The ciders include the Strawberry & Lime and Mixed Fruit flavors, which both come in with a 7% ABV that responds to consumers who are partial to a bolder taste and alcohol experience. The new flavors are expected to be right at home within the existing range that includes Apple and Pear varieties. Head of Marketing Rob Salvesen spoke on the new additions to the Kopparberg Sweet Vintage range saying, "Our Sweet Vintage Apple and Pear variants have been a standout success, resonating with younger consumers and bringing excitement back to [higher-ABV cider](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/funkin-double-shot). Extending this success to our most iconic flavours – Strawberry & Lime and Mixed Fruit – allows us to combine the unmistakable taste of Kopparberg with a fuller-bodied, higher-strength cider that fits perfectly with high-tempo occasions.” ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.5/10 - Popularity: 37% | Activity: 43% | Freshness: 55% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Drinking](https://www.trendhunter.com/drinking) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Bold Libations:** The trend towards bold-flavored alcoholic beverages highlights consumer desire for distinct and memorable taste experiences. - **High-abv Beverages:** There is an increasing demand for higher-alcohol-by-volume drinks that cater to those seeking more intense flavor profiles. - **Flavor Innovation:** Flavored cider innovations indicate a shift towards diverse flavor offerings that capture the interest of younger demographics. ### Where This Applies - **Alcoholic Beverages:** The alcoholic beverage sector is seeing a shift towards premium, bold-flavor products that can cater to adventurous palates. - **Flavor Technology:** Advancements in flavor technology can facilitate the creation of unique and appealing beverage profiles that satisfy evolving taste preferences. - **Event-driven Products:** High-tempo social events are driving the demand for products that align with celebratory and lively occasions, such as bold-flavored alcoholic options. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Botanical Mocktail-Like Beverages](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fentimans-botanically-brewed.md) - [Juicy Tropically Flavored Ciders](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/old-mout-mango-passionfruit.md) - [Low-Alcohol Summertime Ciders](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cornish-orchards-peach-apple.md) - [Kiwi Strawberry Hard Ciders](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kiwi-strawberry-hard-cider.md) - [Tangy Tropical Cider Refreshments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/peacock-cider-passion-fruit-guava.md) - [Ripened Apple Cider Libations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sweet-vintage-apple-cider.md) - [Dessert-Like Low-ABV Ciders](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/brothers-cider-flavors.md) - [Summertime Berry-Flavored Ciders](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/crumpton-oaks-cider.md) - [Refreshingly Light Summertime Ciders](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/crisp-apple-cider.md)
