Any ‘soda-pop’ drinks similar to Vodka Cruisers but stronger?

I’ve started drinking Vodka Cruisers, but I’m not sure what to upgrade to next. I’m trying to work my way up to be able to stomach less diluted alcohols, but my preference right now is still Vodka Cruisers. The carbonated, fizzy taste is very digestible and doesn’t make me feel sick in comparison to the taste of pure alcohol. I also like cocktails. I’m willing to drink things that are ‘purer’, just not something that burns as much as… I don’t know. Fireball? Yup.

I’m looking for anything not above $70 in price. A 4-pack of cruisers is $25 for me (🇦🇺). I know that Vodka Cruisers have a ‘double’ thing with ~7% alcohol if I recall correctly? But those are cans and cost about $35 for a 4-pack here. Are they worth it?

Any suggestions would be appreciated
