Quick Facts: ABV: 10%  |  Origin: Columbia, South Carolina, USA  |  Style: Premium Malt Beverage  |  Producer: American Vintage Beverage Co. (Mark Anthony Brands)

Production & Heritage

Cayman Jack falls under the American Vintage Beverage Co. umbrella, headquartered in Chicago, Illinois, and part of the larger Mark Anthony Brands portfolio — the same group behind White Claw and Mike's Hard Lemonade. The Strawberry Margarita is produced at the Mark Anthony Brewing facility in Columbia, South Carolina, using the company's patented PureBrew process, a proprietary brewing method that the company credits with giving its malt-based beverages a cleaner, more distinctive flavor profile. Unlike spirit-based RTD margaritas, this is a flavored malt beverage built on a brewed alcohol base, then blended with blue agave nectar, real cane sugar, real lime juice, and natural strawberry flavoring to approximate the margarita experience at a potent 10% ABV.

Tasting Notes

Aroma: Upfront ripe strawberry sweetness dominates the nose, leaning toward candy-like strawberry rather than fresh fruit. A faint citrus note from the lime juice sits underneath, along with a mild sugary warmth.

Taste: The palate opens with an immediate burst of sweet strawberry that recalls hard strawberry candy. Mid-palate, the blue agave nectar and cane sugar add a dense, syrupy sweetness, while the lime juice provides a zesty counterpoint that keeps things from going entirely one-dimensional. At 10% ABV, there is a noticeable boozy punch that cuts through the sweetness on the back end, adding a surprising layer of boldness.

Finish: Medium in length with a jammy strawberry note that lingers on the tongue. The residual sweetness hangs around but gradually gives way to a faint lime tartness and mild malt warmth.

How to Drink Cayman Jacked Strawberry Margarita

Straight from the can over ice is the most practical serve — the 19.2oz format is designed for single-serve convenience. Pour it into a salt-rimmed glass with fresh ice for a more polished presentation. For a frozen variation, blend the contents with ice for a quick strawberry frozen margarita. It also works as a base for a Strawberry Paloma riff by adding a squeeze of fresh grapefruit juice to temper the sweetness. A splash of club soda transforms it into a lighter, more effervescent strawberry spritz suitable for warm-weather sipping.

Best For

• Tailgating or outdoor events where glass bottles are impractical
• Poolside or beach drinking when convenience matters more than craft
• Casual backyard gatherings as a grab-and-go option
• Fans of sweet, fruit-forward drinks who want higher ABV in a single can

Why Cayman Jacked Strawberry Margarita?

The core appeal here is straightforward: a bigger can with more alcohol and unapologetically bold strawberry flavor. The 10% ABV sets it apart from standard RTD margaritas that typically land in the 5-7% range, making the single 19.2oz can a significant serving. The use of blue agave nectar, real cane sugar, and real lime juice gives it a more credible ingredient list than many competing flavored malt beverages, even if the strawberry character skews more toward candy than fresh fruit. Produced using Mark Anthony Brands' patented PureBrew process, it represents the higher-octane end of the Cayman Jack lineup for drinkers who want maximum flavor impact with minimal preparation.
