Pinnacle Vodka has introduced Pinnacle Light & Ripe. The brand’s new range offers vodka in fruit-forward flavors with fewer calories and zero sugar. Crafted with natural ingredients, Pinnacle Light & Ripe comes in two flavor choices, Apricot Honeysuckle and Guava Lime. Each 1.5 oz serving of the spirits contain fewer than 75 calories.
“Pinnacle Light & Ripe strikes the ideal balance between bold flavors and quality ingredients that can be enjoyed any day of the week,” says Ivan Hidalgo, Senior Marketing Director of Regional Brands at Beam Suntory. “We made it a priority to incorporate natural ingredients and exclude sugar to create the perfect vodka that allows vodka drinkers to have it all. As a brand consistently known for its excellent value and taste, this latest innovation is no exception and is an exciting addition to our Pinnacle portfolio.”
Pinnacle Light & Ripe Apricot Honeysuckle delivers an aroma of lush apricots balanced with delicate flavor accents. The palate offers flavors of bright apricot elevated by honeysuckle undertones, this variant provides a smooth finish with traces of refreshing apricot.
The Guava Lime flavor features aroma hints of ripe tropical fruit and fresh lime zest. The palate offers notes of juicy guava complexed by lime peel and a touch of sweetness, this option delivers a finish of lingering fruit notes with a pleasant sweetness.
