Cuervo Canned Cocktails have been developed by the Proximo Spirits-owned brand as a ready-to-drink (RTD) alcohol product that embraces a lower ABV to tap into demand for more casual alcoholic refreshments.
The drink range is made with the signature Jose Cuervo tequila, but maintains a modest 5.9% ABV per can to work well for consumers seeking an alternative to boozy alternatives on the market or freshly mixed alternatives. The drink range features four flavors including the Classic Margarita, Strawberry Margarita, Paloma and Pink Lemonade, which each respond to the traditional tequila-based cocktails often found at bars but with a convenient twist.
Cuervo Canned Cocktails are arriving in the US in four and eight-can variety packs as well as individually.
