The popular spirit vodka in Russia was once called the "God of the Russians", so how do Russians generally treat this "God"?
The most common way for Russians to drink vodka is to drink it neat. Pour the vodka directly into the glass and drink it in one gulp. Vodka can also be drunk neat, and sometimes the glass and the wine are even refrigerated to prevent the wine from warming up too quickly after being poured into the glass.
In addition to drinking it neat, a way of drinking that Russians are accustomed to, vodka is also commonly used to make a variety of cocktails.
①Bloody Mary
Put an appropriate amount of ice cubes in a large tumbler, pour in vodka, add tomato juice, stir with the vodka, add sliced lemon and celery, and a "Bloody Mary" is freshly baked. You can also add salt, pepper, and red pepper to season according to your personal preference.
②Black Russia
Put ice cubes into the ice drinking glass as a base, pour in vodka, add an appropriate amount of Kahlua coffee liqueur, stir gently to mix, and a cup of "Black Russian" is ready. If whipped cream is added to the "Black Russian" it becomes a "White Russian". The ratio of vodka and Kahlua coffee liqueur in "Black Russian" can be adjusted according to your own preferences. The more liqueur, the stronger the sweetness.
③Screwdriver
Put an appropriate amount of ice cubes in a large flat-bottomed glass, pour in vodka, add orange juice, stir the orange juice and vodka to mix, decorate the rim of the glass with sliced orange, and the "screwdriver" is complete. A dash of Galliano liqueur can also be added to the "Screwdriver" to create a "Harvey's Bump."
④Salty Dog Cocktail
Soak the rim of a flat-bottomed glass with lemon juice and then cover it with salt to make a "snow sugar cup". Add an appropriate amount of ice cubes to make the base. Avoid the salt on the rim of the cup when placing it. Pour in vodka, add grapefruit juice, and gently mix. Stir to combine and the "salty dog cocktail" is made.
⑤Donkey of Moscow
Put ice cubes in a copper wine glass as a base, pour in vodka, and add ginger juice as a refreshing drink. Spicy flavors are more suitable for ginger juice refreshing drinks. If you only have sweet ginger juice drinks, you can add a little ginger and sliced lime. Squeeze the juice into the wine, stir gently to mix, put the squeezed lime into the cup for decoration, and you have a cup of "Donkey of Moscow".
