   • 2022 July 4, Ben Schott, “Is There Anything That Gen Z Won’t Drink?”, in The Washington Post‎^[1]:

     RTDs cover a multitude of sips, including: “hard” or “spiked” teas, coffees, kombuchas and seltzers; […] . And although the sector was birthed in the ’30s by drinks like Campari Soda, and boomed in the ’90s with Bacardi Breezer and Smirnoff Ice, RTDs are now at a point of seemingly unsustainable saturation.
