Balanced Tartness Energy Drinks

Monster Ultra Strawberry Dreams Has Zero Sugar and More

— August 30, 2024 — Lifestyle
The Monster Ultra Strawberry Dreams energy drink is the one of the brand's latest new product developments in the UK that's formulated with taste, function and nutrition in mind.

The energy drink is making its debut in 500ml cans in both plain and price-marked single cans alongside four-can multipacks, which each highlight a creamy strawberry branding aesthetic. The energy drink is characterized by its sweet strawberry flavor that boasts balanced tartness to work well for a wide range of consumers who are seeking out something different. The drink also has a zero sugar recipe that responds to consumer demand for lifestyle-conscious alternative energy options.

Associate Director of Portfolio Development at Coca-Cola Europacific Partners GB Helen Kerr commented on the new Monster Ultra Strawberry Dreams energy drink saying, "Energy drinks are adding more value to the soft drinks category than any other segment[11]. And much of this is down to diversification and innovation, led by Monster, which contributed more than half of NPD value sales over the last year[12]. It’s a massive opportunity for retailers and there’s still room for significant growth. We’re confident that Monster Ultra Strawberry Dreams will build on this success. This new launch will tap into demand for the strawberry flavour and zero sugar energy drinks with the renowned Monster energy kick, so we’d recommend that retailers get stocked up.”
