Alabama’s Kool-Aid McKinstry will soon have a new flavor of his namesake drink launched in his honor.

Kool-Aid, self-described as the “all-American beverage,” will introduce “Black Cherry Blitz,” its first limited-edition flavor in three years, in the coming days. The new flavor is a nod to McKinstry, the All-America Crimson Tide cornerback who was selected by the New Orleans Saints in the second round of the NFL draft on Friday (Black Cherry is McKinstry’s favorite flavor of Kool-Aid).

McKinstry, whose given name is Ga’Quincy, was given his nickname as a baby by his grandmother, who noted that his smile was reminiscent of the Kool-Aid Man mascot. McKinstry had an NIL deal with Kool-Aid at one point during his Alabama career, and the Kool-Aid Man “crashed” McKinstry’s draft party on Thursday in Birmingham.
