Two new Sprite variations have hit Australian shelves, providing an added caffeine hit.

Sprite Lemon+ and Sprite Lemon+ Zero Sugar are 'lemon zest' flavoured, and contain caffeine.

Coca-Cola South Pacific marketing director Kate Miller said Sprite had always been clear with its position as a brand that ‘refreshes people’.

“With the introduction of Sprite Lemon+, we are hoping to encourage people to ‘think zesty’ and refresh them mentally, with added caffeine,” said Miller.

Sprite Lemon+ is available at leading supermarkets, convenience stores, petrol stations or select foodservice stores and e-commerce sites.
