University-Celebrating Canned Cocktails

The Electric Park Canned Cocktails Come in Two Flavors

The Electric Park Canned Cocktails have been announced by J. Rieger & Co. as a series of libations perfect for consumers to try out this fall.

The cocktails come in two flavors including Kansas Cooler and Beak 'Em Berry, which are both crafted with a high-quality flavor in mind that comes in at 4.5% ABV. Both of the drinks are made with the Rieger's Vodka and get their flavor from real fruit juice to prioritize a high-quality taste. The drinks were created in partnership with the University of Kansas and will help raise funds to promote responsible drinking on the campus.

President and Co-Founder Andy Rieger spoke on the new Electric Park Canned Cocktails saying, "I am a huge fan with deep family connections to the University of Kansas, and am so proud that our new Electric Park brand of canned cocktails is kicking off under our KU partnership. As a spirits brand with a focus on perfecting cocktails, we created these two light, refreshing vodka soda cocktails with a very specific occasion in mind: perfect for social gatherings and tailor-made for KU tailgating.”
