You don’t have to leave home to enjoy a top-notch drink. Simply crack open one of Melograno’s canned cocktails! The San Diego-based brand’s minimally carbonated agave cocktails come in four flavors at 5% alcohol by volume and only 120 calories each. Shiva and Reza Mortazavi, the wife and husband team behind this innovative brand, set out to create a modern, high-quality canned cocktail. Their four flavors pay homage to their Persian heritage: Pomegranate Cosmopolitan (which started as their signature flavor), Melon Margarita, Orange Blossom Martini and Cucumber Lime Mojito. But the sophisticated flavor profiles aren’t the only upside–these nifty drinks aren’t ones you need to set down for a photo. Each can is beautifully designed and features a timeless look. You can find Melograno Cocktails in restaurants, resorts and liquor stores throughout Southern California.
