Cold & fizzy, Real fruit, New Zealand Mānuka honey, Lightly sweet, A crisp little kick
From New Zealand
Why Mānuka?
Mānuka is a native New Zealand shrub. Its honey is warmer and deeper than everyday honey, so it sits under the fruit instead of shouting over it. It’s what sweetens every can.
Five real-fruit flavors

Nana started the drink.
In the 1970s, Fiona’s mum Irene mixed fruit, honey, apple cider vinegar and water at home. Fiona grew up drinking it. Sodakick is that idea with bubbles — inherited, not invented by a marketing department.
Nana’s recipe, now sparkling

Real fruit
Fruit purée for bright, juicy flavor.
