Handcrafted alcohol brand Flying Embers has announced the launch of a new line of cocktail-inspired ready-to-drink canned beverages.
Made with USDA certified organic ingredients including Agave Nectar and real fruit juices, Flying Embers has leveraged its proprietary fermentation process to transform traditional cocktail ingredients into flavourful high-ABV, Margarita (10%) and Mojito (8%) cocktail-style RTDs.
Flying Embers’ 100% plant-based, organic drinks are aged in tequila and rum barrels to infuse authentic flavours, while allowing them to be naturally free of sugar without the industry-standard syrups, artificial flavours or colours often used to disguise a lack of quality.
“We recognised the need to reimagine what a canned cocktail could be. In theory it’s great to envision a couple of shots of a spirit mixed with fresh juice in a can, but that’s unfortunately not the reality. Many of the RTDs on the market positioning themselves as better-for-you are in fact full of syrups, colours, stabilisers and other junk because fresh cocktails simply do not hold up to being packaged,” said Flying Embers founder and CEO, Bill Moses.
“We went back to our roots of working with plant-based ingredients and using our fermentation expertise to create the wildly delicious and complex flavors consumers are seeking, while being brewed to be better; naturally free of sugars and carbs.”
Flying Embers’ cocktail-style Mojito and Margarita inspired drinks are available for purchase in two six packs, offering three flavours of each variety. The 10% ABV Sparkling Margarita Variety Pack includes three exotic flavours – Classic Lime, Blood Orange Pomegranate and Strawberry Guava, while the 8% ABV Sparkling Mojito Variety pack includes three flavours of Lime, Watermelon and Mango.
Initially, Flying Embers canned cocktails will be available at select retailers across California, Texas, Colorado and North Carolina, with plans to expand its distribution and retail partner footprint throughout the year.
