High Noon Vodka Iced Tea 4Pk

High Noon Vodka Iced Tea 4Pk is a non-carbonated ready-to-drink cocktail (4.5% ABV, four 355ml cans) combining five-times-distilled corn vodka with real brewed black tea. What distinguishes this lineup from the crowded RTD field is its still (non-sparkling) format and use of actual vodka rather than fermented malt or sugar bases.

Quick Facts: ABV: 4.5%  |  Origin: California / South Carolina, USA  |  Style: Vodka Iced Tea (Non-Carbonated)  |  Producer: E. & J. Gallo Winery

Production & Heritage

High Noon is produced by E. & J. Gallo Winery, one of the largest family-owned wine and spirits companies in the world, founded in 1933 in Modesto, California. The vodka base is distilled five times from 100% corn sourced from the Midwestern United States, then blended at a production facility in Chester County, South Carolina. Unlike many canned cocktail competitors that rely on carbonated malt liquor or fermented sugar, the Iced Tea line uses real vodka combined with real brewed black tea, lemon, and light sweetness — resulting in a still, non-carbonated drink that more closely mimics a glass of homemade spiked iced tea.

Tasting Notes

Aroma: The Original expression opens with brewed black tea and a citrus lift from lemon. Fruit-flavored varieties like Peach carry a strong, recognizable stone-fruit scent, while Raspberry leans into a tart, berry-forward nose.

Taste: On entry, the Original reads like sweetened iced tea with a velvety smooth texture that masks the vodka almost entirely. The Peach variant tastes noticeably of fresh peach juice blended into black tea, while Raspberry delivers a bold, slightly tart berry note with black tea emerging on the back palate. Across all expressions, the corn-vodka base contributes minimal harshness.

Finish: The Original closes with a rounded, slightly earthy finish that fades cleanly. Fruit flavors linger gently in the Peach and Raspberry versions without cloying sweetness.

How to Drink High Noon Iced Tea

Serve these cans ice-cold, straight from the can or poured over fresh ice in a tall glass. Because they are non-carbonated, they also work as a mixer or cocktail component without losing texture. Try adding a can of the Original to an Arnold Palmer build with fresh lemonade for a boozy summer classic. The Peach expression pairs well in a Peach Tea Punch — combine with ginger ale and fresh mint for a crowd-friendly batch cocktail. Raspberry works in a riff on a Berry Collins, topped with a splash of club soda and a lemon wheel for added effervescence.

• Backyard barbecues and poolside gatherings where glass bottles are impractical
• Iced-tea lovers looking for a sessionable low-ABV alcoholic option
• Tailgating or outdoor events where non-carbonated drinks are preferred
• Stocking a cooler for group settings with varied taste preferences (multiple flavor options in one pack)

Why High Noon Iced Tea?

The defining advantage here is authenticity of ingredients: real five-times-distilled corn vodka and real brewed black tea in a non-carbonated format. In a canned cocktail market saturated with carbonated, malt-based alternatives, that still texture and clean vodka base set these apart immediately. The 4.5% ABV keeps each can sessionable without sacrificing flavor, and the variety of expressions — from a straight Original to Peach and Raspberry — gives the line enough range to satisfy different palates without straying from its core identity as genuine spiked iced tea.
