Consumers' inclination toward healthier alcohol alternatives propelled by the low-carb movement and the inclusion of low or no sugar has fueled the growth of the market. Breweries and manufacturers have introduced low-calorie, low-carb, gluten-free alcohol induced sparkling water with new natural flavors, providing consumers with more varietal options to choose from.

However, with an increasing number of market players and rising competition, companies are introducing hard sparkling water with natural flavors and real fruits.

Thus, such prevention campaigns are expected to impede the growth of the market during the forecast period.
