Dogfish Head Launches New Culinary-Crafted RTDs

Pulling inspiration from its seaside home, Dogfish Head Distilling Co. proudly introduces two new culinary-crafted Canned Cocktails to its existing lineup of ready-to-drink offerings, Blood Orange & Mango Vodka Crush (7% ABV) and Lemon & Lime Gin Crush (7% ABV). Citrus-forward and totally CRUSH-able, each was thoughtfully constructed with real culinary ingredients and two full-proof shots of Dogfish Head Distilling Co. spirits for a consistently, high-quality drinking experience that tastes as though it was poured directly from a bartender’s shaker tin. Both Blood Orange & Mango Vodka Crush and Lemon & Lime Gin Crush are available now, from coast-to-coast, in four-pack/355-mL slim cans.

“Inspired by the sun, surf and beaches of Dogfish Head’s seaside home, these new Canned Cocktail recipes are our off-centered take on the area’s most popular – and most refreshing – cocktail, ‘The Crush,’ which is a simply-made combination of spirits and freshly-pressed juice obtained by ‘crush’-ing the fruit with a hand-powered press,” said Sam Calagione, Dogfish Head founder & brewer in a press release. “Like the original, our Blood Orange & Mango Vodka Crush and Lemon & Lime Gin Crush combine thoughtfully crafted spirits with real fruit juices, but we make the magic happen without the equipment or the hassle, allowing you to enjoy this favorite straight from the fridge OR toss it into a cooler and take it along on your next off-centered adventure.”

With the introduction of Blood Orange & Mango Vodka Crush and Lemon & Lime Gin Crush, Dogfish Head Distilling Co.’s portfolio of culinary-crafted Canned Cocktails now includes five uniquely tasty libations. The breadth of the brand’s Canned Cocktail lineup not only provides drinkers an array of imbibing options, but gives it more opportunity to gain share in the spirits-based, ready-to-drink segment, which has grown +128% in 2021 YTD.*

  • Blood Orange & Mango Vodka Crush: Light, refreshing and bursting with juicy flavor, Blood Orange & Mango Vodka Crush begins with Dogfish Head Distilling Co. vodka distilled with real blood oranges and mangos and blends it with “crushed” orange and mango juices, and a hint of citrus.
  • Lemon & Lime Gin Crush: A real palate-cleansing refresher, Lemon & Lime Gin Crush is built upon Dogfish Head Distilling Co.’s bright and citrusy gin blended with freshly “crushed” lemon and lime juices, and a touch of basil for a deliciously citrusy and herbaceous sipper that will leave the drinker wanting more.
  • Strawberry & Honeyberry Vodka Lemonade (7%ABV): Packing the well-balanced tartness of fresh-squeezed lemon combined with a sweet berry taste, Strawberry & Honeyberry Vodka Lemonade features Dogfish Head Distilling Co. vodka distilled with honeyberries, macerated with strawberries and blended with a house-made lemonade.
  • Blueberry Shrub Vodka Soda (7% ABV): Blueberry Shrub Vodka Soda showcases Dogfish Head Distilling Co. vodka distilled with blueberries, macerated with lightly sweetened balsamic and red wine vinegar, and blended with soda water.
