Decades after becoming a unique standout in the international Fanta lineup, with millions of sippers across the globe, Fanta Strawberry has (finally) made its long-awaited premiere in Canada.

Global Fanta fans, we salute you

Call it a long-term craft of perfection or maybe even a “World-Tested-Ready-For-Canada Program,” what’s important here is that Canada can finally enjoy Strawberry Fanta in its ultimate iteration.

Years of people sipping this delicious fizzy concoction from Mexico, the Philippines, Egypt, and back again have played a major role in refining the flavour profile. Fanta sends a big thank you to all those millions of “beta testers” out there, and we Canadians thank you too!

If you’re like the millions of faithful Fanta drinkers out there, you’ve definitely tasted Strawberry Fanta abroad, and may have even brought a few back home with you.

The Fanta game in Canada just seriously levelled up, and I got the special opportunity to join the strawberry party and try it out myself.

Frosty right out of the fridge, my Fanta experience started off canuck cold — a perfect relief from the summer’s heat. Tantalizing pink bubbles erupted from the can and into my glass, with a fragrance that reminded me of fruitful fields of juicy red strawberries.

The first sip was lip-smacking, the second was bold, and the third? A beautiful comb of sweet and tart. Bringing forward a refreshing strawberry taste, the soda’s profile was equally balanced, adding to that vibrant Fanta flair.

What can I say? As a lifelong Fanta fan, my soda dreams just came true! Strawberry Fanta delivers a crave-able experience, and since it’s made with natural flavours we Canadians have come to expect, it was even that more refreshing. Guess that world-wide “beta test” paid off!
