Pickleball & Long Drink: The MVPs of Fun

You know that feeling when you’re in the zone, paddle in hand, ready to smash the competition? Or maybe you’re just here for the good vibes, friendly trash talk, and an excuse to sip something cold between sets. Either way, there’s one thing that makes EVERY pickleball game better: an ice-cold Long Drink.

Why Long Drink is the GOAT of Game-Day Sips

  • Pairs perfectly with pickleball (duh!)  Light, crisp, and citrusy, it’s the drink that keeps you refreshed while you rally.
  • Easy to drink, easy to love  No mixing, no hassle, just pop, sip, and enjoy.
  • Keeps you in the game  Unlike heavy beers, Long Drink is smooth, refreshing, and won’t slow you down.

     

The Ultimate Pickleball Play: Game, Sip, Laugh, Repeat

Picture this: the sun is shining, the court is calling, and you and your crew are locked in a legendary match. Between the epic shots (and hilarious misses), you crack open a Long Drink. That first sip? Pure refreshment. That last sip? A celebration of your undeniable skills, or at least your ability to make everyone laugh.

And when the game is over? The real fun begins. Because whether you win, lose, or spend half the match arguing about the rules, Long Drink is there to keep the party going.

A Sip Through History: The Finnish Long Drink

Before we dive into the perfect pairing of pickleball and Long Drink, let’s take a quick trip back to 1952 Finland. The country was gearing up to host the Summer Games and wanted to impress international visitors with a refreshing beverage that could be served quickly to large crowds. The government commissioned the creation of a unique liquor drink, and thus, the first Long Drinks were born, a delicious blend of citrus soda and premium liquor. This revolutionary concoction became a national sensation and remains a staple in Finnish culture today.

Explore the Flavor Lineup

Long Drink offers a variety of flavors to suit every palate:

  • Traditional Citrus: The original blend of citrus soda with a premium liquor kick.
  • Zero Sugar Citrus: All the authentic flavor with zero sugar, zero carbs, and just 99 calories.
  • Strong Citrus: The authentic citrus flavor, now with 8.5% alc/vol for a stronger liquor kick.
  • Cranberry: A crisp and refreshing cranberry twist on the classic Long Drink.
  • Peach: A juicy and flavorful peach-infused variation.

So grab a can, rally your squad, and let’s make some legendary pickleball memories, one sip at a time. 🍋🏓 Cheers!
