TORONTO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Whether you’re sweating it out in a spin class or just sweating trying to catch the train, life gets thirsty. To help Canadians get quenched, Glaceau is launching a brand-new hydrating beverage, vitaminwater active. And it’s a game changer! Perfect for those who are health and wellness minded, vitaminwater active is made with all-natural colours and flavours, is sweetened with cane sugar, is an excellent source of antioxidant vitamins c + e, and has 3 b vitamins. It also contains 10 per cent coconut water and a naturally-sourced electrolyte from sea salt. The new offering is available in three refreshing and delicious flavours – Strawberry Black Cherry, Orange Mango, and Lemon Lime.
“vitaminwater active is a truly innovative product offering for the Canadian market,” says Carolyn Harty, director of marketing for Coca-Cola in Canada. “Many people know and love the Glaceau beverages, and the launch of vitaminwater active follows in the family tradition of delivering beverages with natural credentials and vitamins that consistently knock the competition out of the park. A great new workout partner, vitaminwater active is for those who sweat, but not too seriously!”
Glaceau vitaminwater is the #1 enhanced water brand. As Canadians consume more sports drinks, launching a hydrating beverage such as vitaminwater active, made with all-natural colours and flavours, was an obvious next step for the well-loved brand.
