According to the Palcohol Website, there are 5 different versions of the product. Two of those are shots: V which is “premium vodka distilled four times” and R which is ” premium Puerto Rican rum.

” For those who have a more whimsical taste in drinks, they will also be offering the Cosmopolitan, the Powderita (Margarita), and Lemon Drops which are all cocktail versions.

Palcohol will be sold “anywhere where liquor can be sold and a buyer must be of legal drinking age to buy it. It will be available both in the United States and abroad and it can also be bought online.”
