The world of sparkling cocktails and seltzers is a screaming hot one. These drinks have been around for a few years now, and there’s zero turning back, it would seem. People everywhere have absolutely fallen in love with a canned adult beverage that doesn’t have to be beer, tastes incredible, comes in a variety of flavors, and — more often than not — has fewer calories than other boozy options. Yes, canned cocktails and hard fizzy seltzers are here to stay, like it or not. The problem now, though, is that with nearly every single alcohol brand jumping on the bandwagon, the market is more than saturated with choices. And while it’s good to have options, the sheer amount of hard seltzers and sparking cocktails in the liquor aisle can make your head spin well before you’ve even cracked a can. So we’re here to help spotlight one of the best ones on the market.

Spritz Society is a canned cocktail brand that uses natural ingredients to create delicious adult beverages that are both pure in taste and in integrity. Spritz Society boasts on its website, “We make our cocktails as delicious as possible. Because taste matters. Our ingredients naturally work together to create flavors we’re proud of.”

And those ingredients are simple. Their (exquisite) Grapefruit flavor, for example, contains only sparkling water, white wine, natural flavors, cane sugar, and citric acid. In addition to that goodness, each sparkling cocktail has a 100 percent white wine base, unlike so many other Seltzer brands that use malt liquor, a fermented malt alcohol base.

This simplicity of flavor and purity of ingredients comes across beautifully in each of the brand’s fruity flavors, including Blood Orange, Peach, Grapefruit, Pineapple, and Lemon. Of these flavors, every single one is true to itself without a hint of artificial flavor.

Reminiscent of a real white wine spritzer one might be served at a garden party, there isn’t a trace of the chemical harshness found in other brands. Easily (dangerously) drinkable, these cocktails are smooth and have just the perfect amount of fizz that won’t fall flat. Refreshingly blending the perfect mixture of sweetness and tart, each flavor tastes exactly as its name suggests, with effervescent bubbles releasing hints of fruit and wine with each burst.

And while the price point might be slightly higher than its more chemical-filled, stale-tasting competitors, the extra few dollars will be well spent for a flavor and experience that is truly beyond comparison to other drinks in the same lane. Conveniently, Spritz Society’s subscription service does offer a considerable discount with exclusive subscriber perks, so you will never have to be more than an arm’s reach away from one of these delicious drinks.

How to make the transfusion, the ultimate golf drink
Vodka, grape juice, ginger ale, and lime. What's not to love?
Cocktail that looks like a Transfusion

The history of golf is long and storied, and the appeal of it is as much about enjoying the landscape, the weather, and the company as the game itself. And that conviviality extends to the clubhouse after a game as well. If you've hung around gold fans for any length of time, one drink you're sure to have come across is the transfusion, a fruity and refreshing cocktail beloved by golfers everywhere.

And while there are countless famous golf course cocktails like the Azalea and the always popular Old Fashioned, we don’t think a day at the golf club is complete without a refreshing, flavorful transfusion.

Don’t let the name fool you: Harvey Wallbanger is a delicious drink
Learn the history of this oft overlooked classic drink
Harvey Wallbanger

When it comes to the annals of classic cocktails, you'll find many recipes that are still popular today -- and a few that have been mostly left behind in the past. But some of those drinks deserve to be brought back for consideration, like the Harvey Wallbanger. This drink is basically an updated screwdriver cocktail, as it takes the well-known combination of vodka and juice and adds a shot of Galliano.

Galliano is a herbal Italian liqueur, which you might know best from seeing its unusually tall bottle on bar shelves. With flavors of vanilla and anise, plus lots of other herbs in there, too, it helps give a richer and more complex taste to the typical vodka and orange juice combo. To finish up this cocktail, you throw in some nice garnishes like a maraschino cherry and an orange slice. These subtle changes keep the spirit of the screwdriver, but update it to something a bit more sophisticated and fancy.
