A RTD cocktail is a pre-mixed alcoholic beverage that is typically sold in a can or bottle. RTD cocktails are convenient because they require no additional mixing or preparation, making them ideal for parties or other events where alcohol will be served. There are a variety of RTD cocktails available, including popular options such as Moscow Mules, Margaritas, and Bloody Marys. RTD cocktails are typically made with lower-quality alcohol, so they are not as strong as cocktails made from scratch. However, RTD cocktails can still be potent, so it is important to drink them responsibly.
They are a practical choice that enables customers to take advantage of pre-made drinks at home or when traveling. These beverages often contain less alcohol. Cocktails that are ready to drink are flavor-infused, carbonated alcoholic beverages with lower fat and sugar content than other alcoholic beverages. RTD cocktails provide customers a handy option to enjoy their preferred alcoholic beverages without going to a restaurant or bar as busy lifestyles increasingly trend towards decadent experiences at home.

COVID-19 Impact:
During the pre-COVID-19 pandemic scenario, there was an upward trend of consumers drinking fewer alcoholic beverages. Due to the popularity of hard seltzers, the ready-to-drink (RTD) category of alcohol saw the fastest growth in 2019. The development and practicality of hard seltzers, or alcoholic sparkling water, in the US and Colorado have helped the RTD sector. In the US and Colorado, hard seltzers have gained from being low-calorie and low-sugar and attracting customers who are 'searching for refreshing and tasty alternatives.' The category must also appeal to people of all ages and genders to compete with beer, wine, and spirits.

The demand for the product in the US and Colorado area grew in 2021 as operations in offline retail channels that sell RTD drinks, such as convenience shops, liquor stores, hypermarkets, and supermarkets gradually returned to normal.
