I got something in the mail Monday that reminded me to update you all on my Vodka 360 post. To my surprise, a package I received contained a few Vodka 360 items in it, including an organic cotton t-shirt, an eco-friendly hat (I believe it is made from recycled materials), and two coasters, which are plantable and filled with marigold and cosmo seeds. There was also a nice letter:

Stefanie,

Thank you so much for your interest in Vodka 360! We are so glad to hear that you and your husband are such fans of the brand. To thank you for your loyalty I have enclosed a hat and t-shirt, made from environmentally friendly material, of course! If you need anything else, please feel free to reach out for me.

So I was reminded that I didn't update the last post on the flavor of the vodka. I personally don't like vodka unless it is in a mixed drink, so I had my husband try it, since we don't have the proper ingredients to make a good drink. He said that there is no comparison to cheaper brands; Vodka 360 surpasses them by a huge margin. He enjoyed the clean flavor and slight caramel undertone and said it would be good for any mixed drink that calls for vodka. He liked it so much, I had to stop him from pouring more!

One comment I didn't make in the last post: The eco-friendly aspect of Vodka 360 is great, but what I would recommend to improve it and appeal to even more people is to use organic ingredients. I read quite a few comments on the net about people expecting such an otherwise eco brand to be organic, and I have to agree. Otherwise, an amazing product (and local for us, too)

Here's a recipe from the 360 site that sounds yummy. Might be one of the first I get the ingredients to try:

360 Planetary Punch

Pour the ingredients into a cocktail shaker filled with ice and shake well. Strain into a chilled cocktail glass and drop a cherry into the glass as a garnish.
