She said:
"Brutal Fruit launched 23 years ago, and it has continued to build market share by understanding and acting on its besties’ desires. In 2018, this culminated in Brutal Fruit Spritzer’s Ruby Apple, which morphed traditional apple cider into the bold-yet-delicate drink of choice for South African women.
"South Africa gave Brutal Fruit Spritzer our voice, our character, and our understanding of what women truly want from a premium beverage experience. The Pink Table is our thank you to our South African besties who have made this brand what it is today, and an invitation to our besties globally to experience what makes these gatherings so special."
