Wild Cherry and Peach Fusion flavors poised to kick-start taste buds this summer

SOMERSET, N.J., May 3, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- The Tic Tac® brand introduced today two new Tic Tac® mint flavors designed to activate taste buds this summer, Wild Cherry and Peach Fusion.  These new summer flavors from Tic Tac® mints embody all things sunny and sweet with a mouthwatering fruity tanginess and flavorful kick that will help consumers keep things fresh and fun this summer. 

While the sweet and refreshing sensation of Peach Fusion Tic Tac® mints provide a relaxing way to cool off from the summer heat, the bursting flavor of Wild Cherry Tic Tac® mints will wake up fatigued taste buds just in time for a summer night out.
