Colony Cocktails crafts wine-based canned cocktails that are conveniently packaged, save people the hassle of mixing and the beverages boast the strength of traditional cocktails. The Sonoma wine beverages are gluten-free, and they can be found in packs of four.
Colony Cocktails co-founder Co-Founder Jessica Miller says: "Our brand was inspired by the small connections we would make over meals when we traveled. The small talk with strangers at the next table or, better yet, at a communal table or even with the restaurant staff, was incredibly impactful." This sense of community is conveyed through a trio of destination-inspired flavors: The Biarritz, The Tangier and The Charleston.
The launch of these gluten-free aperitifs kicks off the brand's philanthropic program, Sip to Give.
