HELP!! why is my absolut vodka cocktail always taste like fark?

it always taste way TOOOooooooo strong compare to the one i always had in pubs or clubs.





i usually make my own screwdriver, sometimes with fresh oranges with sugar or traffic-jam with my own strawberry jam. even my own vodka dry taste too strong and like fark.





WHY!?!?!?!?!|||How did you get your cocktail to taste like a news satire web page? That sound interesting. Or does it taste like a South American Rebel Military group? I'm confused now.





You are mixing to much alcohol in. Up the ratio of mixer and lower the ratio of alcohol. Say something like this; 2 parts OJ to 1 part vodka.





Edit:


If you aren't over doing the Vodka try using store bought OJ or mixers.|||you're pouring in too much. duh.|||The bars will give you exactly one ounce in your drink. I suspect you are putting in way more than that. Ease up on the vodka.|||for a shorty:





Fill glass to top with ice. Put in ONE SHOT of VODKA. Fill rest of glass with cranberry or juice or whatever you like to drink it with.





For a tall glass, double it up.|||Too much vodka. most of the time it is 1 oz , sometimes 1 1/2. get yourself a measuring cup for drink.|||Put some water or some club soda|||You might need to experiment with the amount of vodka you like in your drink. Try one oz first then add a little as you go until its just right. Also, Try changing vodka brands. Absolut is a cheap brand and you could try a more expensive, smoother vodka. That might help.|||too much vodka sweety.


make sure you can handle it.


ease up on the drinking, ok?

Absolut vodka, perth WA?

anyone know if absolut vodka is on special anywhere this week in perth, western australia?|||Absolut is the best of the lower priced vodkas, but if you have the money to spend, I'd suggest Krolewska (I doubt if I spelled it correctly). It's real Polish potato vodka (the bottle has a cathedral window on it) -- really smooth!

Whats the best absolut vodka flavor?

tried raspberry, didnt like it





any delicious recommendations? :) thanks|||I don't blame you for not liking it--I've never had a good raspberry vodka. It just doesn't go well. I would say don't go back to Smirnoff, either, its inferior and kinda nasty and their flavored vodkas tend to make ya ill.





I consider myself an Absolut fanatic, so here's my take:





The Pear flavor is very good, try it with Sprite.


The Apeach is good, I like it with OJ and peach schnapps.


The New Orleans mango/pepper flavor is good with v8, especially lemon.


The "classic" Absolut flavors, Citron and Mandarin, are also great picks for Sprite or Coke.|||the absolut "APear" and "APeach" are very tasty when served correctly. The apear flavor goes fantastically with ice and sprite, and the apeach goes well shaken with some pineapple and orange juice.





unfortunately, the raspberi vodka that they put out doesnt have quite the authentic rasberry flavor that alot of other vodkas offer. if you are going to go with berry flavor vodka, i would stick with stolichnaya bluberi or raspberi, or even hangar 1's rasberry infused vodka.|||I also tried raspberry, and I'm hoping all of the other flavours are better, because it was disgusting. I would have rather drank straight vodka. Go for a different brand like Smirnoff, the vanilla is really good.|||my pick would be currant. . . i like mixing this with sprite its really nice, it has this berry flavor. . . try it. . .|||just plain so you can mix it better|||Absolut Limon|||apeach, or kurrant|||i liked the blue kind i think ?





the rasberry was nasty|||Blue by far|||I just like lemon..............|||the blue one|||try Grey Goose or Stoli

French song in Absolut Vodka ad?

there's an ad out for absolut vodka where halfway through the ad, rioters start pillowfighting and this french music plays. it's a male singer, and the only word i think i'm picking up is "boom" (which is sung over and over again).





it keeps getting stuck in my head, and i'd love to know what it is.





thanks, everybody!


|||The song is called "Boum" by Charles Trenet. I think it is not necessarily his version in the commercial. But that is the song.|||Boom" by E. Ray Goetz and Charles Trenet

What's the song in the NEW Absolut vodka commercial? The one with..scientists or something, I think?

There's no singing...kind of sounds like a song that was also in the Marie Antoinette movie...like an 80s song?





Anyone know?|||I was wondering that too, so I went through the Marie Antoinette soundtrack and it's "Ceremony" by New Order. Good song :)|||According to Absolut, the song in the commercial is actually a "reinterpretation" of New Order's Ceremony by Brooklyn band Fall on Your Sword. This version is currently not commercially available.

|||Is this the ad? Sorry, I don't know the name of the song, but other people were asking, so maybe just keep checking the thread on youtube..

Edited to ad what the link said about the song:





SONG INFO: It was an original score done by a commercial music house specifically for this spot, so is not available for purchase or download. New ad for Absolut Vodka - In an Absolut World

Is there a different taste in the Rock n' Roll edition of Absolut Vodka?

Is it just the leather cover or a different taste? is the bottle larger than usual or something?


any difference, more than the leather thing..?|||I believe it is just for looks. I work in a bar and I think they are just doing it for a one time only thing. It is just the regular Absolut Vodka.

Americas map used in absolut vodka ad. Semiotic Analysis?

Mexico|||What is the question?
