With summer on it’s way to commencement, so will be the abundance of cookouts, rooftop parties, and good ‘ol fashioned drinking sessions.

With that said, I have entailed a few vodka flavors that you may not be knowledgeable of and recipes that are sure keep your taste buds satisfied and your body intoxicated.

Summer is the time us Americans like to embrace our tropical roots, or lack there of. We may not consider SVEDKA to be a top shelf brand, but it sure isn’t bottom-shelf, so if you’re balling on a budget SVEDKA Strawberry Colada would be a good look. SVEDKA Strawberry Colada is a tropical blend of vodka infused with strawberry, coconut, and pineapple. Yumm! But don’t forget in the words of Samuel L. Jackson … or Dave Chappelle, “It’ll get ya drunk.”
