Craftwell Cocktails® Introduces Purple Rain Drop – The Latest Shimmering Showstopper in Its Top Shelf Line


A dazzling reinvention of the Lemon Drop—crafted with natural botanicals, fresh lemon, and an irresistible violet hue that shimmers with glitter.

CORVALLIS, OR  – March 13, 2025 – You don’t have to be rich to indulge in this royal treat. Craftwell Cocktails® proudly introduces Purple Rain Drop, a limited-time, top shelf creation that’s as mesmerizing as it is delicious. With a bold 20.5% ABV, this sparkling reinvention of the cocktail formerly known as the Lemon Drop displays a violet hue that shimmers with edible glitter and parties like it’s 1999.

Crafted with bright citrus from fresh lemon, delicate floral notes, and the magic of butterfly pea flower, Purple Rain Drop shimmers with a deep, royal purple hue. No artificial colors—just a natural reaction that turns this cocktail into pure liquid luxury.

“Purple Rain Drop isn’t just a cocktail—it’s an experience,” explains Dave Takush, head cidermaker at 2 Towns Ciderhouse. “ I never thought  we’d be shopping for a glitter doser, but watching it in action on our assembly line was unforgettable—everyone stopped to see the magic happen. This is unlike anything we’ve ever created.”
