05/03/08 Just in time for Spring entertaining, Smirnoff Vodka adds more flavor into its top-selling flavored vodka portfolio and introduces Passion Fruit and White Grape. These innovations feature award-winning Smirnoff No. 21 Vodka immersed with the sweet, yet tart and tropical flavor of the popular passion fruit and the crisp, sweet and smooth flavor of white grape.
"The culinary cocktails trend continues to grow, fueled by fresh ingredients and exotic flavors from around the world," said Jennifer Van Ness, Vice President, Smirnoff. "Passion fruit has a multi-dimensional flavor all its own and White Grape is sure to enhance any cocktail party by adding to celebratory champagne toasts or customizing a Cosmopolitan or simple martini."
