It’s finally summer! Although I live in Florida, there’s just something about summer that makes me so happy. One of our favorite things to do is go to the beach, listen to some chill music (Bob Marley anyone?) and sip on cocktails while we watch the waves crash.
Unfortunately, there aren’t many options when it comes to cocktails unless you want to head up to the bar and pay for overpriced drinks. No thanks.
Here is our old routine: Drive to a liquor store near the beach. Then we would buy a fifth of either vodka, rum or tequila along with a few orange juices. BUT GUESS WHAT – no glass allowed on the beach, so we would buy these clear plastic cups. (Like red solo cups but a little fancier haha) Once we got to the beach, we would dump out half of the orange juice or try to drink half of it. We’d top them off with the alcohol of choice and off we would go.
Here is our new routine: Drive to a liquor store near the beach. Buy Vrai Canned Cocktails.
Seriously, these are a freaking Godsend! I wish someone would have told me about them forever ago, which is why I’m spilling the beans for you now.
They make everything so much easier, no matter what your plans are. Take them to parties, BBQ’s, or pop a few in your fridge for some cocktails on hand! Pour them in a pretty glass or drink them from the can – doesn’t matter!
Oh, and let’s talk flavor real quick. I’m a little picky when it comes to things like this, which is pretty inconvenient considering I have celiac disease and gluten-free options are limited.
I like drinks that have a little tang but are mostly fruity and refreshing. Billy describes Vrai Canned Cocktails as sweet, but not that gross sugary sweet. Which makes sense, because they have no sodium, no high fructose corn syrup, and no artificial coloring.
No matter what your drink of choice is if you like cocktails there’s a good chance you’ll love these. Green tea is not my jam, but I’m pretty open-minded. I thought for sure Tangerine would be my favorite flavor, but surprisingly it’s the green tea!
Billy literally hasn’t drank vodka in 10 years, but I made him try this since I knew he would love it. He was super mad, but I mean he’s pretty open minded so he went with it. I gave him a can of Vrai Tangerine to try and he drank it all right away. It’s his new favorite.
All I can say is that you have to try them for yourself. If you go to their website, you can find which locations sell them so you can try them for yourself.
If you’ve tried them, which is your favorite? Green tea or tangerine?
