Waterloo Sparkling Water has expanded its line of carbonated water with the launch of two new variants. Cherry Limeade features a blend of lime citrus and red cherries with notes of grenadine, pomegranate and orange citrus. Meanwhile, the Blackberry Lemonade is described as a "twist on classic country lemonade", with blackberry notes layered in. The offerings are free of sugar, calories and sweeteners, and are made with non-GMO natural flavours and purified carbonated water. Adam Price, SVP of operations and flavour development lead at Waterloo, said: "We know that flavour goes beyond just taste. When developing new offerings, we're also perfecting the aroma, mouthfeel, carbonation and more, to ensure our consumers get the full experience they expect from us." He continued: "When creating our Cherry Limeade and Blackberry Lemonade innovations, we tinkered with the flavours for over 10 months to craft authentic flavours that transport you back to the carefree days of summer". Waterloo Cherry Limeade and Blackberry Lemonade sparkling waters are available at HEB, Central Market, Hy-Vee and Whole Foods, with additional distribution coming in April at Target and other major retailers.
