It’s officially the first day of summer—and for me, that means three essentials: baseball, barbecues, and cool treats. While I’ll never say no to some time on the trail or track, there’s something about settling in on a warm evening with a nostalgic snack (or drink) in hand that just feels like summer.
And speaking of nostalgia, let’s talk Rocket Pops. You know the one—red, white, and blue; cherry, lime, and blue raspberry; that icy treat that’s been a summer staple since 1955. Just the thought of one takes me right back to sticky fingers and big smiles.
Well, the crew at Avid Cider Company must’ve felt the same, because their newest seasonal drop—Rocket Pop—is basically childhood summer in a can, with an adult twist.

This cider is bursting with those familiar flavors:
- Cherry
- Lime
- Raspberry
It’s bright, bold, and refreshingly sweet—perfect for sipping by the grill, in the bleachers, or anywhere you’re soaking up the sunshine. While it definitely leans a bit on the sweeter side, it still finishes crisp, making it a seriously smooth summer sipper.
Whether you’re cracking open a single can or rolling up with a six-pack, Rocket Pop is here for your warm weather line-up. Find it now at your local grocery store, bottle shop, or wherever Avid is stocked.
Summer just got a whole lot cooler.
