What Grandma Drinks

I love this series, don’t you? Grandma Drinks! Yeah, she does.

Calling all slushes discerning imbibers…HELLO!

Fine.  Pretend not to lurk in the liquor aisle while I discuss this amazing find.

~Deep Eddy Sweet Tea Vodka~

Every Southern heart just swooned.

Take a minute.  Breathe.  Reread if necessary. Ready?  OK, let’s break it down: It’s vodka that actually tastes like sweet tea.

I popped into our local Costco alkeehol store to grab a bag of ice and a vodka-tasting was in progress.  Husband was waiting for me in the truck, my designated driver, so I threw back a sample, slammed the tiny plastic cup on the makeshift bar, then shot up the joint with my pistols.

Fine.  There was no throwing back anything, just a dainty sip, and I certainly wasn’t carrying my Western shoot-em-up bar pistols that day.  But, that itty-bitty taste was all it took; I was hooked.

What a revelation this vodka is.  Clean, crisp, delicious, but best of all it’s made-in Texas, y’all.

I envision the fire pit roaring on a cold December evening while sipping this vodka (with a splash of lemonade) and dreaming of summer.

Yet, with the good comes the bad.  Take a look at the packaging.

That’s right, mason jars.

No, just no.

Or, as my sister would say: WHOO-HOO!  Mason jars!

I asked if I could just get the vodka.  They said this particular packaging was all they had in stock.  ~ugh~  I swear, ever since I openly talked about how I just can’t board the mason jar mania train, they’re stalking me.

But…you guys are love them, and because I love you (why does love have to hurt?), you can get the Deep Eddy mason jars HERE.

Do you love sweet tea?  Do you like vodka? Are you a sucker for thangs made in Texas?  Get to your favorite liquor store (come on…we know you have one) and GET SOME!

Then, proceed to amaze your vodka-loving friends.  That is if you decide to share.

I totally will.

If you happen to be in the neighborhood, on a cold December day, come around back and join me by the fire pit and we’ll toast the coming summer together.

Share It!
