So by now you MUST have heard about Hard Seltzers?
If not - a hard seltzer is:
“hard = alcohol, and
seltzer = carbonated water”.
Alcoholic sparkling flavoured water. Sounds amazing, right? So, White Claw has now come over to the UK after taking over America for the last year or so. However, the Brits have not let us down and there are plenty of UK based companies creating their own. Here's The Lifestyle Guides top picks from the five that we tested!
Created by two brothers, Dean and Ryan, Served Drinks aimed to create an alcoholic drink option with complete transparency when it came to their ingredients. Sourcing natural ingredients such as wonky fruit from the heart of Scotland's Strathmere Valley (LOVE) and British spring water from rural Staffordshire, this refreshing drink really hits the spot. At 4% ABV, this fabulous drink contains just 57 calories, zero sugar and is made with the finest plant-based ingredients, all while being gluten free.
Our taste testers have had the pleasure of sampling both the Served Raspberry and the Lime flavours... here's what they had to say...
"Uniquely different" and "Really refreshing" and "Smells delicious" and "Another one please!"
Perfect for drinking straight from the can or dressing up with lots of ice and fruit, try for yourself! #PureInEverySense
