As the name suggests, each can of the cider contains just 100 calories to make them the perfect refreshment for consumers looking to restrict their alcohol and calorie intake.

Speaking specifically about the new 100 Cal Slim Cans, Heineken VP of Emerging Brands, Jessica Robinson, said, "With only 100 calories per can, our new 8.5oz size creates a better-for-you, full-flavored and fast-selling option. Strongbow Slim Cans are a ‘top 20’ concept for us on purchase intent, liking, uniqueness and believability, and we’re including our new dry pear in the variety pack to meet the growing popularity of pear flavor products in the grocery channel. We’re putting our focus here to source new business from the booming canned wine and hard seltzer segments."
