Tom Singleton, Brand Director at Franklin & Sons: “Vodka is at the core of many popular cocktails across the UK, from classics such as the Vodka Martini and Cosmopolitan, through to modern favourites like the Passion Fruit Martini. The spirit is famed for its clean base, making it easy to elevate in cocktails with creative sodas, tonics, and ingredients.
“This National Vodka Day, we’ve partnered with Holy Grass Vodka and Angostura, and are thrilled to share our take on the trending hard seltzer with fans of vodka across the UK.
“To create the serve, add 50ml of Holy Grass Vodka and a dash of Angostura bitters to an ice filled glass. Stir, and top up with Franklin & Sons Guava & Lime Soda. For the perfect serve, garnish with a wedge of lime.
“If you don’t win, you can still try something new this National Vodka Day. The beauty of vodka is that it’s a flexible spirit that you can easily get creative with. If you’re a fan of the classic vodka and mixer, try a more flavourful soda, swap in a smoother vodka, or add a dash of bitters to elevate your serve.”
The cocktail kit includes:
- A 50ml dram of Holy Grass Vodka
- An Angostura Orange Bitters miniature
- Franklin & Sons Guava & Lime Soda
- A dried lime wedge
