• Vodka - a distilled clear alcohol made from grains or potatoes, originating in Poland and Russia. 

• Lemon-lime soda - carbonated soft drinks made with lemon and lime flavoring. Common examples are 7 Up and Sprite. 

Bar Accessories

The ingredients of a good drink are just as important as the tools used to make them. Here are some cool things to learn about the tools you’ll need. 

• Highball Glass - a glass that contains 240-350 ml that is about 2 ³⁄₄ in diameter by 6 in. in height.

• Cocktail jigger- a cocktail measuring tool that holds approximately 0.5-2.5 oz. 

• Bar Spoon- long-handled spoon used for stirring drinks.

The Rise in Fame

Throughout the years, people have become more interested in a lot of variations of drinks because of their adventurous palettes and simply because parties are not getting old. The Midwest sure has a lot of parties especially after their thrilling football games, and with it, the emergence of the UV Blue was very well accepted on a global scale. 

Furthermore, UV blue vodka is known to have originated in Minnesota, United States and is made from Minnesotan water from the aquifers of Princeton. The process behind this beverage involves a three-bed deionization of purification to get the correct pH balance between 6.0 and 7.0. The fresh  raspberries it is infused with gives it a hint of sweetness that goes well when mixed with other beverages to make an awesome drink. 

The Perfect Pair

The Ice Bomb is basically vodka and there are numerous foods that go well with it, especially those that are smoked or cured.  Some of the most prominent smoked dishes include pork barbeque, cheese, chicken, turkey, assorted vegetables and fish. On the other hand, meats are associated with curing and some of the best and most familiar ones are pepperoni, bacon, pastrami, prosciutto, chorizo and pancetta. Check them out!
