Stewart’s Black Cherry Spiked Seltzer is a Champion of Flavor

— Found in southeastern Canada, the eastern United States, as far west as Texas, and in the mountains of the southwestern U.S., Mexico, and Guatemala, too, the black cherry grows on trees ranging from 25 to 110 feet tall that are graced with beautiful white flowers. The tree’s dark red fruit turns black from August through October. The black cherry is more robust than some other species. The wood of the black cherry tree is used for furniture and the bark is used to make wild cherry cough medicine. Even in the hard seltzer market, there is an expectation of greatness when it comes to black cherry flavored beverages. And living up to those lofty expectations is Stewart’s Black Cherry Spiked Seltzer.
