Amazon sells nearly everything these days, so it may be no surprise that you can buy booze and have it shipped to your door. But there is one important caveat: State laws will determine availability. For example, Texas laws allow for retailers like Amazon to deliver beer and wine directly to customers, but not hard liquor. Whereas in Florida, hard liquor, beer, and wine can all be delivered directly to consumers. But for Utah residents, booze delivery is strictly prohibited.

Even in states where liquor delivery is permitted, Amazon doesn't always offer it. Individual products may be available through Whole Foods, Amazon Fresh, or even local retailers. For the purposes of researching this article, we chose to use Chicago, a location where Amazon supports the shipping of hard liquor.

Even though there are limitations and you have to show a valid ID at drop-off, the convenience is worthwhile to many Amazon customers. From ordering up a case of beer to getting tequila delivered to your door, let's take a look at the spirits customers seem to like the best on Amazon.

Prices are accurate as of the publication date and may vary by region.

Domestic Beer - Blue Moon Belgian White Wheat Ale

The most popular, well-reviewed American-brewed beer sold on Amazon right now isn't a lager like Bud Light or Coors; it's a wheat beer. Blue Moon currently sits at a rating of 4.8 out of 5 stars on Amazon, with more than 1,000 ratings globally.

This malty sweet brew with a strong punch of citrus is a classic example of the witbier (or white beer) style. Many Amazon reviewers love the flavor, with one customer saying it has an, "orange taste with fresh lemon. Cool & refreshing summer beer." Users on Reddit agree that the beer is delicious, with many citing it as the one that introduced them to the wider world of craft beer. "It was my gateway beer ... it holds a special place in my liver." 

Not only are Blue Moon fans happy with the taste, but many also love the convenience of getting it delivered by Amazon. As one Amazon reviewer pointed out, "Definitely makes it super easy to be lazy and have your alcohol delivered to you. I'm happy." In the Chicago area, this 12-pack of Blue is sold and delivered through both Amazon Fresh and Whole Foods. Or, if you prefer to pick out your 12-pack, you can order through Amazon for pickup at your local Whole Foods Market.

Grab an orange, and serve up your next up your next Blue Moon in style for $19.87.

Import Beer - Modelo Especial 12-pack

Having dethroned Bud Light as the number one beer in the Unites States in 2023, it's no surprise that Modelo Especial is a favorite import on Amazon. This 12-pack has received a rating of 4.8 out of 5 stars from nearly 1,000 happy customers. While Modelo lost its number one spot in 2025, replaced by Michelob Ultra, it's still wildly popular, accounting for 10% of all beer sales across the U.S.

On Amazon, the 12-pack of bottles appear to be more popular than the canned version, with one Amazon customer stating it's an, "Easy to drink light beer. Tastes better in glass bottles than cans." And indeed, the 12-pack cans have far fewer ratings than the 12-pack bottles. But surprisingly, at the time of this writing — through the Whole Foods delivery option — the bottles are cheaper than the cans. Amazon Fresh is also a shipping option, but the price point is a bit higher.

For a crisp, clean thirst quencher, order a 12-pack of Modelo Especial for $18.49, or for a roastier flavor, pick up a pack of Modelo Negra for $21.34.

Red wine - Black Box Cabernet Sauvignon 3L

Boxed wines sometimes get a bad reputation, but they can be affordable and high quality. Black Box Cabernet Sauvignon sold on Amazon is one such case. Having won multiple awards, including Red Wine of the Year from the Sommeliers Choice Awards 2023, this cabernet is a solid representation of the varietal. As one Amazon reviewer puts it, "Was pleasantly surprised by this wine box. Great value for money and good taste. Wine from boxes is usually quite low quality.. but this box is not like any other 'red wine in a box I've ever tried. Will definitely buy more."

This 3-liter (just over 3 quarts) box holds approximately four bottles' worth of wine and stays fresh for up to six weeks when refrigerated, according to Black Box. That's at least 20 glasses of delicious, rich, bold-flavored wine to enjoy. With a 4.6-out-of-5 Amazon rating and more than 750 reviews, this wine seems worth braving the box.

Sip on your next glass of dry, dark-fruit-flavored Black Box Cabernet Sauvignon, with a purchase price of just $19.34.

Sweet wine - Stella Rosa Moscato d'Asti

Fans of fruit wine are probably already familiar with Stella Rosa's low alcohol lineup. From blueberry and pineapple to mango chili, Stella Rosa offers a wide variety of sweet, and sometimes spicy, wines. But their Moscato d'Asti is a little different. This unique style is a slightly sparkling wine made with muscat canelli grapes. It is sweet, fruity, and fizzy on the tongue, but is not overly strong or sugary, with Amazon reviews describing it as "Delicious! If you like white wine with an aftertaste of a honey peach, this is the wine for you!"

