Nothing gives me nostalgic childhood flashbacks quite like a Capri Sun [3]. Just thinking about those shiny pouches floods my mind with memories of school lunches spent sipping on my favorite flavor (Mountain Cooler, obviously), then subsequently folding the empty vessel into a makeshift flip phone. Now that I'm of legal drinking age, my beverage preferences have refined a bit, but I can't deny longing for a Capri Sun every now and then. That's why I nearly passed out from a nostalgia overload when I discovered that sangria-filled pouches exist.
Puerto Rico-based brand Gasolina [4] produces portable pouches — straws included! — filled with a variety of alcoholic drinks, including rum punch, a mojito, and a sea breeze. But the one flavor we've got major heart eyes for is the sangria option [5], which the brand has officially dubbed "Sangriiia." A mouthwatering combination of Caribbean rum, açai, and other natural fruit juices, the Sangriiia pouches pack a tasty punch (and a strong one, too, as they contain 7.5 percent alcohol by volume).

These innovative drinks evade the all-to-familiar struggle of craving a fruity sangria on the go, but being a bit too lazy to combine all the usual ingredients [8] together. The pouches can be purchased individually or in a five-pack (hello, perfect beach day drink!) from a handful of liquor stores [9] throughout Florida, New York, New Jersey, and Rhode Island. If you need us, you can find us clutching onto what's left of Summer by sipping on this boozy, adult-approved version of Capri Sun [10].
