Turning Tasty with Recipes

Hello folks, us again.

I've heard many of you are looking for recipes, no? Your wish has been granted!

sfvodka.com has added a recipes page. Right Here SF vodka Recipes Page and I'll also add a few sneak peeks below.

Over time we will be doing video blogs to show HOW to create some of the cocktails we have up, and will continuously be adding.

Take a peek, try a few, and let us know what you think! Comments are welcome, as are suggestions, opinions, and the like. We're all friends here.

Here are a few sneak peeks and favorites:


Ocean Breeze
1 ½ oz SF Ocean Beach vodka
3 mint leaves
2 slices of cucumber
2 1/2 oz club soda
Muddle mint leaves and vodka, add ice and club soda, drop in cucumber slices. Serve in large martini glass.

Low Tide
1 frozen strawberry, 1 frozen peach slice, chopped
1.5 oz vodka
1.5 oz ginger peach tea simple syrup
2 drops (spear)mint extract
Shake vodka, simple syrup, and mint extract in shaker with ice and strain into chilled martini glass. Add chopped fruit and enjoy
Ginger peach simple syrup: heat 2 cups water with 2 cups sugar on medium low heat until dissolved. Add 4 or 5 bags of ginger peach tea and simmer for ~15 minutes. Let cool, and use or store.

Enjoy!!

Welcome to SFvodka's Blog

Hello All!

We created this blog to bring you closer to the SFvodka family, and what life is like behind the scenes. Of course, when a family starts a business together there is always an interesting story line that unfolds complete with exciting adventures, lots of learning, and ridiculous mishaps that combine to create the life behind the products we produce for you, our extended family.

Some things to look forward to in the near future! (Yay)

We anticipate starting a video collection that will give you answers to your most asked questions, and interviews with the Smith family members. We will include recipes and demonstrations, and hopefully some interviews with our industry professional buddies. 

Also! There will be photos of the distillery and some history sections for all you history buffs out there including history of: The Navy Brig currently being used as our Distillery, Treasure Island, and San Francisco at large.

We will be posting links to other blogs with interesting things to learn about, links to events, and my personal favorite section - the stories of life from events to upcoming ones, and everything in between.

We want this to be as interactive as possible and encourage you to share your thoughts, questions, and comments. This includes my favorite part of all! Giving you what YOU want. Please feel free to share what you'd like to heard about, what we should include, and what you'd like to see from us. This is your Vodka. Give it to us straight.
