“Since Sprite Cranberry launched in the United States, we’ve had countless requests from fans asking when it will come to canada. Canadians are looking for Sprite Cranberry’s refreshing flavor, and we;re listening,” says Coca-Cola Ltd. vice-president of the sparkling business unit Michael Samoszewski. “The crisp taste of lemon-lime and cranberry complements the flavors of Thanksgiving and the holiday season. We know that Canadians will love serving Sprite Cranberry to their family and guests.”
Sprite Cranberry is caffeine-free, made with 100 percent natural flavors and is perfect either as a stand-alone beverage or mixed in specialty holiday-themed recipes.
