Cutwater, the spirits-based canned cocktail brand known for its high-ABV products, announced the return of its holiday Espresso Martini and Peppermint White Russian, and announced two all-new cocktails: the Whiskey Sour and the Spiced Apple Mule.

While the 8% ABV Whiskey Sour is made with Cutwater’s award-winning whiskey and lemon liqueur, the 7% ABV Spiced Apple Mule makes the most of Cutwater’s award-winning vodka, ginger beer and spiced apple flavor.

Adults eager to try Cutwater's Spiced Apple Mule will only find it in the limited-edition Fireside Variety Pack, alongside the returning White Russian and Espresso Martini. In 2023, Cutwater's Espresso Martini became a top innovation by dollar sales, and the Peppermint White Russian was the number one 4-pack in rate of sale during the holidays.
