We introduce the construct of liquid consumption, and explicate what its defining characteristics are. We outline the boundary conditions of liquid consumption, and explain why a liquid perspective is needed within consumer research and how it will transform key constructs, such as materiality, the nature of relationships, and ethical consumption.
