Truly Unruly

Unruly is a hard seltzer from TRULY, sold as a ready-to-drink canned drink. The can is already mixed, carbonated and sealed, so you don't need a shaker, mixer, garnish or ice bucket to get started. The listing doesn't give a flavor, ABV or can size, so check the can for those. Seltzers in this style usually have a light body, steady carbonation and a fruit-forward flavor with little sweetness or heaviness. That makes them easy to drink and not filling. Temperature matters more than anything else with a seltzer. Chill the can thoroughly, ideally for a few hours in the fridge or about 30 minutes in an ice bath, because a warm seltzer tastes flat and sugary. Drinking straight from the can works well. If you'd rather pour it, use a highball or rocks glass filled with fresh ice, and pour slowly down the side of the glass to keep the bubbles. Use a lot of ice, since it keeps the drink cold and dilutes it more slowly than a few small cubes would. Seltzers like this go well with salty, crunchy, or lightly spiced food. Good matches include chips and salsa, grilled chicken or shrimp skewers, tacos, pizza, popcorn and fried appetizers. The carbonation and fruit notes cut through oil and salt, much as a squeeze of citrus would. Fruit-leaning flavors also go well with fresh cheese, sliced melon or a simple fruit plate. The cans are practical for picnics, tailgates, beach or pool days, backyard grilling and cooler-based gatherings. They are individually portioned, they don't need glassware, and they keep well in a cooler or fridge door. Pack them with plenty of ice, and for outdoor events keep them in the shade and don't leave them in a hot car.
