(I was sent a bottle of Smirnoff Ice Grape to try for myself. I was not asked to create a post for it or paid for my opinion. My opinion is mine and completely honest.)
Have you ever tried flavored Smirnoff Ice before?
Did you know it comes in GRAPE?!?!
I was unaware that Smirnoff Ice had so many new flavors.
Back when I used to drink it there was only original. Then some time later I remember seeing it in a flavor…..raspberry maybe?
I’m not 100{fc3f376329c99bd779b6ce2458e4c36cbf71a84b322032467f8d6f12beb3a1d6} sure because by then I didn’t drink them anymore…..and kind of forgot about them.
Fast forward to now.
Grape?!?! I looooove the flavor of grape! Grape jolly ranchers, grape lollipops………oh grape.
I was sent a couple recipes with these 2 bottles (one was another flavor…….stay tuned for that post!!)
This cocktail is an interesting combo and an interesting color.
All of that aside, I really enjoyed it! I can totally taste the grape flavor, which was what I was really really hoping for.
Despite it’s color, it’s a winner in my book!
So basically you add the Smirnoff Ice Grape.
Add some Chambord.
Some orange juice.
Mix it up and pour it into a fun glass.
You could always put some unlit candles near your cocktail.
Or go crazy and light them, it’s really up to you!
But seriously, this is a tasty grape flavored cocktail with a color that I think is perfect for Halloween!
