Hard seltzer

Hard Seltzer (English for "hard sparkling water") is an alcoholic drink that is particularly widespread in the USA and is based on carbonated water and alcohol , to which fruit flavor is often added. The designation hard is intended to indicate that the drink contains alcohol. The alcohol content is roughly the same as that of beer and is usually between around 4 and 6%.

The most successful hard seltzer brand in 2019 was White Claw , which was forecast to have sales of $ 1.5 billion.
