a peachy vodka

after weeks of whisky, time to go back to something peachy.
and thats exactly what i sipped at a pre-christmas party a week ago. writing it now before the next round of drinks to cheer in the new year.
yes, finally got a taste of absolute apeach.
and it was peachy.
tried it neat and the peachiness just came through.
tried it with ginger ale and the flavour took a life of its own, bursting with little nuances of sweetness and peachiness that only a peach could compare with.
as with all flavoured vodkas sold in duty-free shops in asia, specifically singapore, this absolut apeach came in a standard one-litre bottle with 40 percent alcohol by volume.
nice. 'tis the season indeed to be jolly... and peachy.

peachy little water - absolut apeach

this seventh sin is a peach.
absolut spirits has just introduced the absolut apeach, its seventh flavoured vodka since 1986. the others - as spelt by absolut - are peppar, mandrin, citron, kurant, vanilia and raspberri.
i have yet to taste raspberri.
the unflavoured absolut vodkas - vodka is russian for little water - are absolut blue and absolut red, which is 50 percent alcohol/volume unlike the rest which are 40 percent alcohol/volume.
as seen in the photo handout, the absolut apeach bottle is clad in shades of pink, yellow and orange hues inspired by the flesh of a succulent peach.
a suggested cocktail is the absolut apeach atrévete which includes 2 parts absolut apeach, 3 parts orange juice and 1 part grenadine. more drinks recipes available at the drinkalizer.
absolut is distributing the peachy one in the united states from may 2005 in 50ml, 750ml, 1-liter and 1.75 liter bottles.
