Jack Daniel's recently launched whiskey cola in bottled packs of six and it is now also introducing spirit-based canned cocktails that are just as easy for adults to enjoy. The new Jack & Seltzer; Jack & Cola; and Jack, Honey & Lemonade all come in ready-to-drink formats that are made with Jack Daniel’s Tennessee Whiskey, each of which offers a refreshing and convenient way for consumers to enjoy the summer.
While the classic Jack & Cola and the Jack, Honey & Lemonade boast 7% ABV, the Jack and Seltzer offers a slightly lower alcohol content at 5% ABV. While many brands are launching canned cocktails and hard seltzers, these ones offer an experience with a trusted whiskey.
