Bristol’s Best Beverage Company Adds a New Flavor
Bristol’s Best Crème Soda adds Black Cherry to Their Repertoire
Columbia, S.C. (July 14, 2016) – Bristol’s Best Crème Soda now has four flavors: Regular,
Toffee, Vanilla, and now, Black Cherry.
This organic, nonalcoholic Black Cherry flavor comes in the classic regular, and zero-calorie
flavors. The new flavor will be on shelves in prominent grocery stores in the U.S. in time for
Thanksgiving.
The Black Cherry flavor is made from black cherries harvested in the Republic of
Madagascar, where Bristol’s Beverage Company is opening a new plant. Each can of Black
Cherry contains one-half the caffeine of a can of Red Bull, as well as essential vitamins and
minerals, to restore electrolytes and provide energy.
Bristol’s Beverage Company CEO Sir Chauncey Wicket says, “We are very excited about our
new Black Cherry flavor, it has a special zip to it that we felt was missing from a Bristol’s
Crème Soda experience.”
Bristol’s Best Crème Soda will be sponsoring a bartending contest in Chicago for the best
drink made with Bristol’s Crème Soda. Black Cherry will also appear on an upcoming
episode of Chopped as a mystery ingredient in the dessert basket.
Winning drink recipes and dessert recipes using Bristol’s Black Cherry Crème Soda will be
published on Bristol Beverage Company’s website on the “Party with Bristol’s” page.
To highlight the new Black Cherry flavor, the Arsenal Soccer team will paly the 2017 season
with Black Cherry colored uniforms. In addition, the 2017 America’s Cup Entry, High and
Dry will sport Black Cherry colored sails.
