Starfruit Lemonade by Polar

The Can

Polar has a series of Seltzerades made with Sparkling Water. Is it confusing? Yes. Are the boundaries between Seltzer Water and Sparkling Water nearly meaningless? Possibly? This can, like Polar’s other seltzerades, features simple illustrations and flattering horizontal stripes giving them a distinctly summer aesthetic.

Guilt free, baby!

Notes

While I personally cannot claim to know what starlight tastes like from firsthand experience, I believe this can of bubble water gets pretty close. This can has an approachable crack that would not be disruptive in a library or open-plan office setting. Popping the top releases a fresh aroma with a hint of lemon. On the palate, Polar’s big bubs dance on the tongue delivering a burst of star shine with every sip. It nearly creates an irresistible urge to recklessly drive a snowmobile across the meadow at a wealthy relative’s home. The intrusive thoughts can’t win; not if you want to be invited back. Close your eyes and imagine, but go no further.

Overall reaction

It’s bright and fresh. It’s pretty good!
