The Schweppes Tropical Soda is the brand's new purple-hued sparkling refreshment being added to its portfolio in the UK that promises to provide impressive flavor for consumers this spring and summer. The soda is crafted with a blend of guava, dragonfruit and hibiscus flavors, and has an eye-catching purple hue that will immediately grab the attention of shoppers. The soda is arriving later this month and is positioned as a great option to sip in the heat, but could also work well as a mixer for alcoholic refreshments.
Vice President, Commercial Development at Coca-Cola Europacific Partners GB Rob Yeomans spoke on the Schweppes Tropical Soda saying, "Schweppes Tropical Soda is an exciting new addition to our portfolio, created to tap into growing demand for vibrant, flavourful drinks that stand out on shelves. Whether it’s used to elevate mixed drinks or offered as a vibrant standalone serve, it’s a versatile option that gives our customers a new way to tap into seasonal demand and premium drinking experiences.”
