Forget the bartender -- you'll soon be able to enjoy an iconic Jack and Coke cocktail with just a simple crack of a can.

Coca-Cola and Jack Daniel's Tennessee Whiskey have joined forces to create a ready-to-drink, pre-mixed Jack and Coke cocktail.

Inspired by the classic cocktail, Jack Daniel's & Coca-Cola RTD combines whiskey and Coke together in the same can. Simply chill, open and enjoy.

The beverage will be available in markets around the world, with an initial launch planned for Mexico in late 2022, the companies said in a joint statement.

"This relationship brings together two classic American icons to deliver consumers a taste experience they love in a way that is consistent, convenient, and portable," said Lawson Whiting, CEO and President of Brown-Forman Corporation, the largest American-owned spirit and wine company.

The global benchmark for alcohol beverage volume is 5% but will vary depending on the market, the companies said. A zero sugar version of the beverage will also be available.

"We keep consumers at the center of everything we do as we continue to develop our portfolio as a total beverage company, and that includes new products with our iconic Coca-Cola brand," said James Quincey, Chairman and CEO of The Coca-Cola Company.

The can and packaging will feature two of the world's most recognizable trademarks in Coca-Cola and Jack Daniel's, as well as clear responsibility symbols stating that it is to be enjoyed only by consumers of legal drinking age.

The drink is expected to hit the U.S. market sometime in 2023, according to CNN.
