SunnyD launches new line of hard seltzers

SunnyD, the classic orange drink with a "taste of sunshine in every sip," is getting a boozy boost in its new line of beverages.

The brand is releasing a new vodka seltzer to be sold exclusively at Walmart, the company announced in a news release. You can find them at select stores starting March 11.

SunnyD was first developed in 1963, "when two Florida dads looked around an orange grove, and thought, ‘good, but we can do better,’" the release said.

The tangy orange drink grew a dedicated fan base in the ‘90s and was acquired by Harvest Hill Beverage Company in 2017.

"Many have told us that they enjoy SunnyD as a mixer and asked for this product,"  Ilene Bergenfeld, chief marketing officer for Harvest Hill Beverage Company, said in a prepared statement. "So, we looked at the hard seltzer category, and thought, good, but we can do better. And SunnyD Vodka Seltzer was born."
