Lone River has expanded its beverage lineup with the launch of the 'Lemonade Splash' variety pack, a collection of lemonade-flavored hard seltzers designed for lighter, casual consumption. Each can is "lightly carbonated, gluten-free, and contains 100 calories or fewer, with no more than three grams of sugar, aligning with consumer interest in lower-calorie alcoholic options."
The brand’s offerings are inspired by the flavors and culture of Far West Texas. Lone River’s 'Original Ranch Water' is based on the classic cocktail and made with organic agave nectar and lime, while its Ranch Water variety pack includes 'Spicy,' 'Blackberry,' and 'Prickly Pear' flavors.
The Lemonade Splash pack introduces four lemonade-based options, 'Classic Agave,' 'Prickly Pear,' 'Hot Honey,' and 'Blueberry,' adding a citrus-forward extension to the portfolio. The release emphasizes flavor variety while maintaining the brand’s focus on balance, drinkability, and moderation.
