Coca-Cola South Pacific will expand its Cascade beverages range with a major packaging refresh aimed at attracting the over-30s crowd.

New flavours will include Raspberry, Mint and Ginger, Spiced Pear and Bitters, Spicy Ginger Beer, and a reformulated Ginger Beer and Tonic Water, and the bottles have been designed to reflect “Cascade's sophisticated adult positioning” according to the company.

The drinks will be available in a range of sizes including 330ml glass, 4x300ml glass, 4x200ml can multipacks, and 850mL PET.

Primarily targeting consumers 30 years and over, the new flavours reflect a sharper taste to suit adults.

Celebrity chef Luke Mangan has been brought on board for the launch.

Food & Drink Business

Our Top 100 2025 edition of Food & Drink Business magazine is more than the annual flagship Top 100 Report. Industry leaders reflect on the year past and the one ahead, we provide our annual news review, M&A wrap-up, and all the executive moves, and a Roman-inspired sports drink, Posca, is our final Rising Star for 2025.

A blend of salt, red wine vinegar, and water – known as Posca – was the ‘original sports drink’, helping to keep the soldiers of the Roman Empire marching up to 30 kilometres per day. Keira Joyce spoke with Posca Hydrate co-founders, Merrick Watts and Ed Stening, about reviving a 2000-year-old functional beverage for the modern healthy lifestyle.
