The Friend of the Devil canned cocktails have been created by the team behind Devil's Foot Beverage as a series of libations perfect for discerning drinkers to try out.
The cocktails are crafted with a ready-to-drink (RTD) format in mind and boast Carolina-made spirits in each recipe. The cocktails come in two varieties including Vodka Lemonade and the Carolina Mule, which put Botanica Vodka from Nippitaty Distillery and Asheville Vodka from Cultivated Cocktails, respectively, in the spotlight. Each drink has an 8% ABV and are crafted with a range of premium ingredients.
VP, Lead Designer and Co-Founder of Devil's Foot and Friend of the Devil Jacob Baumann spoke on the Friend of the Devil canned cocktails saying, "We’ve worked with local bars and restaurants to use our Ginger Beer and Lemonade as the base of their cocktails on tap for years now, and it’s time to share the love! We are excited to use our same sustainable, farm-to-can approach to create canned cocktails."
