1983

1983 is a modern take on one of the world’s most iconic cocktails. Bold espresso, 10x distilled Canadian vodka, and a subtle touch of cream liqueur. Crafted for effortless enjoyment, no bar skills or barista required. A classic reborn for today.

Our

Origin

Story

Nostalgic libations inspired by one hot summer night back in '18. Here's what happened...

The word is out

01

Hardpops is an official partner of the NHL's Florida Panthers, 2023 Eastern Conference Champions. This strategic partnership drives exposure and brand reputation within South Florida. Read more about our partnership and arena presence here.

02

"Hardpops Destined To Be The Shiniest Treat At Pool Parties This Summer. Sweet, refreshing, and tongue-painting, these frozen delights were a summer staple."

03

"Really refreshing and froze up just like push pops. Would be great for a summer picnic–discreet, sweet, and genuinely boozy"

04

Hardpops was featured in GQ Magazine UK's September and October 2021 issues gift guides.

05

"The ice pop packaging stands out in a way that adds a touch of sophistication to a variety of occasions. These summer staples come in at 6.9% ABV with 60 calories and flavors that are fresh, fruity and not too sweet."

05

"It’s a big positive to have two productive, smart entrepreneurs back in Canada making things here."
