Square One Cucumber Vodka Cocktail

"Aromatherapy"

Cool as a Cucumber describes this awesome Organic Vodka. The folks at Square One Spirits have out done themselves by distilling fresh organic cucumbers directly into their organic vodka. The result is a super cool and refreshing vodka that is great in cocktails. One of our favorite cocktails to use this vodka in is Aromatherapy. This cocktail combines the cooling cucumber flavors with aromatics and bitters to bring your taste buds on a spa day they won't soon forget. 

Chad the Tie Guy's Drink of the Week: This cocktail is amazing for the simple fact that it really uses some cool ingredients that most people would not normally think of putting together. The aromatic rose water and orange bitters give this drink such wonderful aromas that make you want to sit and smell it all day. I think cocktails like this highlight the healthy side of imbibing that can be enjoyed after a lovely yoga session without any regrets. Enjoy!
