(WXYZ) — It’s a new frontier for Blake’s Hard Cider — they’ve introduced their first non-alcoholic beverage they’re calling Sorta Pop.
According to a press release, Sorta Pop is billed as a probiotic soda that is low calorie, low sugar, and gluten and caffeine free.
Sorta Pop will reportedly hit independent store shelves in mid-January with three flavors: tangerine, strawberry-watermelon-cucumber, and lemon lime.
Blake’s said Sorta Pop is made with real fruit and has “over a million probiotics per can which may support digestive balance and gut health.”
“Coming from Blake’s 77 years’ experience growing, picking, and pressing our harvest, exploring a healthy, alternative beverage made with real fruit is a natural extension for us,” said Chelsea Cox, BHC Director of Marketing and Product Development, in a press release. “As consumers become more selective and educated in their beverage choices, that shift makes way for a better-for-you beverage like Sorta Pop that delivers great flavor, bubbles, plus health benefits.”
Distribution expansion is expected come spring, according to the company.
