Long Drink Cocktails

Long Drink Cocktails are refreshing ready-to-drink beverages inspired by Finland’s legendary “Lonkero,” a crisp gin-based cocktail first created for the 1952 Summer Olympics in Helsinki. Combining premium liquor with sparkling citrus flavors, Long Drink has become one of the fastest-growing canned cocktail categories thanks to its smooth taste, balanced carbonation, and easy-drinking style. Unlike many malt beverages or overly sweet hard seltzers, Long Drink Cocktails are made with real spirits, delivering a cleaner and more refreshing drinking experience. 

Originally created to quickly serve visitors during the Helsinki Olympics, the Finnish Long Drink became a cultural staple across Finland and eventually gained global popularity for its crisp flavor and approachable profile. Today, Long Drink Cocktails continue that tradition by blending premium gin with natural fruit flavors and sparkling citrus for a modern ready-to-drink cocktail that feels both refreshing and sophisticated. 

At Juicefly, you can explore several delicious Long Drink Cocktail varieties, including Cranberry, Traditional, Strong, Peach, and the Zero Sugar Variety Pack featuring Traditional Citrus, Citrus, Peach, and Pineapple flavors.

Authentic Finnish-Inspired Ready-to-Drink Cocktails

What makes Long Drink Cocktails stand out is their authentic Finnish cocktail heritage. Unlike many canned alcoholic beverages that rely on malt liquor or fermented sugar bases, Long Drink uses real gin blended with sparkling citrus soda and natural fruit flavors. This creates a crisp, refreshing profile with subtle botanical character and balanced sweetness. 

Crisp, Light, and Refreshing

Long Drink Cocktails are designed to be smooth and highly drinkable. The sparkling carbonation and citrus-forward flavor profile make them perfect for warm weather, social gatherings, outdoor events, or casual nights at home.

Premium Gin-Based Flavor

The gin base gives Long Drink a cleaner and more refined taste compared to traditional hard seltzers. Subtle juniper and citrus notes add complexity while keeping the overall profile refreshing and approachable.

Explore Long Drink Cocktail Flavors

Long Drink Cocktails are available in multiple flavor varieties designed to match different taste preferences.

Traditional Long Drink

The Traditional flavor is the classic Finnish-inspired recipe featuring refreshing grapefruit citrus flavor balanced with smooth gin and sparkling carbonation. Crisp, bright, and lightly botanical, this remains the signature Long Drink experience. 

Cranberry Long Drink

Cranberry Long Drink adds tart berry flavor to the classic citrus-and-gin combination. The result is a refreshing cocktail with subtle sweetness and balanced acidity that makes it especially enjoyable year-round.

Peach Long Drink

Peach Long Drink delivers juicy peach flavor layered over sparkling citrus and premium gin. Slightly sweeter and fruitier than the Traditional variety, Peach offers a smooth and refreshing twist perfect for summer gatherings and casual drinking occasions.

Strong Long Drink

For those who prefer a bolder cocktail experience, Strong Long Drink features higher alcohol content while maintaining the crisp citrus flavor and smooth finish the brand is known for. Despite the stronger profile, it remains balanced and refreshing. 

Zero Sugar Variety Pack

The Zero Sugar Variety Pack offers all the refreshing flavor of Long Drink with no added sugar. Featuring Traditional Citrus, Citrus, Peach, and Pineapple flavors, this pack is ideal for people looking for lighter cocktail options without sacrificing taste. The zero sugar formulas maintain crisp carbonation and clean fruit flavor while offering a lower-calorie alternative. 

A Better Alternative to Hard Seltzers

Long Drink Cocktails have gained popularity among drinkers looking for something more flavorful and premium than standard hard seltzers.

Real Liquor Base

Unlike many canned beverages made with malt alcohol, Long Drink Cocktails use real gin, creating a smoother and more authentic cocktail experience. 

Balanced Sweetness

Long Drink avoids the overly sugary taste common in many ready-to-drink cocktails. The flavor profile stays clean, crisp, and refreshing without becoming heavy or syrupy.

Perfect for Social Drinking

With moderate alcohol content and refreshing carbonation, Long Drink Cocktails are ideal for day drinking, outdoor events, beach trips, barbecues, tailgates, and relaxing weekends.

Inspired by Finland’s Legendary “Lonkero”

The Finnish Long Drink, known locally as “Lonkero,” has been part of Finnish drinking culture since the 1950s. Originally created as a convenient gin-and-grapefruit cocktail for Olympic visitors, it quickly became one of Finland’s most beloved beverages and remains widely enjoyed today.

International Cocktail Trend
