Skip the airport lines, lost-baggage and travel headaches, because Captain Morgan and Vita Coco are serving tropical getaway feels – without the getaway woes. From the concrete jungle of New York to Southern California, Vita Coco Spiked with Captain Morgan is bringing the taste of the tropics – from the sea breeze to palm trees – to unexpected U.S. locations all summer long. But there's more. In addition to the exotic backdrop, each stop on the tour will include an unforgettable performance from a tropical music superstar.
"Ever since it hit shelves earlier this year, people craving warmer weather and summer vibes can't get enough of Vita Coco Spiked with Captain Morgan, serving up summer vibes in a can," said Anne Nosko, VP, Captain Morgan. "And now that summer is almost here, we're turning the flavor and heat up to a 10 with unforgettable experiences paired with delicious drinks, bringing a taste of the tropics to everyone no matter where you live."
San Juan Capistrano, California, get ready to tropic-like-it's-hot with Puerto Rico's own Myke Towers. Jamaica Queens and Jamaica Plain, Massachusetts, jam down with Jamaica's Shenseea and Sean Paul. Because what's a tropical getaway without the people who make these destinations so special?
"This summer, enjoy all the flavors of a beach vacation right at home with Vita Coco Spiked with Captain Morgan and see what we're all about at one of the stops on the Tropical Takeover Tour," said Jane Prior, CMO of The Vita Coco Company. "Like sipping from a coconut on a tropical island, it will be a summer experience you won't forget."

- San Juan Capistrano, C.A., featuring Myke Towers (Friday, August 4)
- Jamaica Plain, Mass., featuring Sean Paul (Thursday, September 14)
"When Captain Morgan asked me to help bring the culture of Jamaica to Jamaica Plain, a place that couldn't be more opposite, I was pumped to deliver a taste of that tropical flavor," said Sean Paul. "Boston, get ready to turn up the temperature for the hottest celebration this summer and come see me perform to experience the Caribbean for yourself."
Three cities. Three performances. Three one-of-a-kind experiences will help party-goers experience the tropics paired perfectly with delicious drinks, swag and unforgettable fun.

"As a boricua, it's important for me to share the culture of my island with places I have never been to," said Myke Towers. "In Puerto Rico, we add our own flavor and spice to everything we do just like Captain Morgan. I'm ready to bring those Caribbean vibes to California with a taste of how we do it in PR!"
Made with real coconut water and Caribbean Rum, Vita Coco Spiked with Captain Morgan premium canned cocktails are available in three delicious flavors – Piña Colada, Strawberry Daiquiri and Lime Mojito - on shelves nationwide.
"As a proud Jamaican, I know there's nothing like tropical vibes to get the party started," said Shenseea. "That's why I'm super excited to team up with Vita Coco Spiked with Captain Morgan to bring flavors of home to Jamaica, Queens, something everyone should have a chance to experience."
