New RTD tequila cocktail line launched
International lifestyle and cannabis brand Cookies is expanding into the spirits category with the launch of Adios, a ready-to-drink (RTD) all natural beverage line crafted with ultra-premium tequila from Casa Rica and real fruit juice.
The move into spirits was a natural choice for Cookies and its founder and CEO Berner, who says: “Cookies has always been about pushing boundaries and delivering quality. With Adios, we’re bringing our energy into the tequila space–my spirit of choice–something fun, authentic, and perfect for any vibe.”
Adios beverages will drop in mid-August at retailers and directly to consumers with four vibrant flavours: Lime, Spicy, Mango, and Strawberry. Each flavour will be available in four-packs or in assorted Variety Packs that are perfect for barbecues and pool parties alike.
Through its partnership with Casa Rica, Cookies will elevate the RTD beverage category with Adios. Lovingly crafted by passionate distillers in Jalisco, Mexico, Casa Rica is committed to purity, transparency, and craftsmanship.
Their tequila is produced in small batches naturally with zero additives, local and natural agave, and distinctive flavour profiles for an ultra-smooth finish.
Produced in partnership with Labor Smart, Inc. (OTC: LTNC), Adios is the first spirits venture for Cookies and marks a milestone moment for LTNC, a public company focused on launching culturally relevant consumer brands with mass-market potential.
Labor Smart’s expertise ensures that every can of Adios delivers a consistent, bar-quality cocktail experience in a convenient, grab-and-go format.
“Adios is more than a beverage—it’s a cultural launch,” said Scott Darnell, Chief Strategy Officer of LTNC. “With Cookies, Berner, Casa Rica, Manny and our national DTC infrastructure all behind this launch, we’ve built something that doesn’t just enter the market—it commands attention. This is a generational play in the RTD space.”
Distributed by CKS Distro, one of the most disruptive beverage distribution companies in the U.S., Adios is set to make a national splash. Known for its rapid scaling of culturally relevant brands, CKS Distro brings deep retail relationships, speed-to-shelf execution, and a proven track record in the RTD space—now expanding into premium tequila-based beverages.
“As a 100% woman-owned Latino American business, I’m incredibly proud and excited about this launch and the journey ahead,” said Adriana Rios Garcia Shaw, CEO of CKS Distro. “This milestone represents more than just a product—it’s a celebration of culture, resilience, and the power of representation.”
