Vodk-a Shot

Vodka Day is a great time to raise your glasses to one of the world’s favourite alcoholic drinks. While vodka is often associated with Russia, and some of the finest and most expensive vodkas in the world come from there, it is a drink that is produced in many countries and enjoyed all over the world.

Vodka is the Slavic word for ‘little water’ and is traditionally made by mixing water with distilled grains or potatoes, although today many popular brands add flavourings such as fruits and sugars. Purists drink vodka neat, but it makes the perfect mixer and is the main ingredient in many favourite cocktails, including the Martini, the Screwdriver and the Bloody Mary.

Did you know….Screwdriver is one of the easiest and fastest drinks to make. All it takes is:
60 ml Vodka
150 ml Orange Juice

Serve in a glass, with ice and orange slice to garnish.
