LaCroix Maden Suyu Aromaları: Mevcut, Yeni ve Üretimi Durdurulan Her Aroma

LaCroix is one of the most recognized names in flavored sparkling water, made by National Beverage Corporation and sold in more than 25 flavors across the US. Every can is built the same way: carbonated water and what LaCroix calls “natural essence,” with zero calories, zero sugar, zero sodium and no artificial sweeteners.

The brand actually started in La Crosse, Wisconsin, back in 1980 — not in France, despite the French flavor names and the accent people love to argue about (it’s pronounced “luh CROY,” not the French way). National Beverage bought the brand in 1992 and has grown it into one of the biggest names in the category since.

Current LaCroix Flavors — Full Breakdown

LaCroix’s lineup covers a lot of ground. Here is every flavor sold right now, reviewed honestly by category.

🍋 Citrus

Lemon is the flavor most people picture when they think of LaCroix sparkling water. It’s bright and clean, closer to a lemon rind than lemon juice, and the carbonation keeps it from feeling flat or one note. A reliable pick if you want something crisp with your food rather than a drink that pulls focus.

Lime is the fan favorite of the whole LaCroix lineup, and taste tests keep landing on it as the top pick. It’s sharp, a little zesty, and works just as well on its own as it does mixed into a cocktail. If you’re new to the brand and want one can to decide whether LaCroix is for you, start here.

Key Lime takes the standard lime profile and softens it, landing closer to key lime pie than a straight citrus squeeze. There’s a rounder, slightly sweeter edge to it compared to regular Lime — a good pick for anyone who finds the original a bit too sharp.

Tangerine is fresh, light, and genuinely tastes like tangerine rather than a vague orange stand-in. It’s one of the flavors people are surprised by once they try it, since the fruit character comes through more clearly here than in a lot of the other citrus options.

Orange plays it straight: clean citrus, no added sweetness, no surprises. Dependable if you want something familiar and works well for anyone easing off regular orange soda.

Pamplemousse (French for grapefruit) is LaCroix’s most iconic flavor and the one most associated with the brand. It’s also its most divisive. Longtime fans call it their go-to can, while other tasters rank it dead last for tasting too faint. Worth trying once just to see which camp you land in.

Limoncello was built to echo the sweet, tart character of the Italian lemon liqueur. Since LaCroix carries no sweetener at all, it lands drier and less indulgent than the name suggests. Treat it as a grown-up, slightly rounder lemon flavor rather than an actual dessert drink stand-in.

🫐 Berry

Berry is a mixed berry blend without one single fruit taking over. Soft, a little sweet, and works as a safe middle ground pick if you’re buying for people whose taste you don’t know.

Black Razzberry promises more punch than it delivers. The name suggests something bold, and what shows up is a milder, more restrained berry flavor. Not a bad can by any measure, just one that undersells itself on the label.

Razz Cranberry leans tart, closer to actual cranberry juice than most flavored sparkling waters manage. It’s a strong pick around the holidays if you want something festive without reaching for a sugary mixer.

Cherry Blossom is the most unusual flavor in the lineup — floral first, fruit second. Some drinkers love the unexpected botanical note, others find it closer to a candle scent than a drink. It works best as a cocktail or mocktail mixer, paired with citrus to round out the floral edge.

Cherry Lime blends cherry and lime into something that reads closer to a fizzy Shirley Temple than a straight cherry can. A good pick if you want something sweeter than plain Lime without going full dessert flavor.

🌴 Tropical

Coconut has a thicker, richer mouthfeel than most of the lineup, closer to coconut water than a fruit essence. A flavor people either build a real habit around or actively avoid, since the coconut character carries more weight than most LaCroix flavors.

Mango is smooth, sweet, and one of the more instantly recognizable fruit flavors LaCroix makes. It reads true to the fruit without tipping into candy territory, and it holds up well served over ice.

Passionfruit brings a genuinely tropical, slightly tart edge that stands out from the citrus-heavy side of the lineup. It’s light rather than syrupy, which keeps it feeling like sparkling water instead of a tropical soda.

Guava São Paulo is one of the harder flavors to find on shelves, and one worth seeking out. The guava character is more pronounced here than in most fruit flavored sparkling waters, with a light sourness on the finish that keeps it from feeling one dimensional.

🍑 Orchard & Stone Fruit

Peach Pear blends two fruits that don’t usually get paired, and the result lands somewhere in the middle: pleasant, a little soft, but not the sharpest or most distinct flavor on the shelf. A fine everyday can, not a standout.

