Polar Seltzer, Black Cherry

Polar Seltzer Black Cherry is presented as a crisp, no-calorie sparkling water that lives where shoppers expect: the sparkling water / mixer aisle near other calorie-free seltzers, club-size waters, and cocktail mixers. You might also spot single-serve bottles in refrigerated grab-and-go sections. It’s the kind of product picked up for weekend brunches, post-workout rehydration, or long road trips when you want fizz without sugar. The brand leans into a heritage, family-made story — invoking nostalgia and an artisanal sparkle — aimed at adults who want a premium, health-conscious alternative to soda. Label characteristics play to that image: bold claims like “Natural Flavors,” “NO sodium,” and a family history since 1882 create a health-halo and artisanal vibe; there’s no kid-focused branding, no organic seal, and no sweetener claims because sweetness is absent. Sensory notes emphasize tiny, long-lasting bubbles and a clean, crisp mouthfeel; black cherry is described as sweet-tart aromatics rather than sugary taste. Packaging for the 33.8 fl oz size is typically a single-serve bottle (often PET) designed for sharing or multi-sip occasions, with a ritual of cracking open and sipping slowly or using it as a mixer in a cocktail or mocktail. Processing context: this is water carbonated under pressure with concentrated natural flavor essences added — not just plain water, but also not a sugared beverage. In grocery culture it occupies the middle ground: a practical, everyday indulgence marketed as a thoughtfully crafted, refreshing choice when you want bubbles without calories.
