Trader Joe’s Sparkling Pressed Apple Juice Beverage is made with a blend of Braeburn, Gala, and Granny Smith apples, which gives it a taste that is slightly sweet and tart. Although there are many apple-based beverages on the market this one is said to have a truly distinct mouthfeel. Trader Joe's notes that its new beverage is "not quite juice and not quite cider," offering a formula that's 70% cold-pressed apple juice and 30% sparkling water. As such, it is said to be a less sweet alternative to regular apple juice, but also an indulgent and crisp choice over still drinks. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.2/10 - Popularity: 28% | Activity: 31% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Health](https://www.trendhunter.com/health) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Sparkling Beverages:** Opportunity for creating innovative sparkling beverages using unique fruit blends. - **Alternative Fruit Juices:** Opportunity for developing fruit juices that offer a distinct mouthfeel and taste. - **Hybrid Beverages:** Opportunity for combining different beverage categories to create unique and indulgent choices. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Beverage Manufacturing:** Opportunity for beverage manufacturers to expand their product lines with sparkling fruit juices. - **Juice and Cider Industry:** Opportunity for the juice and cider industry to innovate by offering less sweet and more refreshing options. - **Retail and Distribution:** Opportunity for retailers to diversify their product offerings by stocking unique and indulgent hybrid beverages. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Sparkling Pomegranate Teas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sparkling-white-tea-with-pomegranate-juice.md) - [Sparkling Guava Juices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sparkling-guava-juice.md) - [Sparkling Pomegranate Drinks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sparkling-pomegranate-punch-beverage.md) - [Organic Apple Juice Boxes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/organic-apple-juice-beverage.md) - [Sparkling Rosé Tea Beverages](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/organic-sparkling-ros-tea-beverage.md) - [Honeycrisp Apple-Based Ciders](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/honeycrisp-apple-cider.md) - [Sparkling Pink Lemonades](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/french-market-sparkling-pink-lemonade.md) - [Clementine-Infused Sparkling Waters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sparkling-water-cranberry-clementine.md) - [Mandarin Orange Sparkling Waters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mandarin-orange-sparkling-water.md)