Strawberry Peach pairs juicy strawberry with a lighter peach note underneath. The tartness from the strawberry balances the sweetness of the peach well, and it’s become one of LaCroix’s more talked-about limited runs since its release.

Apricot is a genuine standout, ranking near the top in multiple recent taste tests. It carries real stone fruit character without leaning too sweet, and it’s a strong pick if you’ve worked through the standard citrus and berry options already.

🌸 Herbal, Floral & Cocktail-Inspired

Hibiscus brings a floral, slightly tart quality that reads more like a garden than a fruit bowl. An easy stand-in for hibiscus tea if you want something cold and carbonated instead.

Mojito goes further than most LaCroix flavors, built around mint and lime to echo the actual cocktail. It carries more flavor intensity than the brand is typically known for, which some drinkers love and others find a bit much for a sparkling water.

Sunshine doesn’t name one specific fruit. LaCroix describes it as a blend of citrus and tropical zest, and it lands somewhere between iced tea and a sun-warmed fruit cup depending who you ask. One of the more debated flavors in the current lineup.

🌟 Unusual & Standout Combinations

Pasteque (French for watermelon) is the flavor most taste testers point to as the best in the entire lineup right now. It tastes remarkably close to fresh watermelon rather than a vague fruit suggestion, which is the exact quality LaCroix struggles to nail with some of its other flavors.

Beach Plum is a lesser-known fruit for most American shoppers, and LaCroix’s version leans tart and slightly wine-like. Worth trying if you’ve already gone through the more familiar flavors and want something you can’t easily place.

Blackberry Cucumber is an unexpected pairing that works better than it sounds. The cucumber keeps things light and refreshing, while the blackberry adds just enough sweetness to keep it from tasting like plain water with a garnish. It scores well in recent rankings.

Pure & New

Pure is the base LaCroix sparkling water with nothing added — no essence, no flavor. The only can in the lineup that isn’t “naturally essenced,” and the pick for anyone who wants plain carbonation without picking a fruit at all.

Pineapple Coconut 🆕 is the newest addition, currently featured front and center on LaCroix’s own homepage as its latest release. It pairs the brand’s existing Coconut flavor with pineapple for a tropical combination the brand hasn’t offered before.

Best LaCroix Flavors, Ranked

LaCroix Sparkling Water Cans

Taste is personal, and LaCroix in particular tends to split people right down the middle — the brand’s flavor is famously subtle, which either reads as “refreshing” or “flavorless” depending who you ask. Based on a large-scale taste test by TODAY covering all 26 current flavors, a few clear patterns showed up.

The flavors that tend to win people over: Pasteque (watermelon) came out on top, praised for tasting like actual fresh watermelon rather than a vague fruit suggestion. Apricot, Blackberry Cucumber, and Tangerine also scored near the top — each one standing out for tasting closer to the real fruit than most flavored sparkling water manages.

The flavors that split opinion: Coconut and Mojito tend to land at the bottom of most rankings, often described as tasting more like a suggestion of the flavor than the flavor itself. Pamplemousse (grapefruit) is oddly polarizing: plenty of longtime fans call it their favorite, while other tasters rank it dead last.

The middle of the pack: Most of the fruit-forward flavors (Berry, Mango, Passionfruit, Strawberry Peach) land somewhere in the middle. They’re pleasant, they’re not going to blow you away, and that’s kind of the whole appeal of LaCroix in the first place. It’s meant to taste like a hint of fruit, not a juice box.

If you’re picking your first can, Lime, Lemon, and Pasteque are the safest starting points. If you already know you like bold flavor, Blackberry Cucumber and Apricot are worth tracking down even though they can be harder to find in stores.


Discontinued LaCroix Flavors

LaCroix NiCola — a short-lived line built to taste like a lighter, sparkling water take on cola — is gone. It included Cola Nicola and Coconut Cola, and both have been off shelves for a while. If you see them online, you’re looking at a collector’s item, not something you can reorder.

One correction worth making: some sites list Cherry Lime as part of a discontinued “Curate” line. That doesn’t match current retail listings — Cherry Lime shows up as part of LaCroix’s active lineup, so it’s kept listed as current rather than discontinued. If you’ve had trouble finding it on shelves, that’s more likely a regional stocking issue than a discontinued product.

