Wheatley American Vodka and Sandra Lee Raise a Glass to America’s 250th Birthday With Limited-Edition Commemorative Bottle
TV personality and entertaining expert Sandra Lee joins the celebration with exclusive entertaining content, vodka-infused apple pie, and a state fair demonstration
LOUISVILLE, KY (July 1, 2026) — Wheatley American Vodka, produced in the heartland at the world’s most award-winning distillery, introduces its limited-time USA 250th Birthday Edition commemorative bottle, created in honor of the United States’ 250th anniversary. To celebrate the occasion, Wheatley American Vodka has partnered with renowned lifestyle expert, television personality, and American icon Sandra Lee to create a Wheatley American Vodka-infused Apple Pie recipe, inspired by a classic American dessert.
Sandra Lee’s partnership includes social media content featuring the Wheatley American Vodka-infused Apple Pie recipe to celebrate America’s 250th. She also created a semi-homemade Apple Dump Cake recipe using Wheatley American Vodka-infused apples. Sandra crafted two signature apple cocktails, the Apple Pie Martini and the Fresh Apple Martini, with Wheatley American Vodka as the perfect pairing.
“America’s 250th anniversary is a once-in-a-generation celebration,” said Sandra Lee. “I’m excited to partner with Wheatley American Vodka to help families and friends create memorable moments over food and drinks inspired by the classic American tradition of backyard BBQs.”
The campaign will continue throughout the summer into early fall, including an appearance by Sandra Lee during her state fair tour, where she will share her Wheatley American Vodka-infused Apple Pie recipe and signature Wheatley American Vodka take-home gifts.
Wheatley’s USA 250th Birthday Edition bottle celebrates the timeless American traditions that bring family and friends together—from backyard barbecues and Fourth of July celebrations to sharing a slice of apple pie and raising a toast. Available for a limited time throughout the summer, this commemorative release is an invitation to celebrate the people, places, and traditions that make America special and to raise a glass to the moments that bring us together.
Like all Wheatley American Vodka, the spirit is distilled 10 times and triple-filtered for an ultra-smooth result with a delicately soft and crisp taste. In addition to mixing effortlessly with apple pie flavors, Wheatley American Vodka is also easy to enjoy in simple mixed drinks like vodka sodas, vodka lemonades, and American mules.
“Sandra’s passion for bringing people together makes her the perfect partner as we celebrate America’s 250th anniversary,” said David Binder, Senior Brand Director, Wheatley American Vodka. “This momentous milestone inspired our limited-time USA 250th Birthday Edition bottle, and we’re honored to be part of the backyard barbecues, summer celebrations, and memorable moments that bring people together all season long.”
The USA 250th Birthday Edition Wheatley American Vodka bottle is available now for a limited time nationwide through Sazerac’s United States distributor network, which will ship to select retailers, bars, and restaurants as of June 2026 at a suggested retail price of $16.99; state taxes will vary per market. It’s also available for delivery in select markets via DoorDash and Instacart.
