'Melted Ice Pop,' the nostalgic seasonal flavor from Bubly sparkling water, is back on shelves for a limited time, just in time to beat the summer heat. Inspired by the red-white-and-blue popsicles of childhood summers, this flavor blends cherry, lime, and blue raspberry for a fruity mashup that’s light, refreshing, and perfect for warm-weather hydration. Like all Bubly products, Melted Ice Pop contains no calories or artificial sweeteners—just a crisp sparkle and a playful pop of flavour.
Available exclusively at Target, this fan-favorite flavor makes its return after quietly becoming a sleeper hit last year. Retailing in an 8-pack of 12 oz cans, it's the ideal addition to picnics, beach trips, and backyard BBQs.
Bubly leverages seasonal nostalgia and retailer partnerships to drive urgency and foot traffic by reintroducing Melted Ice Pop exclusively at Target. The launch reinforces bubly’s positioning in the flavor-forward sparkling water segment and taps into summer-centric consumer buying patterns.
