Non-alcoholic spirits brand Caleño added two new flavors to its non-alcoholic rum range: White Coconut, and Mango & Passion Fruit. Both of these rum alternatives are ready to create traditional rum cocktails without the alcohol, all while sharing a well-balanced dose of tropical flavor.
While White Coconut boasts the taste of smooth, sweet coconut with notes of vanilla and pineapple, the Mango & Passion Fruit variety brims with ripe, fruity notes with hints of guava and zesty lime.
“Younger consumers are driving the no-and-low growth, and they tend to gravitate towards sweeter, rum-based cocktails," said Ellie Webb, founder of Caleño, "Non-alcoholic ‘rum’ is massively underserved in retail compared to ‘gin’, so we see a significant missed opportunity that Caleño is perfectly positioned to capitalize on with these new flavors.”
