Dogfish Head Released a New Grapefruit & Pomegranate Vodka Crush
Dogfish Head recently updated its canned cocktail line with a summer-ready flavor—the Grapefruit & Pomegranate Vodka Crush, as well as a new Crush Variety Pack featuring a new exclusive recipe, as well—the Pineapple & Orange Rum Crush. Dogfish Head drew inspiration for these RTD beverages from "its coastal Delaware roots" and presents its refreshing canned cocktail line as "an off-centered take on the Delmarva (Delaware, Maryland Virginia) region's renowned Crush cocktail."
The Grapefruit & Pomegranate Vodka Crush boasts vodka distilled over grapefruit and pomegranate and then blended with grapefruit juice. The flavor is tart and subtly sweet. The Pineapple & Orange Rum Crush features rum distilled over pineapple and Valencia oranges. The robust tropical flavor is reached with the blending of the alcohol with orange and pineapple juices.