The flavor of this 750 milliliter bottle of wine is largely loved, receiving a 4.8 out of 5 on Amazon with more than 1,000 reviews. Perhaps this is why the style is considered one of the best sweet wines for beginners.

More than just taste, quality is guaranteed, as one Amazon reviewer points out: it is a "Real Italian Moscato d'Asti. Slightly effervescent and lightly sweet." As all of Stella Rosa's wines are, this style was produced in the Piedmont region of Italy, earning it a DOCG rating. This means the winemaking process and final product both adhere to the strict Italian vinification standards.

To taste the quality for yourself, grab a bottle of Stella Rosa Moscato d'Asti for $12.35.

Tequila - Patrón Silver / Espolòn Reposado

Often having the reputation for producing a special burn that only a bit of lime can chase away, agave aficionados know that good tequila can often be quite smooth and sippable. Patrón is one of the more well-known, top-shelf tequila brands, with its blanco being great as both a sipper and a mixer. Patrón is also great for tequila shots.

While tequila seems far from a favorite spirit on Amazon, the smooth agave bite of Patrón Silver has garnered it 386 reviews with a rating of 4.8 out of 5. And even though Patron is known for being on the pricier side, customers enjoy the low cost and convenience of buying this spirit on Amazon, with one user saying they received a "Good price and quick shipping."

For those looking for a more oaky, aged flavor, Espolon's Reposado is the Amazon winner. With just shy of 200 reviews, most are positive, giving it a 4.7-star rating. The flavor leans toward warm and peppery, and many Amazon fans love this tequila for making mixed drinks, "I got this specifically for margaritas and the result was excellent."

Mix up a cocktail with Espolon Reposado Tequila for $30.90, or splurge on a bottle of Patron Silver Tequila for $42.99.

Vodka - Tito's Handmade Vodka

Vodka is one of those spirits that can be hard to judge, as the taste is meant to be neutral. While it can be easy to separate out the bad vodkas, the ones that have a chemical aroma or harsh burn, picking out the good ones often comes down to subtle things like finish and production preferences (e.g., charcoal filtered).

On Amazon, the hands-down vodka winner is the old-fashioned pot-distilled Tito's, with a 4.7 star rating and more than 1,000 reviews. As one happy Amazon customer puts it, Tito's has a "Great flavor for the price point. It tastes way better than well vodka, without the crazy cost of Grey Goose. It tastes so good that you can't even tell you're drinking alcohol."

But it's not just the flavor and price that vodka fans on Amazon love: They also appreciate that the product is made in the United States. "Smooth, smooth vodka and glad it's made in Texas so that I no longer have to buy Grey Goose or Stoli." Distilled and bottled in Austin, Texas, Tito's comes in a clear bottle with a simple label. And thanks to Amazon's speedy logistics, you can get a bottle delivered to your door for an affordable price. 

If you're looking for a simple, affordable, and clean-tasting vodka, order a bottle of Tito's on Amazon for $19.99.

Bourbon - Bulleit Bourbon Whiskey

Bourbon is the number one best type of whiskey, according to a 2022 survey of Daily Meal readers. But did you know it can only be made in the United States? Much like scotch can only be produced in Scotland, and champagne has to come from the Champagne region of France. And that is just one of the strict requirements a distiller has to adhere to in order to call their whiskey a bourbon. Still, there are estimated to be more than 100 bourbon distilleries in Kentucky alone, and Bulleit is one of them.

With nearly 2,000 reviews, Bulleit Bourbon manages to hold on to an impressive 4.8-star rating on Amazon. Many fans love the smooth taste that is free of the harsh burn associated with poor-quality whiskeys. But the versatility of this bourbon is what most reviewers praise. As one Amazon customer puts it, "Easy choice for a higher proof bourbon. Great for everything: cocktails, sipping, shots, etc." A bourbon that makes both a great mixer and is smooth enough to sip on is hard to beat.

If you're looking for a drink with more of a dry, spicy profile, Amazon also sells Bulleit's small-batch rye whiskey, which is just as popular as the bourbon and has an equally good 4.7-star rating.

Scotch - Chivas Regal Scotch 12-Year

Malt, peat smoke, and oak are the hallmark sensations of any good scotch, and the Chivas Regal 12 Year is no exception. This scotch is a blend, not a single malt, which means the finished product was crafted by a master blender using a variety of whiskey casks and distilled on different dates and from several distilleries. Using only their nose, the blender creates a custom blend with a consistent taste, which Reddit reviewers describe as having flavors of, "Caramel, vanilla, oak, lemon citrus, green apple and pear."

