Viva Vodka: Colorful Cocktails with a Kick

From the author of Viva Margarita, a collection of fifty vodka-based recipes for cocktails, shooters, and shots, plus infusions, rims, and syrups.

A cocktail lover’s dream, vodka goes with almost anything, from lemons to raspberries to mint to tomato juice. So, dive into one of these refreshing and potent recipes for vodka-based drinks, down-and-dirty shooters, frosty patio coolers, frozen and creamy indulgences. You’ll find dazzling new flavor combinations—sure, the recipe for a classic martini is in here, but why stop there? Sit back and enjoy a Caipirovska, the Russian equivalent of Brazil’s famous Caipirinha. Or take a sip of the Arrivederci Capri, a sunny little drink with citrusy limoncello. And to get really hardcore, turn to the In-a-Vodka-Da-Vida section filled with knockout recipes for shooters and shots. Add to that tips and advice on stocking a stellar vodka bar, making vodka infusions (vanilla vodka, watermelon vodka, yes, yes, yes!), and creating swanky sugar and salt rims. Viva Vodka—there’s a whole lotta shakin’ goin’ on.
