Dirty Sexy Martini

On becoming the Belvedere Brand Ambassador for the Central Region, I decided to create my own signature cocktails for the Belvedere Vodka range. The newest additions to the range are Belvedere Intense; a 50% abv version, Belvedere IX; spiced with 9 ‘botanical’-esque flavourings and the newest maceration of Belvedere Black Raspberry. This newest maceration is the most exciting for most people as the original Maceration Range of Cytrus and Pomarancza were very well received. Personally, I am more excited about the IX variant as I see it as a 21st century Gorska style of Vodka.
You may also notice the name change from Cytrus and Pomarancza respectfully to Citrus and Orange, this decision was made on the American market as they struggle to pronounce both Cytrus and Pomarancza but would have even more problems with Czarna Malina, the Polish words for Black and Raspberry, as the Maceration is a combination of Podlaise Raspberries and French Blackcurrants and not Ribus Nigrum, also known as Black Raspberry, now famous for their use in Chambord Liqueur de Royale.

And so… I present my own signature cocktails for the Belvedere range, I will be making these cocktails on my tour of the central region, hopefully I will see you there…
