Rancho La Gloria Offers Lime Splash and Strawberry Blitz in Cans

— January 14, 2026 — Marketing
Rancho La Gloria has introduced a line extension in the form of a large-format malt-based beverage — the Tall Boy Margarita. At 10% ABV, the offering presents a significantly higher alcohol content than many ready-to-drink alternatives.

The Tall Boy Margarita range departs from the brand's traditional agave-wine base. Instead, the new RTD beverages utilize a malt foundation and are available in two flavor variants — Lime Splash and Strawberry Blitz.

Rancho La Gloria's Tall Boy Margarita is positioned as a convenient and potent option for social gatherings and active lifestyles. Joey Parris, CMO of Patco Brands, confirms: "With our new malt-based Tall Boy Margaritas, we're not just expanding our product line, we're creating a bold new occasion. These 19.2-ounce cans are designed for the consumer whose life is on the go and is ready to party. We're delivering the exceptional flavor and punch our fans expect, now in a convenient format built for a good time."
