The convenient single serve 24 oz can delivers a genuine Michelada experience, without having to mix all the ingredients. Additionally, Dos Equis Mango Chelada will be hitting shelves this fall. Available in a single serve 24 oz can, each serving contains 4.1% ABV.
-
Dos Equis Mango Margarita: Joining the Dos Equis Classic Lime Margarita, the ready-to-drink margarita blends Blanco Tequila from Jalisco, México with mango juice and high-quality ingredients, giving you the craft cocktail experience at the crack of a can. Available in a 4 pack, each 12 oz can contain 10% ABV.
“As we continue to grow the Dos Equis portfolio, we are taking a look at what our customers are choosing to drink and creating products inspired by those choices,” said Ligia Patrocinio, Senior Brand Director, Dos Equis, HEINEKEN USA. “With the summer months approaching and more occasions to celebrate, we know that ready-to-drink products are what people are seeking to share with family and friends. We are also looking forward to introducing Dos Equis Lime & Salt ZERO to market, giving consumers another option for when they can’t or don’t want to drink.”
Also, on shelves and ready to be enjoyed this summer, is Dos Equis Ranch Water Hard Seltzer, inspired by the flavors of the classic West Texas refreshment, Dos Equis Lager Especial, a golden pilsner-style beer, Dos Equis Ambar Especial, a Vienna-style lager, and Dos Equis Lime & Salt, the Dos Equis Lager beer with a touch of lime and salt, and the inspiration for Dos Equis Lime & Salt ZERO.
