At the Sweets & Snacks Expo, Jelly Belly introduced all-new flavors of its non-alcoholic Cocktail Classics jelly beans. For some time now, fans have been enjoying flavors like pomegranate cosmo, margarita, mojito, strawberry daiquiri and pina colada. The expanded collection of cocktail-inspired jelly beans introduces a fresh trio of flavors with mimosa, gin and tonic and Moscow miule.
These gourmet jelly beans set themselves apart from the usual fruity flavors and they share a sophisticated way for candy fans to experience the flavors of their favorite drinks in new ways. Perfect for sharing, the jelly bean boxes are organized with bean-shaped compartments that separate the candies by color and flavor type. The ready-to-enjoy Jelly Belly Cocktail Classics are perfect for solo snacking or sharing.
