Wine Wednesday: EFFEN Vodka


I know it seems like I’ve been talking about New York Fashion Week for a while now, but there was just so much going on!!  There’s still a bit more to share, but I really wanted to share today the Mercedes Benz Signature Cocktails.
They were created by EFFEN® Vodka (yes, saying it the first time you we did chuckle - effen \ e-‘fen \ adj. Dutch) and they were a complete hit!

EFFEN® Vodka is a smooth and balanced super-premium vodka named after the Dutch word for “smooth.” As the only vodka created by the industry, for the industry, EFFEN Vodka not only offers a world-class liquid but a sleek, form-meets-function design. Made from premium wheat and using a patented distillation process, the EFFEN product line includes EFFEN Vodka, EFFEN® Black Cherry Vodka and EFFEN® Raspberry Vodka.

Based on a 125-year old Dutch recipe, the flavors in EFFEN Black Cherry and EFFEN Raspberry are all natural, with no artificial flavors or preservatives.  I don’t think any other vodka has this claim.  Ok, so as you are walking down your own runway or just hanging out with your friends, have a Effen cocktail.  Bet it makes you smile.
