I have spent most of today outside either sitting in the sun or doing some more on the decking as we have been able to buy more supplies. YAY!!!
Well this deserves a nice treat in the way of a drink. I'm partial to Vodka and will drink it mixed with most things (not coke or orange juice though!) I also like the pre-mixed vodka drinks.
About 8or so years ago I came across a pre-mixed bottle of Raspberry Vodka in a supermarket, it was bright pink in colour and tasted like Raspberry squash - it also went down in this way, but after 3 bottles (1 liter) it hits that it has vodka in it! This was lovely to drink on hot days. Sadly to say that just over a year ago the supermarket stopped selling it. :( I was gutted, I may have been in the few that bought it but they shouldn't have stopped it!
Since then I have been on a hunt for a replacement, that isn't very expensive and tastes nice. Well i've not had much luck until recently that is. When I discovered 2 things. 1 was Apple & raspberry juice from the chiller section in Aldi for 59p a carton-
This drink is actually very refreshing on its own and I drink quite a lot of it. THEN when I was in B&M the other week I saw a bottle of Raspberry & Vanilla Vodka for £4.99 a bottle, so I got 1. I thought I would taste it straight out the bottle and my god its strong, I spat it down the sink. And I don't waste alcohol.
Anyway, I decided to mix the Apple & Raspberry juice with the Raspberry & Vanilla Vodka and it is absolutely lush! The 2 blend together really well and complement each other and it tastes great. I'm not quite back where I was with the old pink supermarket stuff but its very close. Try it.
