Flavored Vodka Thread

[Mr McJohnson]

Any sour flavour ideas?

And to those saying it's too early...it's never too early. I've already bought my drugs for this years glasto!

Jelly babies.

Jelly babies, jelly babies, jelly babies.

My experience - you literally can't beat cherry drop. It's the nuts. Especially with coke

Pear drop was nice but had the consistency of glue. Mixed with red bull it sent me a little bit dolally.

Wether's Original. YUCK. I don't know what happened but between leaving my house (fine) and getting to ATP it curdled. I ended up throwing it in the see in a fit of pique.

Kola cubes and rhubarb and custard were both nic3e but I didn't use enough sweets so it still tasted too much of vodka

Or if in a glass bottle put in the dishwasher, works a treat!

Currently giving the jelly babies a go. Its looking pretty grim at the moment though!

I run a bar so we make our own flavoured vodkas all year round - we took so many with us last year we put ourselves off the stuff for months!! This is the menu so far:

Wham Bar

Highland Toffee Bars

Yellow & Pink Refresher Bars

Nutella

Mars Bar

Fruit Salad Chews

Blackjacks

Foxes Glacier Mints

Parma Violets

Pear Drops

Rhubarb & Custard

Blackcurrent & Liquorice

Sherbet Lemons

Cola Cube

Skittles - We make them up seperately into the five flavours - the colours look better that way too.

We're trying these three next week: Beer Bottles - Sarsaparilla - Chocolate Limes

We've done White Choc in the past but it's an arse afterwards. Love Hearts make so much fizz/foam/mess and also explode out of the bottle when you open the lid!

Foxes Glacier fruits don't really have a strong enough flavour so they don't work that well. As a general rule, the strong the flavour in the sweet the better, unless you *want* to taste the vodka.

Next step up from cherry drops is actual cherries. Fresh Strawberry vodka is good too, though for both it's best to add some sugar.

We used fox's and found that ideal on chilly nights

Fox's dark gives you a delicous aniseed & liquorice...

This time yesterday I would've said it was too early to think about this - HOWEVER - After being inspired by this thread I have just gone and made my first few bottles of the year!

Thanks a lot guys - It's so good to be reminded of such amazing things!!

[JC-Mo'Fucka]

Yeah mine didn't go that well last year, was orite like but ended up buying a bottle of leomnade to go with it, which made it brilliant!.might give it another go this week actually cant remember if i needed less jelly baby or more. Also might not put the black ones in, looks proper grim

[westwardhoboy]

Gonna give the Skittles flavour a bash, as a first attempt.

For ratio advice, for a bottle of vodka is it just one of the small packs of skittles you get off the sweet shelf or a sack, like what you get at Asda?

Thanks.

I'll be flying in from Russia, as usual loaded up with several different varieties of vodka. Come up to our tents for a vodka tasting, you're all welcome, but you know, it's all as God intended, none of this flavoured nonsense. I'd be deported from the country if I suggested putting sweets in vodka here

[saratink]

The thing is i'm worried about is the amount of sugar going into them!

I had skittles vodka last year and after drinking half a bottle, my teeth were furry!!

[rachbon]

i like the idea of cherry drop vodka, might give that a go.

[Funkyfairy!]

Cherry drops work really well

I had a bottle of Cadbury Creme egg vodka and mixed it with milk as a bedtime drink when we got back to the campervan

Foxes glacier mint Vodka was mouthwash :-)

[Liam13th]

I made a coffee one in previous years. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone.

[oldbird]

Butterscotch angel delight with Baileys is fantastic.

[celticvillan]
