Avoid This Trader Joe's Canned Cocktail Unless You Want College Flashbacks - Tasting Table
Briefly

Canned cocktails are gaining popularity for their convenience and cost-effectiveness. Trader Joe’s offers a selection of canned cocktails, which have been tasted and ranked. The Links Drinks Classic Transfusion ranks last due to its imbalance and lack of complexity. The drink combines vodka, grape juice, and ginger ale, but results in an overly sweet concoction reminiscent of college drinks. More mature drinkers may want to avoid this option, while alternatives are available from other brands, though caution is advised regarding sweetness levels.
The Links Drinks Classic Transfusion landed in last place because it was neither balanced nor complex, relying on vodka, grape juice, and ginger ale.
The ginger ale simply turned the grape juice into a grape soda, creating a highly sweetened drink reminiscent of poorly mixed college cocktails.
Some consumers with more mature palates should consider avoiding Links Drinks Transfusion, as it may appeal more to those who prefer overwhelming sweetness.
For those who enjoy grape, other brands like Welches and Cutwater provide options, but caution is advised due to the potential for excess sweetness.
