Bluebird Hardwater’s First-Ever Canned Hardwater Beverage

Bluebird Hardwater

Bluebird Hardwater creates the first and only canned hardwater beverages. Utilizing only two ingredients, each 12-ounce serving of hardwater is the perfect combination of premium spirits with ultra-purified water. It ditches the carbonation (zero bubbles), preservatives, sugars, fake flavors, and artificial sweeteners that typically accompany alcoholic beverages.

Bluebird Hardwater is offered in three different options:

VODKA + WATER: Made with a clear, smooth 10x distilled vodka, VODKA + WATER is a bright pour that highlights the clean taste of vodka without any of the typical burn.

TEQUILA + WATER: Crafted with a Mexican Blanco tequila made from agave, TEQUILA + WATER is a crisp drink that’s smooth start-to-finish.

WHISKEY + WATER: Mixed with a sweet, warm aged whiskey, WHISKEY + WATER tastes like the perfect last sip of whiskey on the rocks.

Bluebird Hardwater prioritizes a light, clean, and high-quality beverage while ditching the carbonation, preservatives, sugars, and artificial sweeteners ingredients.

Extend Your Product Shelf-Life with aTULC Can Packaging

American Canning

In 2022, American Canning, an Austin-based can packaging company, introduced aluminum Toyo Ultimate Can (aTULC) packaging to the United States for the first time in a brand-new, compactconcept can manufacturing line designed specifically for craft.

Developed by Toyo Seikan Group Holdings in Tokyo, Japan, aTULC is an award-winning and trusted technology that promotes an innovative alternative to traditionally manufactured aluminum cans. Rather than applying internal coatings by spray application post production, aTULC cans are made from BPA-free, pre-coated aluminum sheet. This creates a more consistent and robust barrier between the raw aluminum and the can contents, which is particularly beneficial for storing higher-acidity products. Pre-coating also eliminates the need for water and/or any lubricating and washing chemicals within the manufacturing plant. Added benefits of the aTULC liner include minimal flavor absorption and drastically increased shelfstability for hard-to-hold products.

To discover the complete benefits of aTULC and learn more about how this packaging solution not only protects your brand, but the environment as well, contact American Canning. Low minimum order quantities, quick lead times, and volume and bundling discounts available. Brite cans, shrink-sleeve and printed decorations options, all from Austin, TX, USA.

AZ Laboratories will help ensure the safety of your product so you can rest assured when consumers are stocking up their carts with your product. With our fast turnaround times, competitive pricing, and an open representative to help answer any questions at any time, we hope you think of us here at AZ Laboratories to be your trusted laboratory partner.
