Basketball legend Shaquille O'Neal teamed up with BeatBox Beverages to drop an exclusive new flavor, BeatBox Blueberry Lemonade, that's bold, fruity, and boozy with 11.1% ABV. "From the start, Shaq recognized that BeatBox is more than a drink—it's a party movement," said Brad Schultz, Co-Founder and CMO at BeatBox.
This lemonade for adults is packed into a compact 500ml carton that can be resealed, and second to flavor and the high alcohol content, BeatBox Blueberry Lemonade speaks to drinkers in search of low-sugar, gluten-free refreshment. On the packaging, drinkers will see playful doodles, lightning bolts, a depiction of O'Neal, and a reference to his music moniker, DJ Diesel.
Fans of the brand's previously launched lemonade flavors, like Watermelon Lemonade and Lemon Squeeze, are sure to appreciate the newest addition to BeatBox's Lemonade line.
