What is undeniable, however, is the sweet scent and delicate flavor of vanilla that mellows out the burn of straight vodka. Phrases like “essence of vanilla” and “natural flavorings” are common and hard to define. The flavoring is equally vague in most cases. Not all brands publicly share how their vodka is made, though if you have any food allergies or sensitivities you can usually contact the company for more information. The base may be potato, corn, grains, or even fruit. Traditional vodka must be at least 40% ABV.īecause plain vodka is made using a variety of different grains, depending on the manufacturer, so is vanilla vodka. Flavored vodka, including vanilla vodka, must be a minimum of 30% alcohol by volume (ABV).

There’s a vanilla vodka on our list for everyone, no matter what your priorities are. We’ve curated a list of the 7 best vanilla vodkas that can be purchased online, based on each of the previously listed criteria. The best vanilla vodka has a hint of mellow, earthy sweetness while still retaining the classic smooth, subtle vodka flavor. What is the best vanilla vodka? Choosing a vanilla vodka requires consideration of the the base vodka quality, the strength and purity of the vodka flavor, and the price for the value. Not only is it sweeter and smoother overall, but it also adds a depth of flavor to martinis, blended cocktails, spritzers, and more. There are quite a few cocktails you can make with this flavour vodka, such as a Cookie Monster, Absolut Monster, Absolut Vanilia Passion and a lot more.Vodka is one of the most popular spirits used for mixing cocktails around the world and the addition of the flavor vanilla increases its appeal in many different ways. ![]() The Stoli and Smirnoff come in 2nd and 3rd respectively.Īs mentioned, my drink, is the simple but lovely Absolut Vanilia vodka with Coke. ![]() It is that much better than the rest, and at less than half the price of the premium Grey Goose brand too. ![]() The scent is alluring, and the taste is very pleasant and sweet, but strong enough to know you’re still drinking a vodka and not a non-alcoholic drink. The price seems to vary around £15-20, and it’s worth the money. Absolut is known for making high quality vodkas, and this is yet another. It was the first one I had, and I have to say, it is the best. You should be able to pick up a bottle for under £20.Ībsolut Vanilla “Vanilia” vodka is most well known and loved vanilla flavoured vodka out there. It’s probably the most sweetest “vanilla tasting” of the four, and there’s no unpleasant aftertaste. A few bars I go to used this as their standard vanilla vodka, and I have to say it’s really nice. I have had Stil Vanil quite a few times, but never bought a bottle. You can pick this up for around £18, so it’s a good price for a well known brand. I did find some, tried it, and yes, it’s pretty nice. Probably the most known brand name for plain vodka, Smirnoff do a vanilla but it can be hard to find. It has quite a nice taste to it, but is less sweet and “candy like” than the rest, and the taste of vodka does come through quite a bit. Having said that, it’s still the most expensive, around 3x more than the Absolut Vanilia. I got a bottle for around £45, however this was a 1L bottle rather than the standard 70cl. With the Grey Goose label, you know this is going to be a premium price. A standard 70cl bottle will set you back around £26, and it is a good vodka, but not necessarily better than the rest. If you’re looking to create a wow factor with friends or at a party, this is possibly the one to go for. The taste is very smooth, and it is a really nice vodka. Ciroc is famous for it’s premium vodka, and this one is no different. One of the newest vanilla vodkas on the market is Ciroc French Vanilla, and it’s one which I got back in 2017. I am actually surprised that when I go out most bars have the vanilla flavour, and over the years I’ve bought or drank a few different brands of the stuff, but the question is, which is the best?Īs with all vodkas they are around 37-40% in alcohol, but the price differs quite a bit depending on what brand you go for. I usually keep it simple, with just a vanilla vodka and Coke, and it is really good. A good few years ago I tried vanilla vodka, and since then I love it! I never used to be much of a vodka flavour drinker, apart from when you buy racks of shots from places like Revolution which was always fun. ![]()
