Absolut Boston

The clever marketing strategists on the Absolut Vodka team have come up with one more vodka based on the "city" theme, and just in time to commemorate Massachussetts Senator Ted Kennedy's passing away this week. It's called Absolut Boston, and reviews that I've seen say you'll either love it or spit it back into your glass.

The vodka recipe is infused with a strong black tea and elderflower, but it isn't sweetened up, says Colleen Graham on the Cocktail blog at About.com, but has fantastic cocktail mixing possibilities. Proceeds from the sales of the Boston brand, though, go toward environmental causes in the city of Boston, so it may be worth buying to try even if you don't end up liking it.

Other "city" variations by Absolut include Los Angeles and New Orleans. Visit www.abosolut.com for more details. Tea Party TimeTea Party Time
