🎉 What Are BuzzBallz?
BuzzBallz are pre-mixed, single-serve cocktails made with real fruit juice, natural flavors, and premium spirits or wine. They come in iconic spherical packaging that’s eye-catching, recyclable, and—let’s be honest—fun to say and fun to drink.
Each BuzzBallz drink clocks in at around 15-20% ABV, making it a small but mighty punch in a palm-sized container. Best served chilled or over ice, they’re a party favorite from Austin to Amarillo.
