Monterey County, CA – May 20, 2025 – Just in time for the long holiday weekend and the official start of summer, HOXIE Dry Wine Spritzers, a cult favorite in the low ABV RTD category and the perfect pairing for summer parties, are now available at select northern California Safeway stores.

Created by Chef Josh Rosenstein, HOXIE has earned acclaim from Rolling Stone magazine as the best wine spritzer and took home Best of Class in the Wine Spritzer category at the 2023 SF Chronicle Wine Competition. Now, HOXIE’s Grapefruit Elderflower expression is hitting the shelves of over 160 Safeway locations just in time for Spritz Season.
About HOXIE Spritzer
HOXIE is the original dry wine spritzer (drinkhoxie.com) — wine based, spritz forward, leisure inducing, and radically delicious. One can of HOXIE is 8.4 oz, 5% ABV, 90 calories, gluten free, and vegan. There is NO ADDED SUGAR and never any junk! HOXIE is made with wine — no malt and no cheap spirits. HOXIE was conceived when Josh Rosenstein was working as a line cook in restaurants. Combining wine with herbs, botanicals, fruit, ice + seltzer, Josh unwittingly created a “sessionable” beverage that would evolve into HOXIE. Produced in partnership with Scheid Family Wines, HOXIE Dry Wine Spritzers are available at a slew of influential national and regional chains across the country.
