NEW YORK (March 12, 2025) — The Ryl Company, the brand redefining hydration in the beverage space, has partnered with 7-Eleven to roll out Ryl Tea in over 500 locations across the New York City Metro area, New York State and New Jersey.
Through this collaboration, Ryl Tea expands its footprint into one of the world’s largest convenience store chains, giving customers easy access to its flavorful and functional ready-to-drink teas. With zero sugar, no artificial ingredients and functional antioxidants, the initial lineup features some of Ryl’s most popular flavors, including Peach, Half & Half and Morgan Wallen Sweet Tea — an exclusive collaboration with the country music superstar. Powered by clean ingredients, Ryl Tea sets a new standard, offering consumers a healthier, tastier alternative to mass-produced, high-sugar tea brands.
“7-Eleven is an outstanding retail partner for us and our first major push into the convenience channel,” said Blodin Ukella, Founder and CEO of The Ryl Company. “Their incredible reach and infrastructure mean more people will be exposed to all the benefits — and incredible tastes — of Ryl Tea. This is just the beginning, and we look forward to growing together and continuing to redefine what’s possible in the ready-to-drink tea market.”
The Ryl Company offers six nostalgic iced tea flavors, free from additives, ranging from fruitful flavors like Peach and Raspberry to indulgent flavors like Southern Sweet and Half & Half. Each Ryl Tea is infused with a powerful antioxidant superblend, rich in naturally occurring polyphenols and an excellent source of vitamin C. Completely sugar-free, these beverages use natural sweeteners like monk fruit, stevia and allulose to deliver a full-bodied, satisfying flavor — without compromise.
