5 High Noon Alternatives to Keep on Hand While the Recall Plays Out
By now, you’ve probably heard the buzz about the High Noon recall. The beloved vodka seltzer brand accidentally botched some of its packaging, mixing up cans labeled as CELSIUS energy drinks with their actual boozy contents. That’s right, a seltzer surprise no one asked for. If you’re in the mood to sip without worrying about cracking into the wrong can, these five seltzer alternatives will keep you cool, hydrated, and safely 100% adult-approved.
1. White Claw Hard Seltzer
You guessed it. The OG party-starter, White Claw, still reigns supreme for many. With familiar flavors like Black Cherry and Mango, you’ll find these fizzy drinks at backyard BBQs, beach days, or girls’ night marathons. It’s light, refreshing, and gets the job done without overcomplicating the seltzer situation. Bonus? It’s insanely popular, so you know exactly what you’re getting with every sip.
2. Truly Hard Seltzer
Truly might be White Claw’s sassier sibling. Their flavor lineup feels like a glow-up for your taste buds. From Watermelon Lemonade to Wild Berry, these seltzers bring a bold pop while keeping calories low (yes, you can still have that second taco). The fizz is soft, the fruit is strong, and your fridge will thank you for keeping things versatile.
3. Topo Chico Hard Seltzer
Not just fizzy water in a can anymore! Topo Chico now delivers their sparkling expertise with a boozy twist. With flavors like Tangy Lemon Lime and Exotic Pineapple, every can feels like a mini tropical vacation. It’s got that Topo signature tight carbonate sparkle, but fair warning—not every market carries it yet. Guess it’s time for a road trip?
4. Vizzy Hard Seltzer
Vitamin C in your seltzer? Cheers to feeling like a responsible adult. Vizzy has nailed the fruit-meets-refreshment combo, offering flavors like Pineapple Mango and Strawberry Kiwi with a side of antioxidant benefits. They’re perfect for sipping by the pool or breaking out at game night. Plus, it earns you wholesome brownie points, right?
5. Lone River Ranch Water
Looking for a seltzer with some Texas charm? Lone River’s Ranch Water is your answer. Their Prickly Pear and Lime flavors stick close to tequila roots, meaning they’re bold, smooth, and straight-up delightful with tacos or BBQ. If you haven’t tried a Southwest vibe in your seltzer yet, now’s your moment.
