  • Canned cocktails: where state law permits spirit-based drinks at convenience stores.

Spirit-based vs malt-based

Many "cocktail" cans are malt-based so they can be sold where beer is sold. Spirit-based canned cocktails are only allowed at convenience stores in some states. Check the label for "made with vodka" or "malt beverage."