References to a flavor called Pomme Bayá (apple berry) exist in some places but couldn’t be confirmed through a reliable, recent source whether it’s still sold — flagging it as unconfirmed.


LaCroix Variety Packs

Current confirmed packs include:

Tropical Variety Pack — a 24 can pack combining Mango, Coconut, and Passionfruit.

Cherry Blossom Variety Pack — a 24 can pack combining Razz Cranberry, Limoncello, and Cherry Blossom.

Availability of specific variety pack combinations shifts by retailer and season, so if you’re after a specific mix, it’s worth checking your usual grocery store or LaCroix’s own site directly rather than assuming a pack you saw once is a permanent lineup item.

Ingredients & Nutrition

LaCroix keeps its ingredient list as short as a beverage label gets: carbonated water and natural essence. That’s it for the flavored varieties. Pure, the unflavored option, is just the carbonated water on its own.

“Natural essence” is LaCroix’s term for its flavoring process, and the company has been fairly guarded about the specifics beyond saying it’s derived from the named fruit. This vagueness became the subject of a couple of lawsuits several years back, which claimed the flavoring contained synthetic compounds. Both were withdrawn or dropped without LaCroix admitting fault, and the company has maintained that all its flavor essences are naturally derived.

Per can, every flavored variety:

  • Calories: 0
  • Sugar: 0g
  • Sodium: 0mg
  • Carbohydrates: 0g
  • Caffeine: none
  • Artificial sweeteners: none

Because it has zero carbs and zero sugar, it fits cleanly into a keto diet. It’s also gluten free, vegan, kosher, and Whole30 approved, and the cans themselves are made without a BPA liner.


Is LaCroix Healthy?

For most people, yes — in the sense that swapping a can of LaCroix for a can of regular soda is a clear win. No sugar, no calories, no sodium, no artificial sweeteners.

Hydration. Carbonated water hydrates the body the same way still water does. The fizz doesn’t work against you.

Teeth. Flavored sparkling water, LaCroix included, is mildly acidic because of the CO2 and the natural essence used for flavor. Research reviewed by the American Dental Association shows flavored sparkling waters can contribute to some enamel wear over time, though notably less than regular or diet soda. Drinking it with meals rather than sipping it constantly through the day is the simple way to reduce that risk.

Weight and blood sugar. Since there’s no sugar and no calories, LaCroix doesn’t move the needle on either one directly. If you’re using it to replace sugary soda or juice, that swap can meaningfully cut your daily sugar and calorie intake.

The natural flavor question. If you’re someone who wants full transparency on exactly what “natural essence” means at the molecular level, LaCroix’s vagueness on this point might bother you more than the actual health profile of the drink. That’s a legitimate personal preference, not a safety issue.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many LaCroix flavors are there?

Around 26 currently, plus the brand's newest release, Pineapple Coconut. The exact number shifts as flavors rotate in and out, so treat this as a close estimate rather than a fixed count.

What is the best LaCroix flavor?

Pasteque (watermelon) is the most consistently praised flavor in recent taste tests, followed closely by Apricot and Blackberry Cucumber. Pamplemousse (grapefruit) is the brand's most iconic flavor and has a large following, even though it splits opinion more than most.

Is LaCroix healthy?

For most people, yes, as a swap for sugary soda or juice. It has zero calories, sugar, sodium, and artificial sweeteners. If you're sensitive to carbonation or prone to acid reflux, that's more about the fizz itself than anything specific to LaCroix.

Is LaCroix sparkling water or seltzer?

It's marketed and sold as sparkling water, though functionally it's very close to a flavored seltzer: carbonated water with flavoring added and nothing else.

Does LaCroix contain sugar or caffeine?

No to both. Every current LaCroix flavor has zero grams of sugar and the entire lineup is caffeine free.

Who owns LaCroix?

LaCroix is owned by National Beverage Corporation. The brand itself was created in 1980 by the G. Heileman Brewing Company in La Crosse, Wisconsin, and National Beverage acquired it in 1992.

What are LaCroix's natural essences?

It's LaCroix's term for how its flavors are derived from the named fruit, without added sugar or sweeteners. The company hasn't detailed the exact extraction process, which has drawn some criticism, though its own testing and statements maintain the essences are naturally derived.

Where can you buy LaCroix?

Most major US grocery chains, big box retailers, and online through Amazon and LaCroix's own site, which also sells some flavors and variety packs that aren't always available in stores.
