The Appletiser Spritzer line of drinks have been announced by Coca-Cola European Partners as a new option for consumers who are looking for a flavorful and sparkling beverage in place of other mainstream alternatives.
The drinks are set to launch in the UK starting in March and will come in three flavor varieties including Apple & Blood Orange, Apple & Exotic Lime and Apple & Passion Fruit. Each one is a mix of 50% fruit juice and 50% sparkling water that hasn't been mixed with any additional sugar to make them a refreshing yet balance option to choose.
The Appletiser Spritzer line of drinks is also exempt from the soft drink tax in the UK thanks to the lack of added sugar and will be supported by an extensive marketing campaign.
