Made without the use of artificial sweeteners, the beverage contains a fresh-cut pineapple taste that is balanced out with a hint of creamy sweetness.

Pineapple joins the brand’s previously launched lime and mango flavors, which are made with all-natural ingredients and no artificial sweeteners, the company said.

“The hard seltzer category has seen incredible growth, with sales making up greater than 50% of the US ready-to-drink (RTD) category, and the success of our first two flavors have proven that fans are interested in a tequila-based seltzer option that doesn't compromise on taste,” Rashidi Hodari, the managing director of Tequila at Beam Suntory said. “On the heels of our lime and mango flavors, we’re proud to offer tequila fans and seltzer drinkers another new delicious offering in pineapple that showcases the versatility of authentic tequila flavor.”

Available in 12-oz. cans, Hornitos Tequila Seltzer in pineapple contains 112 calories per serving, 5% ABV and retails for $11.99 per four pack.
