These new [Rubicon](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rubicon-pineapple-still) drinks are being launched by A.G. Barr in the UK to offer consumers a way to quench their thirst, while also enjoying premium flavors. The drinks come in the form of the Rubicon Spring Pineapple Passion and the Rubicon Raspberry & Pineapple Sparkling, which are both launching this month. The Rubicon Spring Pineapple Passion is being made available in 500ml bottles, while Rubicon Sparkling Raspberry & Pineapple will come in 330ml, 500ml and two-liter servings

Marketing Director at A.G. Barr Adrian Troy spoke on the new Rubicon drinks saying, "Taste remains the number one motivation for shoppers to choose a soft drink, and traditional flavours alone aren’t meeting all consumer needs anymore, new flavour combinations are driving the growth. We’re confident that our two new [tropical Rubicon products](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/schweppes-tropical-soda) will provide incremental sales opportunities for retailers, particularly as we head into the peak summer sales period where Rubicon sales more than double ([IRI](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/white-chocolate-toffifee))."
