NEW YORK, Sept. 02, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Tilray Brands, Inc. (“Tilray”) (Nasdaq: TLRY; TSX: TLRY), a leading global lifestyle and consumer packaged goods company, in partnership with The Magnum Ice Cream Company, today announced that Popsicle Hard Firecracker will transition to a permanent, year-round flavor in the Popsicle Hard portfolio, following an overwhelmingly positive response from consumers.

Originally introduced as a limited-edition seasonal flavor, Firecracker quickly became a fan favorite. Inspired by one of Popsicle’s most recognizable frozen treats, the flavor captures the classic red, white and blue combination of cherry, lemon-lime and blue raspberry notes. Following its successful debut, Popsicle Hard is adding Firecracker to its permanent lineup, giving U.S. consumers 21+ year-round access to the fruity, refreshing flavor they know and love, with a 5% ABV twist.

“Popsicle Hard Firecracker has quickly proven the power of pairing an iconic, nostalgia-driven flavor with the growing consumer demand for fun, flavor-forward adult beverages,” said Carrie Shafir, VP of Brand at Tilray Beverages. “The response to our limited-edition launch showed us that Firecracker had become more than a seasonal offering, it had earned a permanent place in the Popsicle Hard portfolio. By adding it year-round, we’re giving 21+ consumers more opportunities to enjoy a flavor they know, love, and clearly want more of.”

Firecracker joins the existing year-round Popsicle Hard flavors including Hard Cherry, Hard Grape and Hard Orange, with each flavor capturing the taste and joy of Popsicle. Popsicle Hard is available at retail stores nationwide.
