Philadelphia hard seltzer brand Two Robbers is putting its own spin on the viral White Claw slushie craze. Two Robbers has provided its own recipes to make the summery cocktail at home.

If you even casually scan TikTok you've probably seen a White Claw slushie. The frozen drink made with the popular hard seltzer brand is the latest cocktail craze taking over social media, possibly because it's simple to make so long as you have a blender.

Well, if you want to put a local spin on the viral trend, you could consider using these recipes from Philly hard seltzer brand Two Robbers.

Two Robbers was founded in 2017 by twin brothers Vikram and Vivek Nayar in Philadelphia and their alcoholic beverage hit shelves last year. As for the name, the brothers were robbed twice while starting out and that experience served as inspiration.

Their hard seltzer is made without any added sugars or sweeteners and is gluten-free. Each can is 110 calories and has a 5.2% ABV. Comparatively, White Claw has 100 calories and a 5% ABV.

Check out the three recipes provided by Two Robbers below and make your own hard seltzer slushies home.

If you're looking for where to purchase the hard seltzer brand in Philadelphia, one option is to get a variety pack from Yards Brewing Co., another Philly company, but there are many other locations to buy Two Robbers. The brand is currently available at more than 600 locations in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware and New York.

Note that variety packs come with a mix of pineapple and ginger, watermelon and cucumber, and orange and mango flavors. The new peach berry flavor is sold by itself.
