Potato Goodness!

So, I haven't been writing in a while and I thought I would hop on in and post about something that I think the world should know about. For anyone who hasn't had the pleasure, I have one word for you... Potato Vodka (ok, maybe 2 words, but they go together so nicely).

I had the sincere joy of partaking in the awesomeness that is potato vodka recently and I will probably never drink any other vodka as long as I live. Now before any smart guys go shooting me an e-mail about how vodka is supposed to be from potatoes anyway, I have some news for you. Almost all vodka on the market these days is made from grain, not potatoes, so there...

You ever notice how vodka and rubbing alcohol taste so much alike? Not so with potato vodka my friends. Potato vodka is about as smooth an alcohol as I've run across. I cannot say enough great things about this stuff. And it mixes so much better with anything (red bull, sprite, and cranberry juice are my personal faves) than regular vodka that it's almost like drinking a different alcohol. Now I can see some die-hard vodka fans preparing to stoop reading and to to you I say "wait". The overall flavor profile is virtually identical. The real difference is the drinkability (sorry Bud Light, I know I stole that from you). Potato vodka is just so smooth without losing everything you love about vodka taste (minus the ethanol taste).

The brand I had was called Luksusova Potato Vodka and it was very easy on the wallet. Give it a try and tell 'em Baron Bill sent ya!
