Pennsylvania’s Mason Dixon Canned Cocktails Expand to 293 Pennsylvania Sheetz Store Locations

Transfusion and Cotton Candy bring two distinct real-spirits cocktail experiences to more Pennsylvanians

GETTYSBURG, Pa. — November 1, 2026 — Mason Dixon Distillery is bringing two of its real-spirits canned cocktails, Transfusion and Cotton Candy, to 293 Sheetz retail locations across Pennsylvania. It is an exciting new chapter for the Gettysburg team, and a new way for adult shoppers across the Commonwealth to discover Mason Dixon close to home.

For founder and owner Yianni Barakos, this milestone is about more than reaching new shelves. It is about the people who helped build Mason Dixon, the Pennsylvania community that supported it from the beginning, and the chance to share a little more Gettysburg pride across the state.

“This is huge for our team!” said Yianni. “We started with a belief that we could make something remarkable right here in Gettysburg. Now, to see our canned cocktails heading to 293 Sheetz locations across Pennsylvania. That’s the kind of moment you work toward, dream about, and celebrate together. I’m proud of every person who helped get us here, and we’re just getting started!”

Mason Dixon Canned Cocktails is partnering with Sheetz stores in Pennsylvania to release two of its popular flavors:

 Transfusion, a golf-course-inspired ready-to-drink cocktail crafted with small-batch Pennsylvania spirits, vodka, Concord grape, lime, and ginger ale. Fruity and lightly effervescent, it offers a crisp, refreshing finish. Each 12-fl.-oz. can contains 8% alcohol by volume (ABV).

Cotton Candy, a ready-to-drink craft cocktail made with small-batch Pennsylvania spirits and the nostalgic flavor of classic cotton candy. Bright, playful, and smooth, it finishes refreshingly. Each 12-fl.-oz. can contains 8% alcohol by volume (ABV).

Both cocktails are handcrafted in Gettysburg and packaged for convenient enjoyment by adults of legal drinking age. The two flavors offer distinct points of discovery: Transfusion draws on a familiar cocktail tradition, while Cotton Candy invites consumers to explore a more unexpected flavor.

Mason Dixon Distillery has built its reputation around quality, innovation and a commitment to producing distinctive Craft Beverages. As one of the fastest-growing beverage brands in the mid-Atlantic region, Mason Dixon’s  Canned Cocktail product line combines the convenience of a ready-to-drink beverage with the unmatched flavor and character consumers expect from a top Craft Distillery. This year, Mason Dixon Canned Cocktails have won the following awards: Double Gold Medals at Denver International Spirits Competition; and Platinum Medals at the distinguished American Spirits Council of Tasters (ASCOT) Competition, where products are judged blind by over 50 of the world’s best Spirits experts. 

This expansion brings Mason Dixon’s Gettysburg craftsmanship closer to customers throughout Pennsylvania. Adult shoppers can look for Transfusion and Cotton Candy at participating Sheetz locations and other retailers, and visit the Mason Dixon Distillery website to find store locations. Product selection and in-store inventory may vary by location.

“Getting onto the shelf is a big milestone, but the really exciting part is what happens next,” said Yianni. “Someone spots a can, gives us a try, tells a friend, and suddenly they’ve found their Mason Dixon. That’s what this is all about, great products, great people, and more opportunities to share what we love. We are so proud to partner with a great company like Sheetz. Better Belongs Here!”
