78 BEVNET MAGAZINE – JANUARY/FEBRUARY 2022

Launched in 2014 by female-founder Bronya Shillo, Fishers Island Lemonade was inspired by the signature house cocktail, the “FIL,” served for decades at The Pequot Inn, which Bronya’s family owned and operated on Fishers Island, NY. It was there, that while working as a bartender, Bronya had the visionary idea to package the Fishers Island Lemonade cocktail in a can, allowing fans to take the delicious and distinctly flavorful cocktail with them to best enjoy in their happy place, wherever that may be. All-natural ingredients, premium vodka and barrel-aged whiskey are the base for the full-flavor family of craft lemonade cocktails, which now include Fishers Island Lemonade Original (9% ABV), Fishers Spiked Tea (7% ABV), Fishers Pink Flamingo (7% ABV), Fishers Fizz (5% ABV) and Fishers Island Spirit Pops (7% ABV). Fishers Island Lemonade is gluten-free and recognized as the leading craft lemonade canned cocktail brand, winning dozens of gold medal awards for its one-of-a-kind taste profile and commitment to high quality ingredients. Fishers Island Lemonade has been equally committed to giving back to the community with several philanthropic efforts since the brand’s inception.

Volley is designed to be the cleanest seltzer possible using 3 simple ingredients. 100% blue agave tequila, sparkling water, and organic juice (never from concentrate).

Founders (husband and wife duo) Chris and Camila, are on a mission to build awareness around the clean drinking movement and have introduced an innovative aluminum protective foil to keep their cans clean both inside and out. Studies show that 8 of 10 cans on shelves have concerning levels of bacteria. Volley is proud not to be one of them. At 5.25% abv, Volley is a light refreshing alternative to malt based seltzers. Volley is currently sold online at drinkvolley.com as well as in 14 states across the country. The products are manufactured in Jalisco, Mexico and the brand is based in Charleston, South Carolina. 88 BEVNET MAGAZINE – JANUARY/FEBRUARY 2022
