LETTER FROM OUR PRESIDENT AND CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER

Dear Zevia Stockholders:

The 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”) of Zevia PBC, a Delaware public benefit corporation (“Zevia” or the “Company”), will be held virtually on Wednesday, June 10, 2026, at 9:00 a.m., Pacific Time. The following Notice of 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders and Proxy Statement provide important information about the meeting and will serve as your guide to the business to be conducted at the meeting.

If you are a stockholder of Zevia common stock (or are a proxy holder) as of the close of business on April 15, 2026, you may participate in and vote at the Annual Meeting by visitingwww.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/ZVIA2026 and entering in the 16-digit Control Number included in your Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials (the “Notice”) proxy card (if you received a printed copy of the proxy materials), or in the instructions you received via email (including a voting instruction form). You may log in beginning at 8:45 a.m. Pacific Time, on Wednesday, June 10, 2026.

At the Annual Meeting, you will be asked to vote on (i) the election of two Class II director nominees and (ii) the ratification of the selection of Deloitte & Touche LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026. The Board of Directors of the Company has determined that the matters to be considered at the Annual Meeting are in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders and unanimously recommends a vote “FOR” each director nominee in Proposal 1 and “FOR” Proposal 2. Such other business will be transacted as may properly come before the Annual Meeting. Additional details regarding participation in the Annual Meeting, the business to be conducted, and information about Zevia that you should consider when you vote your shares are described in the Proxy Statement. The Notice also provides instructions on how to vote online and how to receive a paper copy of the proxy materials by mail.

We have elected to make our proxy materials for the Annual Meeting available to you via the internet, pursuant to the “notice and access” rules promulgated by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. On or about April 23, 2026, we intend to begin sending to our stockholders the Notice containing instructions on how to access our Proxy Statement for the Annual Meeting and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025. We encourage you to read the Proxy Statement prior to the Annual Meeting. By making these materials available to you online, we aim to provide our stockholders with easy and convenient access while also reducing the environmental impact of printing hard copies.

It is important that your shares be represented and voted at the Annual Meeting. Whether or not you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, we encourage you to submit your proxy as soon as possible.

On behalf of management and our Board of Directors, we thank you for your continued support of Zevia.

Sincerely,

Amy E. Taylor President and Chief Executive Officer April 23, 2026
