Both brands are committed to responsible drinking, with clear symbols on the cans reminding consumers to enjoy the beverage responsibly and only if of legal drinking age. The alcohol content will vary by region, but the global standard for the drink’s alcohol by volume (ABV) is set at 5%.

As the demand for ready-to-drink beverages continues to grow, this collaboration is set to make waves in the market. The BACARDÍ Mixed with Coca‑Cola RTD cocktail is expected to bring a new level of accessibility to one of the most iconic drink combinations ever, offering a taste of history in a can.
