Flavored Vodkas

Vodka is a strong enough drink on it;s own . Yet there''s just one problem, no flavor, literally it';s a great mixer drink. After all it makes for wonderful screwdrivers and Cape Codders.However it's not memorable, not like champagne or whiskey. However that;s all being amended these days thanks to the help of some flavoring.


Flavored vodka is nothig n ew. Poles and Russians have been flavoring theirs for centuries mostly with local fruit, herb and honeys, However in this day and age it's not unusual for companies like Stoli to include odd flavors not normally associated with the drink. there is a bacon flavored one - perfect for those brunch Bloody Marys; as well as a cotton candy one (this one should stand alone and not e mixed with anything) There are the also the more palatable fruit ones that have infusions of everything from grape tokiwi in them. The brand Three Olives also produces one with tomato and root beer

Who produces the best flavored vodka? Of course the answer would be Stolichnaya or Stoli.The company has been around for a long time(since the early 1900' s)Stoli takes its' product and gives it a modern day US twist by including flavors such as cranberry and raspberry along with popular vanilla, apple and blackberry. However the British Three Olive s is the hot dogger here with its'off the wall yet surprisingly workable tastes that include bubblegum and watermelon. This is the brand served in clubs and private house parties, appealing to th e thirty and younger set.

Vodka isn't just that strong drink used as a mixer. Now it's coming into its; own being infused with a variety of sweet and savory flavors. it;s growing up and expanding to fit a market that demands more than just the original.
