UV Vodka released their new flavor recently and Melody and I were
elated to see that it was “candy bar”.
Chocolate and caramel flavored vodka.
Naturally we rushed to the store to acquire a bottle and see what we
could come up with. We tried what they
had suggested online and also some other variations. Truth is, and I say this with a tear in my
eye and a dry throat, we didn’t love it.
The caramel overpowers the chocolate.
We couldn’t find a mixer that was excellent with it besides the creamy
ones. And for anyone counting
calories, that’s a dangerously slippery drinking slope.
We tried it with:
Diet Pepsi
Diet Pepsi and milk
Diet Pepsi, milk and Kahlua
My homemade Irish cream
Diet Pepsi and my homemade Irish cream
Our favorites were mixing it with the Irish cream or milk, Kahlua and
diet Pepsi. For my tastes, it would
probably be better used in shots rather than a full drink. Or with ice cream. That would be awesome.
Fear not, we will continue to attempt other recipes that don’t include
cream until that bottle is gone. And as
always, we will pass it along to you.

I love this flavor mixed with Diet Gingerale
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad I can get the single dose sizes for new flavors of UV (and now Kinky). Nothing worse than buying a huge bottle and finding out you would rather drink cough syrup!!
ReplyDeleteReally tasty with ginger ale!
