-196, pronounced “Minus One Nine Six”, is a vodka seltzer that gets its name from the technology used to extract flavor from whole fruit.
-196 Vodka seltzer uses Suntory’s unique Freeze Crush Infusion technology that freezes and crushes real whole fruit to capture every bit of fruit flavors. It starts with real, whole lemons that are frozen at -196 degrees Celsius, or -320 degrees Fahrenheit, using a proprietary Japanese process to lock in whole fruit flavor, then infused with premium vodka to bring forward a bold, fruit-forward flavor & aroma.
