A New Way To Do Grape
On a recent trip to my favorite hole-in-the-wall hot spot, Faherty’s, Joe (bartender extraordinaire) whipped out a brand spankin’ new vodka. As I said in a recent post, this is the time of year when I trade my Guinness for light lagers, and whiskey for vodkas. He had just gotten Smirnoff White Grape in stock, and was dying to try it himself. We saluted the coming of spring with a shot of the refreshing vodka, straight up. Delicious! I promptly ordered myself a double White Grape Vodka and Soda and enjoyed the hub-bub around the Elmwood Strip and Faherty’s fantastic patio.
I’ve made mention of this before, but I am truly a great fan of simple drinks. It doesn’t have to have 18 ingredients to be a success - in fact, I hope I never come upon a cocktail bearing 18 ingredients (and I’m sure my bartender friends feel the same way). This week, treat yourself to something light and cool, with a bit of bubbly, for spring.
White Grape Vodka and Soda
1½ oz Smirnoff White Grape Vodka
Club soda, to taste
Twist of lime
Fill a rocks glass with ice. Add vodka, then fill with soda to taste. Give a quick stir and finish with a twist of lime and a cocktail straw.
Cheers!
