Barron Trump, the youngest son of former President Donald Trump, is one of five co-founders of a new beverage company called Sollos [1, 2].
The venture marks a shift in business focus for Trump, who previously engaged in cryptocurrency investments [1, 3]. By entering the beverage market, the co-founder is targeting the growing consumer demand for yerba mate, a caffeinated herbal tea [1, 2].
Incorporated in the state of Florida, Sollos will produce and sell ready-to-drink herbal tea beverages [1, 2]. The company has secured a total capital investment of $1 million to support its operations [1].
According to company filings, Sollos consists of five co-founders and directors [1]. The business model focuses on the ready-to-drink segment of the tea market, a sector that has seen increasing growth as consumers seek alternatives to traditional energy drinks [1, 2].
The company planned to launch its first flavor in May 2024 [3]. While some reports categorized the business as an energy drink venture, the primary filings describe the product as a caffeinated herbal tea [1, 2].
This move into the beverage industry follows a pattern of diversifying interests. The transition from digital assets to physical consumer goods indicates a strategic pivot toward the health-conscious beverage sector [1, 3].

The launch of Sollos represents a transition for Barron Trump from speculative digital investments into the tangible consumer packaged goods (CPG) market. By selecting yerba mate, the company is positioning itself within the functional beverage trend, which emphasizes natural caffeine sources over synthetic energy drinks. This move suggests an attempt to capture a younger, health-oriented demographic in the U.S. beverage landscape.
