CHICAGO, May 24, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Sauza® Tequila today announced the launch of Sauza Agua Fuerte™, a tequila-based, ready-to-drink spiked sparkling water hitting store shelves this summer season. Agua Fuerte is made with Sauza® Silver Tequila, which has a taste profile of fresh, green notes, and natural fruit essence to create a light, refreshing cocktail with no artificial flavors or sweeteners.

Crafted with clear, sparkling water and a real tequila base, Sauza Agua Fuerte taps into the rising demand for refreshing and ready-to-drink cocktails. This newest ready-to-drink product from Sauza Tequila is light in sweetness and calories and full on crisp fruit and agave taste.

Sauza Agua Fuerte™ is available in three natural flavors:

• Lime – A classic tequila pairing, Sauza Agua Fuerte™ Lime provides the ultimate refreshment on a hot summer day without the hassle of cutting lime slices for cocktails
• Grapefruit – Inspired by the flavors of a Paloma, Sauza Agua Fuerte™ Grapefruit is a perfect option for those looking for a tart, natural flavor
• Mango – A popular pairing in Mexico, Sauza Agua Fuerte™ Mango offers a slightly sweet mango flavor that pairs perfectly with the tequila base
