Aleksandr Russell is a Toronto bartender and creator of the cocktail that was inspired by the wildly popular White Claw. He calls it "a slightly refined version of the most popular White Claw flavor, the black cherry".

Russell, echoing the often-heard mildly anarchistic cry from White Claw drinkers declares that he doesn't fear legal threats from the seltzer company for imitating its flavors and texture. "What are they going to do?" He asks. "Ain't no laws, baby!"
