Our Fav 17 RTD Cocktail Cans

If you were looking for the biggest story in the world of booze this past year, it was the rise of the RTD cocktail (that's a ready-to-drink cocktail, kids). With bars closing their doors because of the pandemic and then re-opening with limited capacity, the writing was on the wall-consumers missed their bartenders, and they definitely did not want to shake, stir, or muddle themselves an expertly-crafted drink. What's more, they were popping up in cans because, you know, everything comes in an aluminum vessel now? 

Regardless, we've been ogling these for years now. In September and October alone, sales rose 131% for RTD cocktails, a hint that these canned wonders might be around for a little while. So rip into one of those canned 'ritas you've got in the back of the fridge, and check out some of our the most beautiful RTD drinks we've seen this past year.
