Grand Rapids-based Long Road Distillers announced it is distributing its new line of ready-to-drink canned cocktails throughout the state of Michigan.

The cocktails should be hitting store shelves and restaurant back bars already after the distillery partnered with Kalamazoo-based Imperial Beverage.

The distillery started producing canned cocktails on a limited basis in 2020 but due to popularity, Long Road explored new ways to meet demand.

The canned cocktails are all 7% ABV and come in three flavors:

  • The Polish Falcon – Long Road Original Vodka, lemongrass ginger beer and lime
  • Lavender Lemonade – Long Road Original Vodka, lavender rosewater, lemon, Teta's Lemonade
  • Rosemary Gin Fizz – Long Road Dry Gin, rosemary, grapefruit, lemon and a hint of salt

“We regularly get calls and e-mails about our canned cocktails from people around the state who visited one of our locations or picked up a 4-pack at a West Michigan retailer,” Long Road co-owner and co-founder Kyle VanStrien said in a statement. “Up to this point, we’ve had to encourage them to take a road trip back to the area so they could stock up. Now, they’ll be able to grab our products closer to home!”
