National Vodka Day is October 4, 2020. Let’s celebrate the cocktails that make life so sweet! Take this opportunity to taste the many luscious varieties of vodka on the market today:
Southerners love our Lowcountry Sweet Tea Vodka made by Firefly. Tastes just like Grandma’s sweet tea. Mix it with lemonade and you’ve got yourself a sippin’ cocktail for these long crisp autumn afternoons. Later in the day, you may enjoy a Pumpkin Spiked Latte – made with your favorite hot tea, pumpkin syrup and sweet tea vodka, garnished with whipped cream and cinnamon. You’ll find these cocktail recipes and more on their website.
Those of us who are young at heart love Three Olives Loopy Vodka. Just plain fun on National Vodka Day! Fruity and delightful, it begins with a sweet lime taste, followed by orange and cherry, ending with lemon peel and sugar cane flavors. Mix it with cranberry juice and a splash of lime juice to make a Loopy Sour Cocktail.
Mediterranean Fig Flavored Vodka. Now there’s a pleasant surprise on National Vodka Day! Figenza is made with hand-picked Mediterranean Figs from Greece and Italy. It is a smooth vodka with the feel of a liqueur. Very tasty in a Fig Martini, Fig Sangria or Fig Mojito or one of the very creative cocktail recipes listed in their website.
UV Blue Raspberry Flavored Vodka. Made with vine-ripened raspberries, this vodka adds a sudden sweetness to cocktails. Simply mix 1 part UV Blue Raspberry with 3 parts lemonade, add ice, shake and you’ve got a refreshing cocktail that’s as blue as the ocean. So pretty in the glass!
Peanut Butter Vodka – WHAT? Yes! 6th Element Peanut Butter Vodka – the aroma of peanut butter with smooth peanutty flavor. If you love peanut butter, you will love this vodka! Perfect in mule drinks and chocolate martinis.
Ketel One Botanical Peach and Orange Blossom Vodka. Juicy and delicate. Perfect for a spritz – just add soda water and a wedge of fresh orange.
Strawberry Absolut Juice Vodka. Your favorite Absolut Vodka mixed with a splash of juice. Sun riped strawberry flavors. Make a Strawberry Spritz with Strawberry Absolut Juice Vodka, rosé wine and soda water. Garnish with fresh strawberries.
