range in the market and pool, track sell-through for a few weeks, then adjust pars by outlet.
Are wellness shots good for minibars?
Their small 3 oz size fits tight minibar fridges well. Keep the selection short and restock based on actual consumption.
