Refreshingly light flavor and uniquely crisp Kentucky Coolers feature fan-favorite flavor combinations that are best enjoyed in the company of others.
With four new flavors, Jim Beam Kentucky Coolers will build on the success of its lemonade varieties, introducing Blueberry Lemonade and Strawberry Lemonade, as well as put its own southern spin on a beloved east coast cocktail, “the crush,” debuting Orange Crush and Peach Crush.
For maximum convenience and shareability, Jim Beam Kentucky Coolers’ four new flavors are making their way to shelves nationwide in an all-new variety 12pk / 12oz cans. Here is what fans can expect from the new flavors:
