The Sagamore Spirit Rye Orange Crush craft canned cocktail is an elevated take on the original namesake cocktail from Ocean City, Maryland for drinkers of all ranges to try out. The cocktail is a new take on the 30-year-old original, and boasts the distiller’s straight rye whiskey along with orange juice, lemon juice and lime juice with a touch of additional natural orange flavor. The use of whiskey in place of vodka in the recipe lends greater flavor complexity, while the 8% ABV gives the drink just the right amount of bite.
VP of Distillery Operations Ryan Norwood commented on the Sagamore Spirit Rye Orange Crush craft canned cocktail saying, “The Orange Crush cocktail was a natural choice to translate to cans not only because it originated in our home state, but also because of how well the citrus and honey notes hold up to our rye whiskey. It’s a genuine taste of Maryland summer.”
