Vodka for Breakfast


From whipped cream to marshmallow to birthday cake, vodka companies are thinking outside of the box to sell bottles. And now, you can have vodka for breakfast!

Introducing Three Olives Loopy vodka :)
.
Three Olives themselves describe Loopy as “A dastardly delicious medley of tropical fruit and imported English vodka." I'm betting you can pour this stuff over ice and call it a night!
.
If you aren’t a fan of overly sugary spirits (or Froot Loops) then this one probably isn’t for you. The used PLENTY of sugar, and heavy notes of tropical flavor used to re-create the popular Froot Loop brand...which probably means this stuff is likely to be lethal.

Errbody in the Krem gettin' tipsy


The Russian government has launched its own brand of vodka, to be served at official events. The new vodka, titled Kremlin Award, was presented at the ProdExpo 2012 exhibit in Moscow on Tuesday.

The vodka is already being served at official events, a government spokesperson told RIA Novosti and The New York Post reports that one online retailer was already selling the government booze for at the reasonable cost of 792 rubles (about $26).

Russians' average vodka consumption? A staggering 18 liters per person a year, according to official data.

Kinda sounds like shooting fish in a barrel.

Hmmmm....that seems like a big batch. Makes sense :)

Baby will you be my corona and lime? I will be your main squeeze


This new Corona drinking game is designed to do one thing: get ya druuunk! Soooo....everybody wins.

You will need 6 friends and a six-pack of Corona. Unfold the box, pop open the bottles, use the caps as markers, and scan the QR code (weird bar code thing) with your smartphone to get your dice and game cards.

Cherry pie leather seats, roofies on tomato soup


Bryant Park Hotel's Cellar Bar is offering three new seasonal soups, alcohol included.

There are three variations on the "Soup Cocktails:" a Lobster Bisque, "infused with Harvey's Bristol Crème and porto, with seasonal spices and cayenne pepper," an Herb-Tomato, "blended with vodka and raspberry liqueur and finished with a pinch of sea salt, dry basil and black pepper," and a Carrot Ginger with, "Domaine de Canton and Frangelico liqueurs."

At $9 each, the soups are more affordable than the $12 martini, and obviously more filling.

Shall we do lunch?
