One of the best, most refreshing RTD's on the market, Elenita Pineapple Jalapeño functions as a cross between a mixed drink and hard seltzer. It's flavors are light, natural, and play in the background of the carbonation giving this the feel of a hard seltzer but the presence of Mezcal makes it almost feel like a fruit juice mixer. It's a refreshing, welcome balance that never veers into artificial flavoring or unnecessary sugar. At 7% ABV it also provides a pleasant buzz without being too boozy or light. The carbonation is on point as well, never becoming overpowering or feeling flat. Poured in a glass it smells of fragrant pineapple with a prominent smoky kick from the mezcal. There's also a lingering spicy kick in the back end but you can't smell it from the can. The taste is sublime. You're greeted by a very pleasant mix of pineapple, cooked agave and good carbonation playing off each other at just the right amounts. The mid palate has the smokiness of the Mezcal introducing itself without overpowering the flavors and towards the back mid palate the faint taste of jalapeño is noticeable, though it's very subtle. Blink and you miss it but it rounds out the experience quite nicely if you look for it. The finish has a light spicy kick from the jalapeño complementing the carbonation and fading away into a fresh pineapple juice finish. This is one of the best RTDs on the market showcasing a rare balance and favoring natural tasting ingredients. It also feels true to the experience of drinking a Mezcal mixed drink. I just wish the jalapeño was a bit more prominent but that's nitpicking a great experience. Be sure to get this for your summer adventures!
