As an alternative to many alcoholic beverages that are full of artificial ingredients, calories and sugar, alcohol brand Crook & Marker is introducing a line of Spiked Sodas with organic alcohol and zero sugar. These alcohol-infused sodas are being introduced in flavors that remind of popular favorites like Root Beer, Classic Cola, Lemon Lime and Ginger Ale.
According to Crook & Marker's founder Ben Weiss, "Soda has become a bad four-letter word in many households across America—not because anyone ever fell out of love with the taste of soda, just the sugar and broken ingredients that came with it." The brand is attempting to get consumers to see soda in a new light with its uniquely positioned product, which is made with its proprietary BaseBrew alcohol crafted from ancient grains and superfoods.
