Up to 40 percent of the firms making Mexico’s tequila may halt production because of a chronic shortage of their main raw ingredient, the cactus-like agave plant. With the increase of tequila’s popularity the demand has past the amount of supply. (Photo by Joe Raedle/Newsmakers)
(Photo by Joe Raedle/Newsmakers)You've heard the phrase, "ain't now laws when you're drinking claws." But now get ready for "no more rules with Rey Azuls."
Mark Anthony Brands International, the same company that makes White Claw, has created a new tequila-based canned alcoholic beverage. Tampa is one of four test markets that will be able to try it.
The canned tequila beverage, Rey Azul, is already set and ready to go with three flavors; lime cucumber, mango sea salt, and pineapple jalapeño. Each drink will contain 100 calories with 5% alcohol per volume. 4-packs are expected to sell at $12.99, which is a little more expensive than regular White Claw. Most 12-packs of White Claw sell between $15-$20.
Tampa Bay Times reports Rey Azul will be available on store shelves later this month. Expect to find the drinks at Tampa area ABC Fine Wine & Spirits, Total Wine and More, and Walmart. They'll also sell at 7-Eleven and Circle K gas stations.
