A Toronto-based husband-and-wife team created Eatable gourmet popcorn that's infused with the flavors of classic cocktails, wines and spirits. Made with real alcohol, the snacks are popped and twice-baked, and the cooking process removes the alcohol content so that all of the flavor remains for a treat that everyone can appreciate.
The brand goes above and beyond basic flavors like butter with novel varieties that share the taste of champagne, margaritas, sangria and whiskey. The adult-targeted popcorn snacks are packaged in dark bags that include colorful beverage silhouettes and playful names that reference what inspired each variety. There's 'Whiskey on the Pops,' 'Pop the Champagne' and 'Pop the Salt & Tequila,' all of which are giftable and ready to elevate everyday occasions.
