TONY'S TEA HITS SHELVES IN JUNE
In collaboration with Stewart, Dixie Vodka has also created a new, ready-to-drink canned cocktail called "Tony's Tea," which will debut this June alongside a series of three other canned cocktails from the brand. Tony's Tea features a combination of iced tea and lemonade spiked with Dixie Vodka's award-winning flagship Southern Vodka.

"I'm always on the go, but that doesn't mean I sacrifice quality for speed. That's why I partnered with Dixie Vodka," Stewart said. "Their attention to detail is second to none, and when we were looking to create a great-tasting and ready-to-drink cocktail, Dixie Vodka delivered. Ice it and open it and Tony's Tea is ready to go. I'm looking forward to working with Matti and his team at Dixie Vodka to introduce this line of canned cocktails to our fans."
