Whether you loved 2022 or hated it, it’s time to move on and ring in the new year. That’s why we are sharing a few vodka cocktails to help you forget about 2022 and move onto 2023! These beverages are both strong and tasty, and are excellent options especially when they’re made with RocaBella Brands’ vodka. Here are 3 strong, flavorful, and refreshing vodka cocktails that you can whip up for New Year’s Eve.
Cosmopolitan
The classic cosmopolitan is both beautiful and delicious. We had to feature this one because sometimes the most simple drinks are the best drinks. To make one, combine 1½ oz. RocaBella Brands Ultra Premium vodka, ¾ oz. triple sec, ½ oz. lime juice and ¼ oz cranberry juice in a shaker with ice cubes and shake vigorously until chilled. Strain into a martini glass and garnish with a lime wedge or fresh cranberries if desired. Enjoy!
Lemon Drop Martini
Don’t let its sweetness deceive you. This sweet little drink certainly packs a punch, especially when you have a bit of extra time to indulge in something special. Begin by rimming your glass with sugar or salt (or both!) then pour 2 oz RocaBella Brands Ultra Premium vodka, 1 oz lemon juice, ½ oz simple syrup into the glass and stir well with a spoon over ice cubes if desired. Garnish with lemon peel if desired before serving. Cheers!
Moscow Mule
This classic Moscow Mule recipe is sure to be a hit among your guests – even those who aren’t big fans of liquor! The ginger beer is full of flavor and distracts from the crispness of the vodka. (Even though all RocaBella vodka is distilled 6 times to ensure ultimate smoothness!) Simply fill your favorite copper mug about halfway full of ice cubes then add 2 ounces of RocaBella Brands Ultra Premium vodka, 4 ounces of ginger beer and squeeze in 1/2-ounce fresh lime juice from half a lime wedge before stirring well with a spoon or straw and garnishing with the other half lime wedge before serving cold. Yum!
2022 was a long year, so let’s kick off 2023 by only enjoying the greatest cocktails possible. Whether you’re looking for something extra special or just want to surprise your friends on the weekend – these three strong vodka cocktails are sure to impress! All of them are easy to make – no matter what skill level you have behind the bar. So, why not kick off the New Year with one of these? Don’t forget to have fun experimenting with different flavors and ingredients, as well as variations on the recipes to create something truly unique that everyone will love!
