Review: Sparkling Ice Spiked Hard Seltzer

Sparkling Ice Spiked Hard Seltzer was released August 2020 in select markets including Tampa, Des Moines, Minneapolis, Buffalo, Seattle, Portland Oregon, and Southern California.  It is now starting to rollout Nationwide.  It is available in four flavors, Lemonade Refresher, Ruby Fizz, Strawberry Citrus Smash, and Cherry Lime Chiller.  Sparkling Ice Spiked is part of the Talking Rain Company.  Founded in 1987 by Pete Hiskin and John Stevens.  The two found a group of investors and soon sold the brand to them.  Success did not happen overnight but their Sparkling Ice brand is now the best selling sparkling water brand in the US, ahead of both the La Croix and Pepsi’s Bubly brand.  While Sparkling Ice is made with 1% juice, flavors from natural sources, vitamins and antioxidants, Sparkling Ice Spiked Hard Seltzer’s listed ingredients include carbonated water, alcohol from cane sugar, natural flavors, citric acid, tripotassium, and sucralose.  Sucralose is best known as Splenda.  Weighing in with 80 calories and 4% alcohol, Sparkling Ice Spiked is the lightest hard seltzer on the market today.
