Public service announcement #1
In a fit of madness I bought a bottle of Peach Vodka. By now I should be used to doing dumb stuff and avoid them, especially bottles which look like they’re filled with ditch water that’s settling. But no I decided to continue along this path and then try and drink the stuff.
Bad idea.
Grabbing one of the Johnnie Walker tumblers on my desk I proceeded to pour myself a shot.
Which smells like a the syrup you get let over in canned peaches. Here in lies the problem. It doesn’t taste anything like peach syrup, it just tastes like vodka. Trying to drink it is akin to thinking something is caramel sauce, when in fact is is salted Tabasco sauce. It’s incredibly hard not to gag while drinking. Don’t get me wrong, normal vodka isn’t a problem to drink, just not when it smells like it’s something else entirely.
So in an attempt to save the situation I went and got some coke. Surely coke can make _anything_ drinkable.
+ = 
I’m unsure what is worse. Something that tastes entirely different to what you expect, and something that tastes like rotten peaches.
Then to further compound the problem, I thought to myself. Well maybe it gets better if you drink more…
Half a bottle later and it still tastes terrible, I just care less. But I can feel warm and fuzzy on the inside knowing that I’ve saved others from this fate. Chris swears that it might taste reasonable with Sprite. But I’m uncertain whether the bottle will last long enough for me to purchase some.
Try it with orange juice, I have no idea why this would be a good idea though.
i gots me a bottle of absolut rasberry, which if you ask various people, should easily beat absolut peach in terms of “awesome flavour…ness”.
pfffffffffffftttttttttsssssssshhhhh….
2 years later it still sits in my bookshelf, half empty (not half full!)
