References: brown-forman
New Mix, Mexico’s best-selling ready-to-drink cocktail brand, is officially making its U.S. debut. Crafted with 100% El Jimador® Blanco Tequila and blended with fruit-forward liqueurs, New Mix delivers an authentic tequila experience in a convenient canned format.
Positioned as “the real Mexican RTD,” the launch introduces two iconic flavors rooted in Mexican cocktail culture: Paloma and Cantarito. The Paloma features a balanced blend of tart grapefruit, smooth tequila, and a hint of sweetness from grapefruit liqueur and concentrate, while the Cantarito combines tequila with citrus liqueur and grapefruit for a fizzy, zesty finish that perfectly captures the essence of this traditional favorite.
Each 355mL (12oz) can contains 5% ABV and is available in 4-packs for a suggested retail price of $10.99. The rollout begins this fall across California, Texas, Ohio, Illinois, Nevada, Arizona, New York, New Jersey, and Colorado.
