Cocktails for summer on the go!
Summer is here and it’s time to get out and have some fun! Whether you are sitting poolside, sunning at the beach or just chilling at a backyard BBQ…canned cocktails (and wine) or a new boxed organic cocktail brand are making it fun and easy to enjoy! We’ve pulled together a list of our some of our favorites. If you’re not a drinker…check out the mocktails option.
ON Y VA
On Y VA is premium French wine in a can (oui, a can!) It one of our favs as a refreshing accompaniment to a cheese and charcuterie summer picnic. I interviewed the husband and wife team behind this chic portable wine, Alex and Julie Milligan, when they were launching their business. You can read the interview here. If sauvignon blanc is what you crave…ON Y VA is your new summer wine that travels! No corkscrew required.
Long Drink
The beverage is not just another RTD canned cocktail or spiked seltzer, it’s an ode to a legendary Finnish drink with a subtle and natural, yet refreshing kick that has quickly become a cult favorite amongst top celebrities and tastemakers – including co-founders Miles Teller, DJ Kygo and Professional Golfer Rickie Fowler.

Long Drink has no trace of malt liquor, it is made with premium Gin.

Instead of sweet artificial flavors, Long Drink keeps it traditional with a citrus flavor that is not overwhelming, but refreshing.

Long Drink has something for everyone – with Traditional & Cranberry flavors clocking in at 5.5% ABV, Long Drink Zero has no sugar or carbs at 5% ABV and 90 calories (Keto-friendly!).
