Island Spritz

Pineapple and coconut put this one furthest from the classic cocktail canon, which is the point. It is a tropical spritz rather than a copy of anything, lightly sparkling and low enough in sugar at 7g per can that it never turns into the cloying piña colada territory the flavors suggest. Thirty-five calories, 0% ABV, agave-sweetened. Like the rest of Recess Zero Proof, it is built on guayusa for 10mg of natural caffeine, with L-theanine and lemon balm alongside. That combination is the brand's stand-in for what alcohol usually does at a gathering. Drink it straight from the can on a hot afternoon, or pour it over ice with a pineapple wedge. It is the one to reach for when everyone else is drinking something with an umbrella in it.
