To access the tender, sweet fruit hiding inside the prickly pear cactus, you have to engage in the tedious process of removing the sharp outer layer. Personally, I’m not even sure where to grab onto one of those spiky things!

So, rather than risk getting poked in the eye, I’m gonna stick with drinking today’s refreshing Florida Seltzer: Prickly Pear and Guava. The brewers pack it with juicy flavor from over 1,000 lbs of fresh fruit per batch! 

For a beverage stuffed with that much fruit, it’s amazing that it doesn’t come with a boatload of sugar! It’s just 110 calories and gluten-free — so everyone can enjoy this tropical treat without a side of guilt.

This crushable Seltzer comes from the collaboration kings at Untitled Art, and fans on Instagram are clamoring for a can. @alisonsancken declares, “Seriously the best alcoholic Seltzer I’ve ever had.”

So, if you’re up for the challenge of cracking open the fruit equivalent of a porcupine, be my guest! But, if you’d rather sip the fruits WITHOUT the labor, you may want to crack into one of these scintillating Seltzers instead.
