One thing that keeps me feeling young is flavored vodka. Smirnoff recently introduced two new flavors of Vodka - Cinna Sugar Twist and Wild Honey. I was ecstatic review them....so excited that I misplaced the bottle of wild honey. I am hoping it will reappear soon. How do you lose a bottle of Vodka?!
The Cinna-Sugar Twist tastes exactly like it's title. I tried it over ice and the vodka had me craving cinnamon toast crunch. It is very sweet so I wanted to mix it with a not so sweet mixer. One of the recipes I was given for the Cinna-Sugar Twist was a Coco Cooler. The coconut water was a great mixer and cut down the sweetness without taking away from the flavor.
Cinna Sugar Twist CoCo Cooler |
- 1.5 oz Smirnoff Cinna-Sugar Twist Vodka
- 5 oz coconut water
- Orange Wedge garnish
Serve in a rocks glass over ice.\
I am really hoping that my bottle of Smirnoff Wild Honey Vodka turns up - There is a recipe I am dying to try called Truth Tea. Again, how does one possibly lose a bottle of vodka?! You cannot accidentally throw it away, it's not like you can misplace it.....I am baffled!Smirnoff Wild Honey Truth Tea
- 1.5 oz Smirnoff Wild Honey Vodka
- 5 oz cold brew tea (mint or chamomile)
- Gardish -- mint springs in lemon wheel
Kissed Caramel Apple Martini |
- 2.0 oz SMIRNOFF Kissed Caramel (1/4 cup)
- 1.5 oz apple juice (1/3 cup)
- .25 oz lemon juice (1 tablespoon)
- .25 oz simple syrup (1 tablespoon)
What do you think of Smirnoff's new flavors? You can check out a ton of recipes for Smirnoff flavors by clicking here. What cocktail would you make with either flavor?
Disclaimer: I was provided with Smirnoff Vodka for a review. As always, all opinions are my own.
I am SO SAD that you no longer have your bottle of Wild Honey vodka. That's a travesty. But, I'm a huge fan of caramel apples and it is the season so I'm so into making that martini.
