Stock Your Outdoor Bar with Our Favorite Canned Cocktails
Outside
You found the perfect campsite, unloaded your gear, and set up the tent--the last thing you want to do is make some complicated drink to enjoy in the outdoors. Thankfully, beverage companies have been upping the canned cocktail game, mixing up ready-to-enjoy drinks that are not only portable but delicious. Here, we outlined our favorites, listed from the most boozy to the least.
Social Hour Prizefighter ($20 for four)
This cocktail offers a complex pour for a premixed drink. Old-school Fernet meets rye whiskey for a sip that's reminiscent of refreshing peach iced tea--with an 11.5 percent ABV (alcohol by volume) kick.
Salt Point Beverage Greyhound ($18 for four)
Soft bubbles of grapefruit soda and vodka give this 10 percent ABV drink a fresh-squeezed flavor. If you're not a vodka fan, Salt Point also has a great cucumber-gin cocktail.
JuneShine Classic Tequila Margarita ($50 for twelve)
Known for its hard kombucha, JuneShine branched out into cocktails with this simple 10 percent ABV margarita. It's made up of tequila, orange, lime, and sparkling water. A dash of salt balances out the sweet and sour.
Curious Elixirs No. 2 ($39 for four)
This cocktail trades alcohol for damiana, an adaptogen said to help regulate stress. (The science is still out on that.) Ginger and jalapeno flavors mix with pineapple for a dark-and-stormy riff.
Ghia Ginger ($18 for four)
For a drink that packs a punch, try this nonalcoholic combination of spicy ginger beer and bittersweet aperitif. The retro cans are slim and short for easy portability.
Cann Social Tonic Lemon Lavender ($20 for six)
Lavender isn't the only herb in these booze-free cans, which feature two milligrams of THC and four milligrams of CBD. (The drink is only available at dispensaries in select states that have legalized marijuana.) A sliding tab reseals each lid, so there's no pressure to chug the entire thing in one sitting.
