PepsiCo Beverages U.S. brand bubly has announced the nationwide launch of two limited-edition mocktail-inspired sparkling waters: bubly Berry Sparkle Sangria and bubly Paradise Paloma.
Debuting across US retail and digital storefronts on 7 September 2026, the short-run platform translates classic cocktail recipes into unsweetened carbonated soft drinks formulated with zero calories, zero alcohol, and no artificial sweeteners.
The release enters the flavoured sparkling water category as non-alcoholic drink alternatives and mindful drinking habits continue to gain traction among adult consumers seeking social beverage options without alcohol.
Mocktail-Inspired Flavour Portfolio
The product development translates popular mixology favourites into single-serve canned sparkling water, engineered to bridge late-summer and early-autumn social occasions.
The two limited-time offerings entering commercial distribution include:
🍷 bubly Berry Sparkle Sangria: A wine-inspired sparkling water profile combining flavours of raspberry, lemon, orange, strawberry, and lime.
🍹 bubly Paradise Paloma: A citrus-forward formulation pairing tangy grapefruit and zesty lime flavours.
Michael Smith, Vice President of Marketing for bubly sparkling water at PepsiCo Beverages U.S., stated that the brand prioritises flavour variety that maintains taste expectations, noting that the release provides distinct flavour profiles whether consumers are seeking crisp autumn fruit notes or extending summer citrus preferences.
Nutritional Metrics:Â Formulated with zero calories, zero grams of sugar, and no artificial sweeteners.
The duo builds on the previous commercial performance of bubly’s mocktail-inspired line extensions, which have included seasonal rotations such as bubly Bellini Bliss, Tiki Sunrise, and Mojito Breeze.
Retail Availability and Packaging
The limited-time mocktail offerings have commenced physical and digital distribution across US retail networks:
Packaging Configuration:Â Formatted in 8-packs of 12-ounce cans.
Distribution Channels:Â Available nationwide in brick-and-mortar grocery, mass, and convenience stores, alongside online retail platforms, while supplies last.
The seasonal release equips retail stockists with a functional, zero-proof beverage platform designed to capture seasonal impulse purchasing and social entertaining occasions throughout the autumn trading period.
