## ABSOLUT & OCEAN SPRAY® INTRODUCE NEW DOUBLE READY-TO-DRINK VODKA CRANBERRY CANS

*The culturally iconic Vodka Cranberry gets a bolder upgrade with two shots of Absolut Vodka and real Ocean Spray® cranberry juice, no bartender or mixing required*

Absolut Vodka and Ocean Spray are CRAN-king up the iconic Vodka Cranberry with the launch of Absolut & Ocean Spray Double Vodka Cranberry Ready-to-Drink Cocktails. Made with premium Absolut Vodka and real Ocean Spray cranberry juice, the new 9% ABV canned cocktails deliver a bolder take on the Vodka Cranberry.

The Vodka Cranberry is having a moment. From bars and pre-games to social feeds, the iconic combination has re-emerged as a go-to order for those seeking uncomplicated classics. Equal parts nostalgic and effortless, the Vodka Cranberry has become a symbol of confidence, simplicity and knowing exactly what you want. Now, the brand duo that helped define the category is raising the bar once again. Building on their award-winning partnership1, Absolut and Ocean Spray are introducing a more elevated, high-energy expression of the beloved serve. With two shots of Absolut Vodka, real Ocean Spray cranberry juice, 9% ABV, and no bubbles, artificial colors or sweeteners, Absolut & Ocean Spray Double is designed for consumers seeking a little more intensity from their ready-to-drink cocktails without compromising on taste.

The launch also arrives as demand for higher-ABV RTDs continues to accelerate, with the segment growing 28% year-over-year and outpacing lower-ABV alternatives.² As consumers increasingly gravitate toward convenient cocktails that deliver both flavor and strength, Absolut & Ocean Spray Double answers the call with a refreshingly straightforward proposition: the Vodka Cran you love, turned all the way up.
