As drinks expert Harriet Leigh sees it, there’s a lot you can do with a splash of vodka.
“Vodka gives cocktails backbone, definition and strength,” she says. “It’s a wonderfully versatile spirit, lending itself to a plethora of cocktails.”
Head of hospitality at Sydney distillery Archie Rose, Leigh knows a thing or two about crafting the perfect drink. The trick to elevating a classic vodka soda into something a little more special, she says, starts with the bottle you reach for.
Archie Rose Native Botanical Vodka packs a delicate floral profile that puts it a cut above the standard spirit and lends itself well to light, bright cocktails and honeyed drinks.
It’s a spirit you can taste, thanks to local flavours such as Australian peach, lemon-scented gum and native sunrise lime, making it the ideal way to add a little wow factor to whatever you’re mixing.
Of course, to really make the perfect drink, you have to match it to the situation you’re drinking it in – and your personality. So how do you find the right vodka cocktail for you? Take our quiz to get your own personalised, professional-approved recommendation.
