What You Should Know

LaCroix Orange Sparkling Water 12 Pack is the cheerful, calorie-free seltzer you spot stacked in the beverage aisle, usually on endcaps beside other sparkling waters, flavored seltzers, and cocktail mixers. Packaged in a slim 12-can carton (144 fl oz total), it lives alongside bottled waters, tonic waters and soda alternatives where shoppers compare citrus varieties and mix-and-match flavors. It fits casual grocery runs, brunch carts, picnic prep, and low-calorie party kits — the pick for someone building a soda-free cooler for road trips, barbecues, or an at-home happy hour. LaCroix projects a breezy, modern brand image: colorful cans and playful typeface appeal to health-conscious millennials and trend-aware consumers who want a fashionable zero-calorie refreshment without sweeteners. Labels lean into natural-sounding claims — 'naturally essenced,' non-GMO — and a clean ingredient list on the package creates a health-halo effect, though there is no organic certification. In plain terms, the product is industrially carbonated and flavored at a bottling facility, but its ingredient list is extremely short: carbonated water and natural essence. Sensory notes: bright citrus aroma, clean fizzy mouthfeel, and a light, bubbly texture that snaps on the palate; the orange is often more aromatic than syrupy, making it feel like a lighter alternative to soda. Rituals around LaCroix include cracking open a cold can at a desk, garnishing with a lemon wedge for brunch, or mixing into cocktails and mocktails. Its portability, zero-calorie claim, and colorful packaging make it a staple in contemporary American grocery culture.

Ultra-Processing Assessment

NOVA Score:4 / 4

Ultra-Processed

Why this score?

Despite a short ingredient list, the presence of industrially produced 'natural essenced' flavorings and the industrial carbonation/packaging process align this product with NOVA group 4 (ultra-processed) rather than a minimally processed beverage. It is manufactured rather than a fresh or simply processed food.
