SVEDKA Vodka, an emerging canned vodka cocktail brand owned by Constellation Brands, has announced the launch of SVEDKA Tropics Tea Spritz, a new line of hard seltzers formulated for spring and summer drinking.
SVEDKA Tropics Tea Spritz blends SVEKDA Vodka with organic tea, natural tropical flavors, and sparkling water to deliver a crisp and refreshing seltzer unlike any other currently on the market. Currently, the new product is being offered in three flavors -- Orange Mango, Raspberry Kiwi, and Pineapple Guava -- all of which will feature a 5% ABV.
“With real ingredients and a lower ABV, SVEDKA Tropics provides a depth of flavor and a unique taste experience that sets it apart from other hard seltzers. The RTD canned category continues to grow at a rapid pace, and we believe SVEDKA Tropics offers a fantastic option for any occasion," said Billy Lagor, Senior Vice President of Brand Management at SVEDKA Vodka.
