Description
Sprite Winter Spiced Cranberry, as its name implies, is a Winter Spiced Cranberry flavor of Sprite, similar to its predecessor, Sprite Cranberry. Its color is clear.
Reception
In 2019, since the reformulation of Sprite Winter Spiced Cranberry, it did receive enormous backlash from most people that liked the original Sprite Cranberry flavor, even gone as far and wide to bring back the original.
Outcome
Since two years have passed by, people are still demanding to bring back the original flavor of Sprite Cranberry. Other people switched to another competitor's cranberry flavor to go off on the thanksgiving traditions, such as PepsiCo's Sierra Mist Cranberry Splash and US Keurig Dr Pepper's Canada Dry Cranberry Ginger Ale.
As of November 2021, The Coca-Cola Company hasn't yet decided on bringing the original back.

Trivia
- In late 2018, Sprite Cranberry evolved into a meme because of a commercial that featured Lebron James asking "Wanna Sprite Cranberry?" to the vests on the house. As of early-mid 2019, its popularity died down as expected; however, even after it got reformulated and renamed into Sprite Winter Spiced Cranberry was introduced, the old commercial continued to be used (albeit edited).
