The Free Spirits Company Debuts Non-Alcoholic Ready to Drink Canned Cocktails
For the past few years, canned cocktails have been gaining traction and have been pecking away at beer sales. The same holds true, but to a lesser degree, with non-alcoholic beverages, weather its non-alcoholic beer or spirits. Now both worlds of canned cocktails and n/a beverages converge with the launch of non-alcoholic canned cocktails.
The Free Spirits Company, already known of its line of non-alcoholic spirits, has recently launched two ready to drink n/a canned cocktails. This new line kicks off with two classic cocktails: The Kentucky Mule and The Margarita.
“People love a great cocktail but when you’re on-the-go neither alcohol nor mixing up your own cocktail is very practical,” noted Milan Martin, CEO & Founder of The Free Spirits Company. “And because our customers are often those who pride themselves on living active, healthy lives, our new ‘fresh-out-of-the-shaker’ non-alcoholic cocktails help to elevate everyday, on-the-go occasions with fresh, bold, delicious, alcohol-free versions of your favorite buzzy cocktails.”
The Free Spirits Company ready to drink non-alcoholic canned cocktails are packed in 4-pack, 8.4 ounce cans at a suggested retails of $15.99. Each can contains 1% juice and are made with cane sugar and are vegan and gluten free. From sampling both varieties, each one offers up a satisfactory cocktail, all without containing any alcohol.
The Kentucky Mule is made with Free Spirits’ The Spirit of Bourbon. This one offers up the perfect combination of flavors of ginger, oak, lime and a touch of vanilla on the finish. Being lightly carbonated, it brings this n/a cocktail to life and is close to the real thing! This one even contains Vitamin B and sits at just 75 calories.
Its other offering, The Margarita, is made with Free Spirits’ Reposado-inspired The Spirit of Tequila water, agave, and cane sugar. This one is fruity, tangy, and all around flavorful. The only thing missing was a salted rim. Guess we should have been a bit more creative. The Margarita contains Vitamins B and C at just 65 calories.
Free Spirits Ready to Drink cocktails join The Free Spirits Company’s existing non-alcoholic spirit expressions including The Spirit of Tequila, The Spirit of Gin, The Spirit of Bourbon, The Spirit of Vermouth Rosso and The Spirit of Milano. Inspired by the world’s great spirits, each one is crafted to be a complex, nuanced, 1:1 non-alcoholic version of the great spirits and liqueurs of the world.
