Constellation Brands buys boozy sports drink SpikedAde
USA | Seems like spiked “Ade” RTDs are becoming the next big thing. Only introduced last year, the segment of spirit-based, sports drink-inspired RTDs is already attracting big money and new entrants.

The acquisition was announced on 6 October.
