Soda-Flavored Sparkling Waters

Phocus' Guilt-Free, Functional Sparkling Water Boasts a Cola Flavor

— June 1, 2020 — Lifestyle
Phocus is on a mission to redefine the functional sparkling water category with refreshing and energizing Natural, Peach, Grapefruit, Blood Orange, Yuzu & Lime and Cucumber flavors, plus its all-new Cola variety for soda lovers. Cola represents a cleaner alternative to soda and energy drinks, as it sets itself apart with a formula containing natural caffeine from tea and the amino acid L-theanine. The guilt-free Phocus Cola boasts notes of cinnamon, citrus, vanilla and caramel to appeal to the modern consumer.

As Phocus Co-Founder Tom O'Grady says, "Phocus Cola really makes you rethink what it means to be a sparkling water versus a soda by deriving the classic cola flavor from natural extracts, but maintaining the Phocus commitment to natural caffeine, refined carbonation, and most importantly, no bad-for-you additives."
