Drinking No Evil just got easier as Snow Monkey Saké Remix adds four New Green Tea Flavors

Snow Monkey™ Saké Remix™ – the first U.S. brewed Ready-To-Drink (RTD) beverage crafted from a saké base – is releasing four new RTDs that combine green tea and  saké with delicious fruit flavors.

“Saké and green tea are two of Japan’s most iconic beverages, each with a rich history, and together, they create a natural and refreshing balance,” said David Knight, CEO, Snow Monkey Sake Remix. “Saké’s subtle sweetness and umami pairs with green tea’s depth and clarity. For centuries, each beverage has been shared during moments of mindfulness, celebration, and connection, and now Snow Monkey has combined them to make a delicious read-to-drink.”

Snow Monkey RTDs are developed and produced by Origami Sake, the sustainably- crafted American saké and the only U.S. saké brewer to win a Gold Medal at the prestigious Tokyo Sake Challenge 2025.

Since its launch earlier this year, Snow Monkey has made a splash in the ready to drink sector and has quickly expanded to 19 states, while earning multiple medals, including Double Golds at the 2025 San Diego Spirits Festival International Bottle Competition and the 2025 Pr%f RTD Awards for both taste and design.

Tea-based RTDs are a growing segment within the RTD category as consumers turn away from traditional malt-based spiked teas to new flavors, styles and less sugar.

Snow Monkey RTDs start with an American-brewed sake base which appeals to consumers who are concerned about the ingredients they eat and drink. Snow Monkey Green Teas are non-carbonated, gluten free, sulphite free, vegan friendly, and continue the ‘east meets west’ theme by featuring four great tasting fruit combinations:

WATERMELON + LIME – Juicy watermelon crashes into bright lime for a flavor that’s crisp, cooling, and full of snap. Green tea brings energy and clarity, while saké smooths the edges with quiet complexity and a clean finish that lingers just long enough. It's a hit of sunshine even on the coldest days.

LEMONADE + HONEY – Tart lemonade opens with a citrus zing, mellowed by soft honey and grounded by green tea’s gentle bite. Saké brings a silky weight, anchoring the blend in golden calm. It’s subtle, soothing, and quietly uplifting—like sunlight through a window.

PEACH + RASPBERRY – Lush peach and tart raspberry come together in a round, fruit-forward groove. Green tea keeps it clean and focused, while saké softens the edges with smooth, juicy depth. Familiar but elevated—like your favorite song remixed at half speed.

BLACK CHERRY + POMEGRANATE – Jammy black cherry meets the tart intensity of pomegranate for the boldest blend in the lineup. Green tea adds balance and brightness, while saké rounds it out with control and clarity. It’s rich but never heavy built for mood lighting and deep conversations.
