One Night By The Fire

The Three Olives flavorists spent this past winter locked in our London laboratory, driven by one goal: to discover the newest, tastiest, "I-can't-believe-this-hasn't-been-done-before" Three Olives flavor. Experimentation was so intense that at one point a battle nearly broke out between senior flavorist Graham, who wanted something savory, and Marsha, who craved sweet. But it was Wilson, the flavorist behind Loopy, who fused all the flavors together into a product so spectacular they can hardly believe their glass! They are ecstatic to announce to you, devoted fans, their latest creation: Introducing Three Olives S'mores! A mouth-watering blend of imported English vodka with the delicious flavors of chocolate, marshmallow, and graham cracker. Three Olives S'mores will hit the US market nationally in July 2012. You can be the first to raise the heat with this exclusive, delicious S'mores cocktail recipe, "The Campfire Martini!" Rim a martini glass in chocolate syrup and dip in crushed graham crackers. Pour 3 oz. Three Olives S'mores Vodka into a shaker filled with ice. Stir and strain the vodka into martini glass. Garnish with three toasted marshmallows on a skewer. Thanks to our friends at Three Olives

Try Dunking This In Coffee

It is now well known that in 1938, the Salvation Army declared the first Friday in June as National Donut Day. 360 Vodka did not disappoint by introducing the decadent 360 Glazed Donut. Just one whiff of its pungent deliciousness and you know that smell is unmistakable. 360 has a vast collection of twelve different flavors. Adding the 360 Glazed Donut is just another notch in the belt. Of course known as the Earth Friendly Distilling Company, this bottle follows suit. Expect to see more “Donuts” on the shelves starting July 1st. Finally, another vodka suited for breakfast.

Bold Cherry

In June of 2012 Southern Comfort will expand its family of brands and launch a Bold Black Cherry. Southern Comfort’s new Bold Black Cherry is a mixture of Southern Comfort with whiskey and cherry flavors. "The launch of Southern Comfort Bold Black Cherry continues the brand's innovation with new flavors which began with Southern Comfort Lime in 2010 and continued with Southern Comfort Fiery Pepper last fall," said Mark Bacon, VP, Managing Director, Southern Comfort. "We feel Bold Black Cherry will recruit new consumers into the Southern Comfort franchise who enjoy a distinctive flavor profile in their cocktails." Infused with natural cherry to deliver an authentic taste that's smooth and invigorating, Southern Comfort Bold Black Cherry has been designed to appeal to a broad age range and meet consumer demand for great tasting flavors that are unique. The brand is confident the new expression will continue to increase relevancy amongst younger drinkers, offering a bolder drink that's ideal for high energy occasions. Thanks to our friends at NC&B
