After 2020 was a rather depressing year overall, here is some good news: After craft beer, another drink with a lot of potential has found its way to us from the United States. The craft beer movement has shaken up the German beverage market and caused a major rethink in the beer scene. The next American drink to cause a sensation is the so-called hard seltzer. What is no longer a novelty in the USA is still almost an insider tip in Germany.
But what is behind this young trend?
Hard Seltzer is also called spiked or hard water and is basically water with a shot. But it's not quite as simple as it sounds: Hard Seltzer is brewed in a sophisticated process. It's almost like beer, except that the ingredients hops and malt are missing. The Seltzer is usually also mixed with refreshing flavors. The result is a light, fluffy soft drink with an alcohol content of around 5.0%. Many varieties of spiked water contain no sugar at all and are also low in calories.
Germany's pioneer in the field of hard seltzer is the young company HOLY Drinks. Robert Iken and his team have spent the last few months feverishly refining recipes and brewing everything they can to bring the first German spiked water to market. The effort has paid off: HOLY Drinks is the first German company to bring out four varieties of hard seltzer, making it the absolute frontrunner.
HOLY Drinks presents the excited audience with the varieties Cranberry , Cucumber Lime , Grapefruit and Lemon Ginger . All creations are the result of natural fermentation and impress with more than just their crystal-clear appearance. The Spiked Water from HOLY Drinks is vegan and gluten-free and therefore extremely contemporary. The great aroma in the drink comes from purely natural ingredients and makes the Hard Seltzer an absolute delight.
Spiked Water is the ideal alternative to beer if you want something light, fresh and tasty.
