Breckenridge Distillery Introduces Breck Vodka Seltzer

— July 19, 2026 — Marketing
Breckenridge Distillery, an award-winning Colorado craft spirits producer known for its high-altitude bourbons and whiskeys, has formally entered the ready-to-drink beverage sector with the launch of Breck Vodka Seltzer. This line of canned cocktails leverages the brand's established expertise in vodka production.

Breckenridge Distillery's Breck Vodka Seltzer comprises four distinct flavors — Lime, Grapefruit, Tropical, and Peach — each formulated at 5% alcohol by volume and designed to deliver a crisp, clean drinking experience that balances natural fruit character with a subtle sweetness. Meanwhile, the company maintains the production quality associated with the distillery's prestigious spirit portfolio.

Ultimately, Breckenridge Distillery's Breck Vodka Seltzer is positioned as a lifestyle beverage, explicitly crafted for outdoor enthusiasts and those who identify with the laid-back, mountain culture of the Rocky Mountains. Initial availability is set for Colorado retailers in both four-pack and eight-pack variety formats.
