Positioned as a “spirits-based hard seltzer”, Svedka Tropics Tea Spritz is infused with tea and fruit flavours. The line comprises Orange Mango, Raspberry Kiwi and Pineapple Guava SKUs.
Both the Orange Mango and Pineapple Guava are coloured with turmeric.
The RTD will be available in single cans or a variety pack of eight that contains four Pineapple Guava and two each of the remaining flavours with an SRP of US$19.99. A variety four-pack will also roll out at an SRP of $12.99.
“The RTD canned category continues to grow at a rapid pace,” said senior VP of brand management Billy Lagor. “We believe Svedka Tropics offers a fantastic option for any occasion.”
