IME, the watermelon/lime flavor appears to be pretty popular among the millennial crowd. And yeah, just pop a lime wedge or two into a club soda for straight lime flavor. Someone at AA is trying to be hip, with offerings like Truly hard seltzer and now the Aha. Maybe in the future we'll also see cold brew coffee or energy drinks (I used to rely on VX's rockstar recovery lemonade back in the day...).
