Veteran-owned hand-crafted cocktail company will also sponsor Vet Tix ticket program to send veterans and their families to Chicago Street Race
CHICAGO (Apr. 29, 2025) – Today, the NASCAR Chicago Street Race announced that it will feature Plymouth, Wisc.-based Carbliss Hand Crafted Premium Cocktails as their official ready-to-drink canned cocktail. Carbliss will also serve as the Presenting Sponsor of this year’s Vet Tix program, donating $10,000 to help send veterans and military families to the Chicago Street Race in Grant Park, July 5-6.
As a part of the Carbliss partnership, the Turn 11 viewing area at the corner of S. Michigan Ave. at E. Jackson Dr. will be renamed the “Carbliss Corner,” offering Grounds Pass attendees unrivaled cityscape views of all the world-class racing action.
“Carbliss’ flavor truly stands out among the rest, so we’re proud to bring them on board and partner with another great Midwestern company with such a mission-centric approach,” said Julie Giese, President, NASCAR Chicago Street Race. “As a veteran-owned company, Carbliss is a perfect partner for the NASCAR Chicago Street Race and our longtime friends at Vet Tix, and we look forward to hosting these military families at this year’s race over Independence Day Weekend.”
Founded by husband-and-wife duo Adam and Amanda Kroener in 2018, Carbliss has quickly become one of the most recognizable brands in the booming canned cocktail market. Adam, an Army Veteran, and Amanda founded Carbliss with a mission to serve anyone who wants to enjoy a hand-crafted cocktail that is free of carbohydrates, sugars and calories, without compromising on flavor.
“Carbliss was born out of a true desire to bring big, bold flavors to the world of bland diet friendly cocktails, so we’re thrilled to introduce those flavors to fans at the Chicago Street Race in 2025,” said Amanda Kroener, Co-Founder of Carbliss. Adam, an avid racing fan, said, “There is nothing better than a Midwestern summer, and we’re proud to be a part of the biggest sports and entertainment event of the summer at the NASCAR Chicago Street Race.”
The NASCAR Chicago Street Race – which was named “Sports Event of the Year” by Sports Business Journal – previously announced new ticket options, along with reduced prices throughout the footprint, and a shorter overall build schedule.
