What Can I Make With Vanilla Vodka?
I bought some Smirnoff’s Twist of Vanilla Vodka and it smells heavenly.
I’ve tried adding some to Diet Coke and it’s wonderful, but I’m wondering what else I can do with this great drink?
Do you have any good cocktail recipes using Smirnoff’s Vanilla Vodka? If so, please share.

Go to the health food store, buy a vanilla bean. Add to a small amount of vodka and store for a few days in a small glass jar. You’ve got Vanilla flavoring!

I’ve made cinnamon vodka by leaving cinnamon bark in the vodka for a few days. It’s delicious! Then I add it to things like lemon iced tea. That would probably be good with the vanilla vodka as well.
Try these suggestions:

I’ve also used vanilla bean and cinnamon bark to flavor rum, and used it in recipes, substituting for vanilla extract.

Vanilla vodka was my booze of choice all throughout college. It tastes good with diet coke, orange soda, root beer, dr pepper, and surprisingly enough, tastes AMAZINGGG with arizona diet green tea.

Rasberry Vodka, Chambord, Lemon/lime soda and OJ make my house drink. I’m thinking with Vanilla Vodka you could make a killer summertime vanilla mojito.
6-8 Fresh mint leaves
1 Tbsp. sugar
1 oz. Vanilla Vodka
1 oz. light cane rum
4 oz. gingerbeer(vanilla soda works well too)
Muddle the mint and sugar in the bottom of a tall glass (use a wooden spoon handle if you don’t have a muddling stick). The mint should be partially crushed to release the flavor. Add Rum and Vodka shake well. Top with Gingerbeer. If entertaing you could rim the glass in sugar by dipping in a shallow pan of water followed by a shallow pan of sugar and garnish with a sprig of mint.

I would say that any desert would be apropiate for vanilla vodka. But the secret is the quantity to make it real good!

Vanilla vodka and coke is my absolute favorite

That’s my favorite. It goes with so many different types of foods because of its vanilla base.
