The novelty liquor is only available in stores in California and New York right now, but according to Food & Wine, Emperial Doritos will hit stores in January 2024. Unfortunately, it is not specified if the unique alcohol will be available nationwide.

To be sure you get a bottle, you can pre-order now here.

  • Neat

  • Doritos Margarita
  • Doritos Bloody Mary
