Fairfield, New Jersey, United States, North America

Overview

Founded in New Jersey in 2025, SpikedAde offers a vodka-based RTD formulated with sports drink flavors, 4.5% ABV, zero sugar and 100 calories per 12 fl oz can. The brand launched in New Jersey and achieved rapid early traction, activating over 1,500 accounts in its first two months and securing a 100% reorder rate at Total Wine locations in the state. SpikedAde reports high repeat purchase rates and has distribution relationships with MolsonCoors/Constellation distributors (Peerless, Shore Point, Kramer) and Manhattan Beer Distributors. The company is led by founder and CEO Jason Cohen alongside a team of beverage and CPG veterans with experience at Diageo and other consumer brands. To support expansion, SpikedAde raised $10 million and intends to scale into 15–30 U.S. markets by March. The financing and distributor partnerships are positioned to fund national commercialization and inventory build as the brand pursues category leadership.
