WARNING: Infused vodka, is still vodka. We are not turning vodka into a sipping liqueur with these recipes, we’re simply adding a touch of flavour. So, unless you typically sip vodka straight up, consider using infused vodka in your favourite drink mixes. Here are some ideas:

Champagne Cocktail

1 oz infused vodka (chilled)
1 oz fruit juice (to complement the vodka flavour)
3 oz champagne (chilled)
berries or fruit as garnish

Place 1-4 berries in the bottom of a champagne flute. Add vodka and fruit juice. Top with champagne.

1/2 oz triple sec
1 oz fruit juice
