What Flavored vodkas are best for mixing?!
Answers: I recently bought a few bottles of plain Smirnoff vodka from the liquor store, which is what I prefer because it's rather cheap and lasts a long time, but I forgot to ask what flavored vodkas they had. A lot are out there, but which ones would be more ideal for mixing as opposed to some of the other flavors in Smirnoff's flavored line? Vanilla is a shoe-in, so is Watermelon, but some of the other flavors seem limited in what you could mix it with. I'm just looking for reasons, like: why would you choose Cranberry over Blueberry or Apple over Strawberry and why. I just want to know which flavors are more versatile as far as mixing because the last thing I want to do is buy a flavor that has a really bad taste that can't be mixed with anything. Any suggestions?
you may go online to webtender.com and it shows you hundreds and more of drink recipes and all alcohols
ive liked it in coke cherry coke and gatorade that was the 1st time i had it then i had other mixes and they werent good to me
the berry Absolut Vodka mixed with passion fruit juice or Maracuya juice is simply the nest tasting thing in the world.
i would just go w regular smirnoff thats the most versatile. or even lemon or citrus is pretty versatile.
citrus flavors work great with almost anything oh yeah and watermelon is the best
Vanilla vodka with coke tastes great, but my favorite vodka mix is a vodka martini, extra dry. Sounds a bit stuck up but I ain't ever tasted a nicer mix yet in my opinion.
lime and strawberry go good with just about anything those are the two I use apple isn't a good mixer gives it a bitter sweet sour taste ugh and i hate cranberry or blue berry
im not really sure... i love strawberry smirnoff with smooth flavored sunny delight... i know it sounds kinda weird but it taste good... well @ least i think so.... : )
absolute pepper for making bloody Mary's is good.
there are alot of different drinks you can make try and see what you come up with
Depends on what you are making.

Moose Ma
all vodkas are OK for mixing.but for you taste is stipend on the individual
Flavoured Vodka is the equivalent to a GIANT MARKETING SCAM. Why? Because Vodka is meant to be flavoured by YOU, these concoctions are for the young inexperienced drinkers and are usually swilled down staight. If you want tasty Vodka drinks, use your own flavorings.
As a bartender I use cherry and raspberry vodka more than my other flavored vodka....they go well with soda, redbull, coke, sprite...pretty much anything
