lately i have been experimenting with Infused Vodkas.
i have so far had much success with Cocoa Infused Vodka, Lemon and Lime Vodka, Lemon Vodka, Lime Vodka and Ginger Infused Vodka. I have found a whole lot of ruckus on the web over Bacon Vodka, and a load of other Scrumptious Bacon-ey Things, which will be addressed later. however, my Roommate and I have come up with the most wonderful of all alcohol mixes, what i refer to as "The Holy Trinity" : The Southwestern Breakfast Trio (or as i call it, Breakfast Of Champions).
this consist of Bacon Vodka, Jalapeno Vodka, and Corn Vodka.
the Bacon we had wanted to try, since seeing the idea on the internet. the jalapeno was my own idea, being a chili head. after i made it i googled jalapeno vodka and discovered that i am not the only one to think of this GENIUS idea. the corn vodka was all his idea, but i works extremely well paired with the other two. this is what i call "The Breakfast of Champions: the Southwestern Vodka Trio" and it is, for lack of a better adjective, AWESOME!
the bacon vodka smells questionable at first, but goes down smooth with a robust meaty finish. it is literally like drinking liquid bacon! i was excited, then skeptical, then ASTONISHED at how delectable is really is. it is great alone, but even better in a Holy Trinity Shot.
the jalapeno vodka is the most amazing thing i have ever ingested, with the exception of Absinthe (for obvious reasons). it tastes like a crisp bite of a freshly picked pepper, but subdued enough to drink with food, warms the throat but doesn't water the eyes, and tastes nothing like vodka at all. seriously, it is the most wonderful thing since cocoa vodka and sliced bread. for the full deliciousness effect, i suggest taking shots and chasing them with quesadillas or hot dogs. or more jalapeno vodka. :) this is worth drinking by itself.
the Sweet Grilled Corn Vodka tastes... well, it tastes like corn! corn on the cob, like a picnic. not the most expected thing, but rounds off the trio quite nicely with a sweet, cool finish.
the best way to drink these is The Holy Trinity Shot, where you pour 1 full shot of each and slam them down.
its a great post work reboot, or even better as a festival breakfast.
