Looking to make a splash in the alcohol business, and offer up some nostalgia, the orange beverage SunnyD announced it is going to get an adult rebrand this month in the form of a vodka soda drink.
SunnyD shared the news in a press release, saying that its new SunnyD Vodka Soda drinks would be available starting March 11, exclusively at Walmart.
The vodka soda drinks will have an ABV of 4.5%, just under other alcoholic seltzers like White Claws and Truly Vodka Seltzers, which typically have a 5% ABV.
SunnyD has been around for nearly 60 years, and while at first they were in lunchpails and drank in cafeterias or on field trips, it has become common for them to be used as mixers for alcohol, the company shared.
Because of this, the decision was made to add the new spiked SunnyD to the lineup, which includes several other flavors.
