At a time when people can't seem to get enough sparkling water, Spindrift is introducing a new limited-edition tasting bo that shares an assortment of refreshing flavors and the newest flavor releases. The Drifter Pack: A Spindrift Tasting Experience takes the form of a 12-pack with each of the brand's flavors, plus what the brand has dubbed the "sip-of-the-season," Spindrift Pineapple.
As its name suggests, the tasting box is designed to offer an experience and people are encouraged to gather a "panel of in-person or virtual tasters" so that color, aroma, tasting notes, mouthfeel and flavor can be appreciated. After determining their favorite flavor, people are invited to go online and share their findings with the brand on social media.
