Sycamore Distilling, the iconic American distillery founded in 1828, recently expanded its portfolio with the introduction of a new line of ready-to-drink canned cocktails. The new line up boasts three refreshing beverages including Sycamore Bourbon and Cola, Voltage Vodka Electric Mule, and Cooper Island Markoe Bay Mojito. Each beverage boasts an 8 percent alcohol-by-volume. Consumers can purchase a four-pack of the drinks for $13.99 USD.
In addition to the new ready-to-drink canned cocktail series, the brand also debuted RedSky Gin.
