Dash Water's Lime Sparkling Water Repurposes "Ugly Fruit"

— May 15, 2023 — Lifestyle
Dash Water's range of natural soft drinks newly expanded to include Lime Sparkling Water, which the brand calls its zestiest flavor to date. This beverage fueled by 100% natural flavor spotlights just three ingredients: fresh spring water, bubbles and wonky limes.

Free from sugar, sweeteners or calories, this refreshing sparkling beverage gives new life to limes that are lumpy and bumpy. Besides being a drink that's ready to be appreciated on its own, this Lime Sparkling Water is ready to be used to make tons of summery cocktails and mocktails.

This flavor is being delivered to consumers based on consumer demand, since the brand asked its fans to determine the variety that would be joining others like Cucumber, Lemon, Raspberry, Blackcurrant, Peach and Mango.
