It's National Vodka Day!



“The Water of Life”
The versatile, once virtually tasteless and odorless tipple accounts for almost 20 to 25 per cent of spirits sold today in North America, making it our most popular libation, a feat that occurred in the 1970s when it outpaced bourbon as America’s favorite spirit. We raise our glass on October 4 to toast National Vodka Day!

Why Celebrate October 4th?
While October 4th seems well documented as National Vodka Day, we have not found the origins of why, but it works for us. No harm celebrating responsibly on other days as well.

I'm looking around for a marshmallow flavor or a cake flavor. I know they're out there. I noticed a cupcake flavor in your list.

Vodka is cool. Get the clear stuff (and there exists pink, blue, green, and yellow vodkas...) and no one can tell if it's a froo-froo flavor like cotton candy.

I like my vodkas sweet and strong.

Like my women...
