It's just about that time of year for a spring getaway, but your plans are probably looking different than usual. If you wind up staying home this season, don't fret, because Bud Light is dropping a new "Out of Office" variety pack that'll basically transport you to a tropical vacay. With sips like Watermelon Mojito and Mango Mai Tai, Bud Light Seltzer's "Out of Office" flavors will bring the poolside vibes to your living room.

Bud Light shared details of its latest vacay-inspired "Out of Office" seasonal variety edition on Thursday. Feb. 25. The new spiked seltzer pack features four flavors that are inspired by classic tropical cocktails: Watermelon Mojito, Classic Margarita, Mango Mai Tai, and Strawberry Daiquiri. Like Bud Light's other hard seltzer flavors, the "Out of Office" varieties come in slim, ready-to-drink 12-ounce cans, which means you won't have to get out your cocktail shaker to enjoy your favorite beachside drinks. Despite the names akin to classic cocktails, these sips don't have extra booze in them, the 5% ABV beach-y sips get their kick from cane sugar, natural fruit flavors, and a unique five-step filtration process.

You can get your hands on Bud Light's Out of Office variety pack when it drops at nationwide retailers on Monday, March 1. They'll only be available for a limited time through Saturday, May 15, so you'll want to make sure you snap up a 12-pack of the tropical AF flavors.
