Common flavors for canned aguas frescas and hard agua fresca drinks are tropical and fruit-forward options such as pineapple, watermelon, hibiscus, cucumber-lime, mango, strawberry, grapefruit, prickly pear, lime, and blood orange.
Product descriptions commonly note the use of real fruit juice (for example, real lime juice). Some listings mention natural flavors, and at least one specifically states no artificial flavors.
Product descriptions commonly position these drinks for casual, social, and outdoor settings such as pool days, tailgates, backyard hangs, house parties, and similar gatherings.
Descriptions specify aluminum beverage cans and list these products as ready-to-drink, typically sold in multi-can packs.
Alcohol strength is shown as percent alcohol by volume (e.g., 4.5% or 5% ABV) and is sometimes also presented as proof (for example, 4.5% ABV paired with a 9 proof label).
