Fashion Fierce Vanilla Cocktails
Vanilla Vodka has been very fashion fierce for about two years now and the recipes for vanilla drinks just keep getting better and better.
Vanilla flavored vodka tastes great on its own and some enjoy it mixed with coke or root beer. Others enjoy vanilla vodka mixed with a variety of different flavors for incredibly decadent martinis.\
Try these recipes as a dessert at the next dinner party or celebration… Make sure to garnish with suggested ingredients. Many vanilla vodkas are on the market such as Absolut Vanilla and Stolichnaya Vanilla.
