With its flavored spirits, raspberry vodka is a fun choice for cocktail enthusiasts and DIY experimenters.

Mixing fruit into vodka has been a tradition for centuries, especially in Eastern European countries like Poland and Russia. Even though commercial flavored vodkas have flooded the market, there’s something more satisfying about making your own at home.

Raspberry vodka and fruit cocktails are easy to drink, but that’s why people often drink more than they should. This drink is often found in bars or at home parties. A glass of raspberry vodka with friends on a weekend evening is the way to enjoy life.
