Whatever the reason, 5G-themed gin is now something that exists in the world, courtesy of T-Mobile. Ostensibly, \u201cUltra Capacity 5Gin\u201d exists to celebrate a T-Mobile milestone: covering 300 million people with its low-band extended range 5G network and 150 million covered by its better midrange ultra capacity 5G. <\/p>\n
But maybe it just came down to the company seeing Ryan Reynolds having a good time, selling gin*, and enjoying ownership of a wireless company and it thinking, \u201cLet\u2019s get in on that.\u201d Or perhaps as the Mariners were on the receiving end of yet another no-hitter, some marketing execs out for a night at ol\u2019 T-Mobile Park drowned their sorrows in one too many $20 G&Ts and got to thinking. <\/p>\n
The corporate-branded gin nobody asked for is produced by Heritage Distilling, the Northwest\u2019s preferred purveyor of flavored vodkas and Seahawks-themed whiskey. There\u2019s a non-alcoholic option, too: Extended Range 5Ginger Beer, made by Jones Soda. <\/p>\n If this sounds appealing and your home bar would benefit from a gin with \u201capproachable piney notes\u201d and a label with loud magenta branding, then you can order a bottle for $30 starting tomorrow. The ginger beer also goes on sale tomorrow at $10 for a six-pack. Just do us a favor if you order some: maybe pour one out for that fourth wireless carrier T-Mobile was supposed to help set up after the Sprint merger?<\/p>\n *Technically, Ryan Reynolds <\/em>sold his gin company<\/em> for $610 million last August. Spiritually, he\u2019s still kicking around as part-owner, though.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Whatever the reason, 5G-themed gin is now something that exists in the world, courtesy…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1462,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[7],"tags":[59,38,57,61,58,60],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/itparadise.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1461"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/itparadise.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/itparadise.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itparadise.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itparadise.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=1461"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/itparadise.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1461\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1980,"href":"https:\/\/itparadise.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1461\/revisions\/1980"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itparadise.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/1462"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/itparadise.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=1461"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itparadise.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=1461"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itparadise.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=1461"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}With notes of pine, citrus, and unfulfilled Sprint acquisition promises<\/q><\/aside>\n
