Toucan Cocktails—and their innovative Two-Can technology—has received distinct recognition for their products in the 2025 RTD Magazine Ready-To-Drink Cocktail Editor's Choice Awards, earning two "Top Pick" designations.
With Toucan Cocktails, there’s no need for multiple ingredients, measuring, or mixing—just shake, pour, and enjoy. Whether you’re at a rooftop party, a beach getaway, or a cozy night in, we bring the perfect cocktail experience to you.
Best Vodka Based Ready-To-Drink Cocktail
One of their lineup's newest additions, the Toucan Cosmo wowed the judges with its deep pink color and balanced aromatic profile of cranberry, orange, and citrus. Upon cracking both containers and mixing, this canned cosmopolitan cocktail continued to impress, with flavors that perfectly matched the previously noted bouquet of fragrances. The sweet start and tactfully tart finish—both hallmarks of a good cosmopolitan—blended beautifully with this drink's smooth and earthy vodka essence which, consequently, is easy to detect and enjoy at a robust 100 proof. Overall, the judges found the Toucan Cosmo to be an exceptionally well executed canned cocktail, rivaling any expertly-made, hand-crafted version from cocktail bars and restaurants alike.
Best Ready-To-Drink Espresso Martini
Not to be denied, the Toucan Espresso Martini also made an appearance on the podium by securing a top pick designation from the awards competition judges. One of the brand's original flagship recipes, the sweet vanilla scent and rich coffee notes proved to be the perfect prequel to what lay ahead, as the panel was equally as impressed with the flavor as they were with the aromas. The subtly sweet vanilla proved to be the perfect co-star to this canned espresso martini's main characters, the bold coffee flavors and the vodka's rustic essence. Both strong and smooth-drinking, the combination was simply too good and one that could not be overlooked in the awards process.
Toucan Cocktails 2025 RTD Cocktail Awards Honorable Mention
The Toucan Cocktails Paloma also competed in the RTD Magazine 2025 ready-to-drink cocktail awards. And while not locking down a top spot in the Editor's Choice Awards in an extraordinarily competitive field, this canned paloma cocktail still received a gold medal score and honorable mention from our judges. Additional entries that competed previously in 2024 and received accolades were the Top Pick Toucan Cocktails Old Fashioned and the Toucan Cocktails Margarita, which received recognition as the best overall ready-to-drink margarita. The Toucan Cocktails Lemon Drop Martini was also a competitor in 2024, receiving a gold medal score and honorable mention from our panel.
