The Kraken Rum has launched a limited-edition cocktail kit in partnership with Cocktail Courier to commemorate the upcoming premiere of FX’s Alien: Earth, set to debut August 12 on FX and Hulu.
As one of only seven brands selected to collaborate with Alien: Earth—joining names like SoulCycle and W Hotels—The Kraken Rum brings its signature mysterious edge to this exclusive campaign. The Kraken x Alien: Earth Cocktail Kit offers a one-of-a-kind drinking ritual inspired by the show’s eerie, otherworldly atmosphere.
The kit includes a futuristic collector’s box, alien-themed drinkware, all necessary ingredients to craft a dark, tentacle-worthy cocktail, a custom recipe card, garnishes, and exclusive collectibles tied to the series.
