In the increasingly competitive adult beverage industry, one regional brand has shone through with a commitment to quality of ingredients, purity of flavor and authenticity. Blending the trend of themed variety hard seltzer variety packs like lemonade and tea – VIVE is thrilled to offer something that deviates from the norm. With the legacy of acclaimed Pumpkin Spice Hard Seltzer at the brand's back, VIVE will release VIVE Punch Hard Seltzer to Kroger, Meijer, Walmart and Target store shelves throughout Ohio, Kentucky, Tennessee and Indiana this March 2021. At an SRP of $15.99 for each 12-pack, shoppers will be able to enjoy pure and naturally sweetened flavors like Original Punch, Southern Punch, Sunrise Punch and Tropical Punch.

VIVE Punch allows us to speak to a broad audience… and 'wow' them with the flavor in the meanwhile."
