Reed’s, Inc., America's leading ginger beverage brand, has announced the launch of 'Reed's Zero Sugar Stormy Mule,' which will be distributed exclusively via retailers on the West Coast.
The new sugar-free drink builds on the brand's signature alcoholic RTD beverage, the 'Classic Mule,' by offering consumers a unique twist on the Dark & Stormy cocktail. The Stormy Mule is made with naturally brewed fresh ginger root and contains a natural rum taste. In addition, the beverage features a 7% ABV and is made without the use of artificial flavors, colors, or GMOs.
“With the strong customer acceptance and sell-through of our Zero Sugar Classic Mule launched in June 2020, we felt it was a natural next step to continue expanding our alcohol RTD portfolio,” said Norman E. Snyder, CEO of Reed’s.
