Black Currant Lime
Black Currant LimeBlack Currant was named among the 20 fastest-growing flavors of the past three years.4 This small, dark purple berry, common in cocktails and liqueurs, brings a slightly bitter and tangy profile to the tongue but is often described as having a sweet-tart balance that is reminiscent of a grape-like flavor. Paired in harmony with the citrusy, refreshing, and zesty experience of Lime, this flavor combination has potential to grow in both the non-alcoholic and alcohol sector. With consumers paying more attention to prioritizing health & wellness in their diets, this unison also hits on the inherent health halo surrounding citrus, which has increased 16% as a mentioned menu ingredient from 2018 to 2021 in the beverage category.5
28.3% of consumers said they would be interested in trying Black Currant across all beverage categories.6
