Sweden’s Absolut Vodka, in addition to being known for its award-winning, surprisingly inexpensive original vodka, is beloved for its iconic, memorable flavored vodkas. The newest is perfect for fans of spicy heat.
Absolut Tabasco
As the name suggests, Absolut Tabasco isn’t your average flavored vodka. Now available throughout the US, this spicy vodka is made with Absolut’s popular winter wheat vodka and pure spring water. It’s flavored with the same fermented, aged red pepper mash that’s used to make Tabasco Sauce.
According to the brand, the result is a balanced, flavorful vodka with no added sugar and a nice extra kick of spicy, peppery heat. It’s the perfect base for your favorite vodka-based cocktails, especially a firey, spiced Bloody Mary.
“ABSOLUT has never been afraid to mix things up or shy away from bold moves and flavor,” Caroline Begley, U.S. VP of Marketing for Absolut, says.
“This year we’re bringing the heat with the launch of ABSOLUT ® TABASCO™. We’re proud to partner with another icon and one of the world’s leading hot sauce brands to add a spicy kick to both classic and trending vodka cocktails.”
Kate Neuhaus, Director of Global Marketing Communications at McIlhenny Company added that Tabasco Sauce is excited to partner with the popular vodka brand.
“We share a rich heritage and a commitment to quality – and this new partnership is a testament to both. It’s the perfect match. Absolut Tabasco is the purest form of heat ever bottled for adventurous flavor lovers everywhere!”
