Strongest Canned Cocktail Drinks

567 canned cocktail drinks tracked, averaging 12.5g carbs and 167 calories per serving. Ready-to-drink cocktails mix a spirit base with a sugary mixer or syrup, so unlike a straight spirit almost all the carbs here come from the mixer, not the alcohol - which is also why the category's score sits well below the pure-spirit types. Sorted by ABV (highest first), then score.

How To Use This Ranking

Use ABV as the first filter

This page is sorted to surface the strongest canned cocktail choices first. Start with the top ten, then compare score and calories.

Check serving size before you order

The current shortlist reaches a ceiling of 5.0% ABV, so confirm the pour size before treating a high-proof pick like a standard serving.

Cross-reference carbs separately

Strength and carbs move independently, so a high-ABV pick is not automatically low-carb. This shortlist still averages 6.3g carbs per 12 oz serving.
