Cocktails in cans?

Americans have been drinking beer out of cans since 1935.

And, more recently, wine and fizzy drinks containing alcohol have become available in cans as well. So Simplicity Cocktails’ founders Chris Weed and Chad Linville thought—why not canned cocktails?

Weed and Linville, following years of R&D, have created Utah’s first company specializing in canned cocktails. The canned drinks are perfect for picnics, concerts, camping, boating, fishing, or any outdoor events and occasions where a cooler of cocktails is appropriate and convenient. They also taste pretty darned good indoors and out on the patio at home.

Simplicity Co-Founders Chris Weed & Chad Linville

Simplicity kicks off with four canned cocktail options: Gin & Tonic, Moscow Mule, Cadillac Margarita, and Vodka Soda. The first two are currently available at Utah State Liquor stores; the latter two are available via special order from the UDABC.
