Not gonna lie. I may not go out and buy that, but I have made similar cocktails at home, and they were pretty tasty.
Don’t bother getting the hard version of Arizona Iced Tea. Shit tastes like you’re drinking paint.
Thanks for the warning

Tang gets used quite often in my mixes 😆
Had friends over, and one asked if I could make a mimosa (I can, provided I have the ingredients - which I did not because we had already agreed on margaritas). Was like 😬 and looked around the kitchen. Improvised a white trash mimosa with Tang, lemon lime sparkling water, and vodka. It was deemed acceptable lol.
You should try long drink. Grapefruit and gin, lots of sugar though.
I have had them and it’s quite good
The terrible thing about these isn’t the fake orange juice combined with rot gut vodka, it’s that (at least in my area) they want twelve freaking dollars for this shit. That’s three bucks a can!
You could literally buy an entire jug of not-orange juice as well as a 750 ml bottle of vodka for less.
And it’ll taste better because it isn’t a seltzer
Don’t forget the gallon of topo chico to dilute everything to the point of almost no taste
I’ve seen worse stuff. I’ve caused worse stuff.
In my Chemistry uni times, I already prepared limoncello at home (vodka infused with lemon peels). Nothing weird, right. I even brought some to the uni parties, people loved that stuff.
And in the Organics lab one of the practical tasks was to synthesise isoamyl acetate, also known as banana oil. It’s completely safe as food/drink flavouring, but it has a clearly artificial banana flavour.
Then there’s that muppet connecting both things. He took inspiration of my limoncello, but he wanted to do things “like a chemist”. So he prepared a batch of isoamyl acetate, and used it to flavour vodka. He also used a buttload of sugar and yellow food dye. And he brought that to a uni party.
He called it “bananacello”. Everyone else, including me, called it “banana de plástico” (plastic banana). We still drunk it to the end, because “a good chemist likes alcohol” was our motto back then.
Zero grams sugar? That is not Sunny D
I’m guessing this is closer to a Sunny D flavored White Claw than anything else.
Faking the flavor of something that’s faking the flavor of something else. Genius.
Real OGs go for this seltzer instead.
Why am I just noticing that this is AI generated? Boooo. I was hoping it was real.
Ok, the test group people have concluded that if we go forward with “grape drank”, some people are going to get angry. I’ve invested all of my father’s money in this, I can’t back out now!
“Orange juice, purple stuff… Sunny D Vodka! Thanks, mom!”
Every canned cocktail I’ve ever had was awful, but some people like them.
This is just a pre-made screwdriver.
Yeah the metal interferes with the taste.
I like Zimas and Smirnoff Ice but those always come in glass. I bet they’d be weird in a can.
Drink cans are lined with plastic so you shouldn’t get any metal taste if you pour it into a glass before drinking. If you drink straight from the can you may get a slight taste.
Screwdrivers are typically made with orange juice. Sunny D is more like the equivalent of orange Koolaid.
I was interested till I saw it was seltzer. Screwdrivers don’t need to be bubbly. Sounds like they mashed a mimosa (good) with a screwdriver ( good) and it’s going to come out like a vodka infused mimosa, which I wouldn’t care for.
I like the bulleit old fashioned
To be fair that comes in a bottle. It definitely tastes like a certain type of old fashioned, but there are so many ways to make an old fashioned that not everybody’s going to like it.
Personally the bullet rye makes a good old fashioned in my book
Mmmm tide pod vodka
A younger me would sometimes go for what we called cosmonaut screwdrivers - vodka and tang
Does it come in Tang flavor?
That’s called a Poontang
Tang is better for sandwiches.
Fucking Tang! Got a shiver down my spine just from reading its name. Fucking disgusting shit, tasted like blinker fluid.
We called that a cosmonaut screwdriver

I’ll never understand how they can manage to make these pre-mixed liquor drinks so weak, yet they taste so strong. 4.5% is less alcohol than many beers. Are they just putting a teaspoon of liquor in these things and using artifical flavor to make it taste like vodka?
A good mixed drink should be about 30% liquor IMO. Your average liquor has an ABV of 40%, so unless my math is wrong, at a 30:70 ratio we should be in the 12% territory, not 4.5.
Screwdrivers with sunny d are better than regular OJ, IMO. The extra sweetness cuts out the alcohol taste more. But as a 0 sugar seltzer? The carbonic acid just makes alcohol like this taste like shit without added sugar.
They pump it full of sucrolose or similar so it tastes super sweet
Sometimes I drink a screwdriver because I want to drink, but I want to feel like I’m doing something healthy. This kills that illusion. I’ll pass.
Even OJ without alcohol isn’t exactly healthy.
Yeah, it’s got lots of sugar and stuff. It feels healthy though.
