Cocktail of the Week: Van Gogh Vodka

By Christabelle…
A lover of the arts…there is nothing finer than admiring artwork with a refreshing cocktail in hand.  Super premium Van Gogh Vodka, Van Gogh’s flavored vodkas and Van Gogh Gin are distilled and bottled by the Royal Dirkzwager Distilleries in Schiedam, Holland. The city is famous since the 16th century not only because of the excellent water quality but also for innovation in distillation sciences. Who knew?  Now shake me up…WELL.
