Looking at Vodka Cocktails

Vodka is one of the most popular liquors out there, especially when it comes to mixed drinks and various cocktails.  One of the major reasons for this is that the liquor has very little extra sharpness that many other hard liquors have, which makes this clean and clear tasting alcohol ideal for mixed drinks and cocktails since the flavors will come through as opposed to the sharpness of any alcohol.  This is what makes many vodka drinks so popular.

There are many different types of vodka cocktails, so many in fact that it is all but impossible to list them all since new ones are being made all the time.  This is especially true now that there are many flavored vodkas which add even more of a twist to various mixtures and concoctions which can result in entirely new mixed drinks.

Vodka cocktails vary widely in taste, appearance, and set up because there is so much that can be done with such a clean liquor.  For example, the "White Russian," which is also commonly referred to as a "Caucasian" by the same movie that made the drink a cult classic among college students in the first place (The Big Lebowski), has a very coffee and cream taste due to other ingredients, while a Bloody Mary tastes like strong vegetable juice, and a screwdriver either tastes like orange juice or it tastes like orange juice with a sharp kick.  All of these are extremely different tastes and designs, so it's not hard to see how there can be so much information on various mixed drinks and so many different opinions on different vodka cocktails to try.

There also are many more cocktails that have vodka as a main ingredient or part of a mixture, but which vodka couldn't be considered the main liquor: such as a Long Island Iced Tea or an Adios M-Fer!  I hope you found this blog post informative, and the links also lead to some great resources all about Vodka Drinks and their many forms.