Being a 12-year blended Scotch means that the youngest whiskey used in the blending process was 12 years old. However, other older casks, like a 15-year, could have been used, which likely contributes to its smooth, rich flavor. Overall, this Scotch has maintained an impressive 4.8-star rating on Amazon with more than 4,500 global reviews.

Despite being a well-aged, decent-quality Scotch, this 750 milliliter bottle is very affordable, selling for just under $40 on Amazon at the time of this writing. "This is a very good scotch with a great price point – definitely see the value in this product and will order again!" says one happy Amazon customer. And whether you live in Chicago or São Paulo, Brazil, customers have reported well-packaged and secure delivery across the globe.

Savor the peaty, vanilla notes with your next bottle of Chivas Regal Scotch 12 year for only $38.44.

White rum - Bacardi Superior / Spiced rum - Kraken Black Spiced

As the world's largest rum distillery, it is perhaps no surprise that Bacardi's Superior takes the top rum spot on Amazon. Distilled and bottled in Puerto Rico, this bottle of rum has a clean, crisp flavor that customers love for making cocktails ranging from Piña coladas to Cuba Libres. But the real winning factor is the price. Each handle or ½-gallon (1.75 liter) of rum sells for $33.25 on Amazon. Which, as one Amazon reviewer put it, "Tastes amazing and wonderful priced! Love it." This mix of value and quality has garnered this rum a 4.7 rating on Amazon.

Unfortunately, many of Bacardi's other variations and flavors aren't sold on the platform. Right now, the only ones you'll find on Amazon are the Superior and Gold. So, if you're looking for a dark or spiced rum experience, Kraken Black Spiced Rum may be a worthwhile alternative. Also having a 4.7 rating, customers report the flavor as smooth and sweet. "Extremely flavorful – and something to be savored, not gulped or doctored with other liquids," suggests one Amazon reviewer. Plus, the unique bottle shape and nautical branding looks really cool.

Purchase Bacardi Superior Rum at $33.25 if you're looking for a mixer. However, if you're looking for a sweet sipper, snag a bottle of Kraken Black Spiced Rum for $20.81.

Gin - Hendricks Gin

The juniper and other botanicals that go into a gin give each brand a unique flavor. With its unique juniper, citrus, and cucumber notes, Hendrick's is considered one of the best gins out there, and Amazon customers support this, giving it a 4.9 out of 5 stars rating. "Hendricks really is top shelf quality," is how one Amazon reviewer put it.

While there are fewer reviews on gin brands in general on Amazon compared to vodka or rum, Hendricks has still garnered nearly 300 reviews, with an overwhelming 92% positive. In addition to quality and a solid flavor, customers also praise the spirit's versatility, with a few even posting their favorite gin drink recipes. This Amazon customer said, "Great gin for cucumber, mint and/or elderflower based cocktails (makes an amazing gimlet)." 

For a refreshing cocktail that delivers on taste, grab a bottle of Hendrick's Gin for $32.99.

Pre-mixed cocktail - On the Rocks Cocktails Effen Cosmopolitan

Sometimes you just want the tasty cocktail without all of the work — premixed cocktails to the rescue. The problem with these time-saving beverages is that they often taste unbalanced or have a low alcohol content. This is not the case with the On the Rocks Effen Cosmopolitan. Made using Effen Vodka and Triple Sec, this pre-mixed cocktail comes with a 20% ABV and gorgeous pink color.

As far as flavor goes, one happy Amazon customer states, "So good! I was a skeptic, but this doesn't taste premix, and it's strong. You can taste the Effen Vodka ... and it's smooth." And this isn't the only person who refers to the drink as strong, meaning you're not getting a watered-down drink here.

According to the reviews, this 375 milliliter bottle holds roughly three standard drinks or two large-sized cocktails. And if you can't finish the whole bottle in one sitting, you can always put it back in the fridge and save it for later. If cosmos aren't your thing, Amazon also sells other On the Rocks cocktails, including a margarita, an old fashioned, and a martini.

Order a bottle of On the Rocks Effen Cosmopolitan for $11.25 to save time at your next party.

Methodology

To come up with this list of the best alcoholic beverages on Amazon, we looked at two main factors: rating and number of reviews. While the reviews on these items fluctuate between a few hundred to several thousand, all products featured above have a rating of at least 4.5 stars or higher.

In making our selections, we also read through dozens of Amazon customer reviews and considered different package sizes (e.g., 750 milliliter versus 1.75 liter). For our final selections, we focused on one (or sometimes two) standout options in each major alcohol category.

As not all products are available in all markets and prices vary greatly, we used Chicago, IL, ZIP code 60601 when researching.
