LIQS Cocktail Shots Now in Marlborough

Premium, "ready-to-drink" cocktail shots in all-natural flavors, are now available in Marlborough.

BOSTON, MA (August 26, 2014) – LIQS Cocktail Shot, the world’s first premium ready-to-drink “Cocktail Shot” brand, launches this month in Massachusetts. LIQS Cocktail Shots are a hybrid between a bartender-quality cocktail with the portability of a shot sealed in a high quality plastic shot glass. They are fun, delicious and serve as the perfect party starter, addition to a BBQ or pool party, for a night on the town or for celebratory occasions. These portable shots combine top-shelf spirits with the high quality flavors seen in traditional craft cocktails to bring a potent, low calorie alternative with no preservatives or artificial flavors.

In Marlborough, they now are available in single flavor “three-packs” at a price of $7.99 at the following stores:

· Plaza Liquors – 222 East Main Street, Marlborough; 508.460.6116

Created by Founders Michael Glickman and Harley Bauer in 2013, LIQS Cocktail Shots first debuted in Florida after two years in development used to perfect the flavor profiles and to create the innovative packaging. LIQS Cocktail Shot now is entering its second market, Massachusetts, and soon will expand to Texas. Together, Glickman and Bauer have set out to elevate the shot experience by combining convenience and portability with quality.

“We’ve spent a lot of time studying the spirits industry and Massachusetts really stood out to us as an ideal place to expand the LIQS brand,” said Michael Glickman, Founder of LIQS Cocktail Shot. “It has an incredible city and with its strong demographic of young professionals, we hope ‘LIQS’ will become synonymous with quality, portable ‘shots’ in this market.” Adds Co-Founder, Harley Bauer, “The sophisticated drinker is no longer satisfied with low-grade spirits and artificial ingredients.”

LIQS Cocktail Shots come in a variety of four all-natural flavors: Tequila· Cinnamon · Orange, made with 99% agave tequila infused with a blend of subtle cinnamon and fresh orange to produce an irresistible balance of spicy and sweet (55 proof; 120 calories); Vodka · Cucumber · Lime, a six-time distilled vodka shot with the cooling nature of cucumber combined with the citrus of lime (45 proof; 90 calories); Vodka · Kamikaze, an improvement on this nightlife staple with six-times distilled vodka infused with the finest citrus and a hint of natural vanilla (45 proof; 100 calories); and, Vodka · Lychee · Grapefruit, a perfectly pink mix of six-times distilled vodka balanced with the citrus of grapefruit and the sweetness of lychee to create a fruit-forward option that is not cloying (45 proof; 90 calories). Produced in the United States, LIQS Cocktail Shots also are kosher and use recyclable plastic containers.

Available in single flavor “three-packs” that retail for $7.99 each, LIQS will roll-out this month in over 100 liquor stores throughout Massachusetts. By year’s end, Glickman anticipates that LIQS Cocktail Shots will be available in several hundred liquor stores in the Commonwealth as well as different consumer markets like upscale lounges and nightclubs, in hotel room mini-bars and through event planners and catering companies.
