Lunar is expanding its range of Asian-American craft hard seltzers with an all-new Heritage line that plays with the flavors of popular Asian foods. The range was developed with the aid of New York-based chefs and local restaurant owners so that people have a new way to appreciate the brand as first and only Asian American craft hard seltzer made with quality fruits and ingredients from Asia.
The company got its start in 2020 by mashing up the ever-growing craft seltzer category with yuzu juice, lychee and maesil plum syrup sourced from Asia. Now, a limited-edition line is sharing three all-new flavors: Tamarind & Rice Paddy Herb, Pineapple Cake and Mango & Chili Salt.
