"We're constantly working to expand our product offerings to meet consumer demand," said Chris Hall, CEO of Talking Rain Beverage Co.

Our distribution network has been particularly excited for the introduction of this immediate consumption solution."

Perfectly balanced with just the right amount of fizz, Sparkling Ice +Caffeine retails for $1.89 per can and will be rolling out into retailers nationwide starting in January 2019.
