    Tried this on Thanksgiving. It just tastes like plain vodka. The fry taste is almost imperceptible. Must just be a marketing gimmick. I tried the other Arby's vodka flavor as well.

    Crinkle fry vodka instead of curly fry vodka. The curly fry is supposed to have hints of paprika and cayenne. The crinkle fry one is just salt and sugar flavors

    parent root
    3 points OblottenEndmills

    It's the Canadian (IMO superior) version of a Bloody Mary. Only difference is a Ceasar has Clamato which is a tomato juice with clam which adds an extra tang to the drink. 10/10 flavour explosion.

    This reminds me of the time I took this vodka that was called "Bakon". It had floaties at the bottom, my friend and I assumed it was just some by-product of bacon.

    We thought it was strange that it didn't resemble the flavor of bacon whatsoever...

    It was backwash. 🤢🤮

    I have made roasted potato liqueur as well as tater tot liqueur when I was bored. Turned out quite well if one likes potatoes more than anything in the world.

    I believe that making it a liqueur is far more versatile for making cocktails. In fact, I made a beer cocktail with it that also incorporated mayonnaise. I need to revisit that again to play with the base spirits.

    Most hard liquors already taste like poison. Nowhere to go but up, am I right? Edit : I enjoy brandy and whisky. I was trying to make a joke to appeal to what I thought was the popular opinion towards hard liquor at the time of the comment.

    99% of the flavoured vodka I've tried has been underwhelming or disgusting.
    Actual good vodka can be drunk neat because it's smooth. Cheap vodka that needs a mixer seems to be the only ones that have wild flavours introduced.
    A good example is Absolut vodka. The bog standard plain version is like paint-stripper and begs for a mixer. The 15-20 flavoured versions all taste like paint-stripper, but chemically flavoured, as if AI created an approximation of what it's supposed to taste like with a crappy prompt.

    Edit: after looking, I've just stumbled upon some of my favourite vodka brands who have flavoured options that I never knew existed. I'm over 6 years without drinking so I won't be trying them but I shouldn't be surprised. Marketing is marketing when capitalism is the way.
