We have compiled a detailed review of our experience, highlighting the taste, aroma, ingredients, and overall vibe this hard seltzer offers. 

Spot on Orange Vanilla Cream Flavor

What stands out the most about Bravago “Sweet Freak” Vanilla & Orange Cream Hard Seltzer is how much it tastes like an orange creamsicle. The orange cream and vanilla are both strong and accurate. You also can’t taste the alcohol, which is always a major plus in a fruit-forward hard seltzer. There is some sweetness from the sugar, orange, and vanilla flavors. However, this hard seltzer is not overly sweet. The monk fruit aftertaste is prominent as well. We also appreciated the pleasing aroma this hard seltzer provides. It smells just like an orange creamsicle, which serves as a nice preview of the accurate taste that is to follow. The low level of carbonation is one of the only negative aspects we note about this hard seltzer. There are some bubbles stemming from the carbonated water, but we are underwhelmed with the total amount of fizz. That said, the excellent and accurate flavor makes up for the lack of carbonation.
