Enjoying one right now, as a matter of fact.

Don't get me wrong. I like vodka, too. Even shaken over ice and served in a martini glass with a twist (lemon or lime).

Is your mind on your money and your money on your mind?

Like I said in the other thread; Belvedere is my shooting vodka of choice, U'Luvka over ice is the best sipping vodka I've ever had.

That was an attempt at a joke, a redirect to the other liquid in your sig.

Yes, I feel great shame for my terrible stab at humor.

This man speaks the truth, Vodka IMO and I know this is harsh is tasteless by itself. Well compared to other liquors lets just say. So for my $$$$ Titos every time, it's cheap and quality stuff. I never get a hang over from drinking 7-10 vodka redbulls.

Not a straight vodka drinker, doesn't do anything for me. I can do it sure...but over-proof bourbons (53%-67.4%) are my drink of choice, straight no ice or water.

Also a friend got me hooked on vodka redbulls....they are fantastic for getting hammered at least the way I make them.

No offense intended, Bill....Drink what you like, like what you drink.

Way ahead of you brother!

Around here we call Vodka & Redbulls "Dancing Idiots".

Usually Firefly, Smirnoff or Titos. I did a taste test a couple years ago with about 8 different brands in mini-bottles. I could not tell them apart. I am usually mixing it anyway.

+1 for Edit 2...

BUT, why the hell can't you get the proper stuff in the US? Is Bison Grass gonna kill me, or is it the fact that there is a blade of said grass in the bottle, which might mean some drunk twunt accidentally plants it and introduces an alien grass species to the US?

ucla695 · 10-06-2010, 08:05 AM

Ciroc then Chopin.

St. Lou Stu · 10-06-2010, 08:05 AM

Rain.

According to Wikipedia "because bison grass contains the toxic compound coumarin, which is prohibited as a food additive by the Food and Drug Administration, importing of Żubrówka into the United States was banned in 1978 by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms."

And the reason why the U.S. version tastes different "when produced according to traditional methods (between one and two kilograms of grass per thousand litres of alcohol), Żubrówka contains approximately 12 milligrams of coumarin per litre. In 1999, Polish distilleries introduced reformulated U.S.-export versions of the product, sometimes using artificial flavours and colours, always with the emblematic blade of grass in every bottle, but "neutralised" and coumarin-free."

Lumpold · 10-06-2010, 08:53 AM

That's mental. I bet there are millions of Eastern Europeans, and Asians, who will testify that Coumarin isn't all that deadly.
