Spicy-Sweet Sparkling Waters

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

A Candle Inspired Aura Bora's Watermelon Chili Sparkling Water

— June 19, 2024 — Lifestyle
At a time when there's been a notable surge in the popularity of "swicy" flavors—where consumers increasingly seek out food and drinks that blend sweetness with spiciness—Aura Bora launched a Watermelon Chili sparkling water in collaboration with P.F. Candle Co.

Inspired by the candle company's Watermelon & Chili candle scent, Aura Bora expertly blended the flavors of juicy, ripe watermelon with nose-tingling ancho chili to provide a sugar-free sipper. Like others from the offbeat beverage brand, this candle-inspired carbonated drink is uniquely identified with an animal character, splashy artwork and a haiku.

This Aura Bora flavor satisfies consumers' growing appetite for unique taste experiences that balance familiar sweet flavors with a hint of heat, appealing to adventurous palates looking for more than just refreshment.
Trend Themes
1. Swicy Flavor Craze - The growing popularity of combining sweet and spicy flavors is driving innovative new food and beverage products.
2. Candle-inspired Beverages - Drawing inspiration from candle scents to create unique flavor profiles in drinks is becoming a novel approach in the beverage industry.
3. Animal-themed Branding - Using animal characters and splashy artwork in branding helps to create distinctive and memorable product identities.
Industry Implications
1. Specialty Beverage - The specialty beverage industry is seeing a rise in creative, non-traditional flavor combinations that cater to adventurous consumers.
2. Aromatherapy Integration - Integrating scent profiles from the aromatherapy industry into food and drinks presents unique cross-industry partnerships.
3. Artistic Packaging - Artistic and visually appealing packaging is increasingly important for brands aiming to stand out on crowded shelves.
