Drink of the Week: LiveWire Tropipop

I recognize the idea of canned cocktails: with the ability to crack open and revel in a cocktail simply as simply as a beer. They’re exceedingly helpful in the case of stuffing ice chests and entertaining crowds. However usually, after I sip a canned cocktail, I discover myself wishing it was freshly made—besides after I drink LiveWire canned cocktails. In contrast to many canned cocktails which are merely ready-to-serve variations of classics, LiveWire options unique recipes created by celebrated bartenders. I’m a longtime fan of the Rocket Queen and Honeydew Collins, and these days, I’ve a brand new favourite: LiveWire Tropipop, a Piña Colada soda.

In contrast to the opposite cocktails in LiveWire’s lineup, Tropipop is predicated on an already present canned cocktail. Mike Capoferri initially made it for his Los Angeles bar, Thunderbolt. Throughout the pandemic, when bars had been specializing in drinks to-go, Capoferri was providing next-level carry-out cocktails, together with bottled Espresso Martinis, bagged Previous Fashioneds, and this canned Piña Colada soda. Minimize to 3 years later, and regardless that the opposite to-go drinks are now not accessible, Tropipop—made with rum, coconut, pineapple, and lactose—stays on the bar’s menu. And now it’s accessible nationwide by LiveWire. I extremely advocate stocking up on it should you’re trying to deliver some tropical vibes to your subsequent vacation social gathering. 8-pack/$56, drinklivewire.com
