The world of flavored vodka ensures that there will be a considerable amount of new efforts that are added to store shelves every year. Svedka is a company that has been able to add to the dialogue considerably, and their Colada Vodka (coconut / pineapple) is something special. The flavor is natural without being too faint, while having an assertive enough profile to hide the vodka burn. Svedka Colada is a perfect mixing vodka, ensuring that a Screwdriver or gimlet has a bold and distinct flavor. The blend of pineapple and coconut provides the perfect tropical feel, imbuing a spring (or summer) feel to any drinking session. For those that are more adventurous, the quality of Svedka is enough that taking down a few shots will be an eminently memorable time. For those that want a stiff drink, Svedka Colada can be drank neat or on the rocks; I feel that the addition of water to the vodka provides a considerably different effect than simply drinking the vodka straight.
Svedka Colada is one of the rare flavored vodkas that is able to keep the spirit of the spirit proper; a number of efforts suffer by decreasing the vodka’s potency too far. As Svedka Colada is 75 proof (a decrease of about 2.5% from typical efforts), imbibers will get more than their money’s worth each time that they purchase a bottle.
Svedka Colada can be purchased at any well-stocked liquor or spirits store for around $16. Check out the Svedka website for a listing of their products and the various drinks which you can make utilizing their efforts.
