These Masons of Yorkshire RTDs Were Created with Franklin & Sons

— June 18, 2025 — Lifestyle
Ready-to-drink (RTD) alcohol products are often made with a branded spirit but with a relatively nondescript mixer, which is something these new Masons of Yorkshire RTDs have been created to help change. The canned alcoholic refreshments were created in partnership with the Franklin & Sons mixer brand to provide peace of mind to consumers that the drink is mixed to perfection. The drinks come in 250ml cans in two varieties including Original Gin & Light Tonic and Vodka, Lime & Lemonade, which both put the premium spirits and mixer ingredients in the spotlight.

The Masons of Yorkshire RTDs are being launched on the Good Time In platform and via the brand's website in the UK, and will even be available on TransPennine Express trains soon.
