Award-winning moonshine, new canned cocktail available at Fenway Park this season

GATLINBURG, Tenn. (April 21, 2022) – Sugarlands Distilling Co., an award-winning craft distillery, along with the nine-time World Champion Boston Red Sox today announced a multi-year strategic partnership. As part of the deal, Sugarlands becomes a “Proud Partner of the Boston Red Sox” and will also produce a ready-to-drink (RTD) co-branded iced tea lemonade moonshine canned cocktail, unique to the New England market.

Sugarlands Iced Tea Lemonade Moonshine Cocktail is a crisp, refreshing RTD cocktail bearing the Red Sox iconic logo. Made from a blend of iced tea, lemonade and Sugarlands’ award-winning, signature moonshine, the Iced Tea Lemonade RTD boasts flavors of lemon, black sassafras and cane sugar. This new Iced Tea Lemonade RTD will be available at Fenway Park and various retailers throughout New England.

“The Red Sox are one of the most iconic and recognizable names in all of professional sports and we’re thrilled to welcome them to the Sugarlands family,” said Ned Vickers, president and founder of Sugarlands Distilling Company.

“At Fenway Park, our goal is to deliver a variety of beverage options to our fans to ensure everyone can find something that appeals to them,” said Red Sox Executive Vice President Troup Parkinson. “We are excited to work with Sugarlands and introduce their ready-to-drink cocktail to Red Sox fans this season.”

In addition to the Red Sox, Sugarlands has strategic partnerships with the Atlanta Braves, Baseball Hall of Famer Chipper Jones, New Orleans Saints, Grammy-nominated country superstar Cole Swindell, platinum-selling recording artist O.A.R., Major League Bow Hunting, New Orleans Saints, Rahal Letterman Lanigan Racing and multiple Speedway Motorsports properties.
