The [Seagram's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/seagrams-escapes-refreshers) Escapes Cocktails are a new lineup of cocktail-inspired malt beverages focused on helping consumers enjoy their favorite cocktail flavors without the associated calories.

The cocktail-inspired drinks come in four flavors including Pineapple Mule, Strawberry Margarita, Grapefruit Paloma and Lemon Collins, which each maintain a 5% ABV with just 100-calories per serving. The authentic cocktail-inspired drinks come in variety packs with 12 12-ounce slim cans.

The Seagram's Escapes Cocktails play on the popularity of [hard seltzers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/white-claw-gin-smash), but with a distinct cocktail-inspired flavor. This speaks to the continued popularity of low-sugar and [low-calorie libations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/this-is-skinny) as consumers seek to enjoy their favorite alcoholic refreshments in a less indulgent way. The drinks are arriving just in time for the warm weather months, which could help them become a new summertime staple.
