A frisky bison

I was told before I went to Krakow to try a frisky bison, a vodka cocktail with apple juice.

?ubrówka is known as Bison Grass Vodka, a dry, herb-flavored vodka that is distilled from rye and bottled at 40% alcohol by volume. Its flavour is unique and is described as having woodruff, vanilla, coconut, and almond notes.

The name ?ubrówka comes from ?ubr, the Polish and Belarusian (as well as Ukrainian and Russian) word for the wisent (European bison), which is particularly fond of eating bison grass.

I didn't come back with any of this particular vodka but did come back with two bottles of lemon and blackcurrant Luksusowa. A Polish brand of vodka distilled from potatoes which makes it unusual in the contemporary vodka market.

Bottoms up!
