aespa Lemonade Highball: CU Convenience Store Collaboration Details

The aespa Lemonade Highball is currently generating buzz in Korea as a special collaboration between the K-pop group aespa and CU convenience stores. This ready-to-drink alcoholic beverage is attracting fans and consumers with its unique packaging featuring individual aespa members, making it a collectible item and an accessible drink.

Launched on May 29, 2026, this highball comes in a 500mL can with 5% alcohol content and is priced at 4,500 KRW, with a promotional offer of three cans for 12,000 KRW. While named "highball," it is not a traditional whiskey-based drink; its main ingredients include spirits, apple concentrate, lemon concentrate, and natural lemon flavors, with a real lemon slice found inside the can.

Local bloggers describe the aespa Lemonade Highball as having a sweet lemon candy taste, making it a good pairing for snacks like pepperoni pizza. They advise checking the Pocket CU app for stock availability and current promotions, and recommend drinking it slowly due to its alcohol content, suggesting it be served chilled or with ice.
