High Water sets itself apart as a hard seltzer "for those with a thirst for life" and it takes cues from the magic of the water's edge. The ever-flowing nature of water is captured in the visual details on the fully recyclable cans, which bring shoreline scenes to life with boats and elements of beach life.
Made with sparkling spring water from the Cotswolds, triple distilled vodka and natural fruit essences, High Water hard seltzer is low in calories, vegan, gluten-free and made without artificial ingredients. The products are available in refreshing flavors like Lemon and Elderflower or Mango and Peach, both of which come in at 5% ABV.
To reinforce its connection to the world's waterways, the brand dives 1% of all profits back to Just One Ocean.
