Captain Morgan, the spiced rum brand, and Pepsi MAX, the cola, have come together to create a pre-mix drink.
The pairing of these two iconic brands blends Captain Morgan Original Spiced Gold’s sweet and spiced notes with the crisp, cool taste of Pepsi Max to create a smooth flavour in a convenient pre-mixed can, with an ABV of 5%.
Available exclusively in Great Britain, Captain Morgan Original Spiced Gold and Pepsi Max will hit shelves nationwide and are available now.
Eleanor Morgan, Marketing Manager GB, at Captain Morgan, said: “With a shared emphasis on fun, our partnership with Pepsi MAX brings together two iconic brands to create one epic taste. Both brands have strong taste credentials and bring their own distinctive flavour profile to the mix, creating the ultimate duo that’s been expertly blended to deliver a great taste.”
Natalia Filippociants, General Manager Beverages at PepsiCo UK, added: “At PepsiCo, we’re always looking for new opportunities to meet our consumers’ changing tastes and demands by bringing new, innovative products to market.
