We just found the next great thing since sliced bread, the uber hip and uber cool liquor brand, Three Olives Vodka! Just one quick tour of their website, www.threeolives.com, will prove we aren’t lying. It might be called ‘Three Olives’ because of the classic dirty martini, but the martinis you can make with this liquor are anything but ordinary. Their flavors alone range from ‘bubble gum’ to ‘triple shot espresso.’ We can’t imagine anything more perfect for a themed fiesta! The newest and greatest vodka is actually purple in color and grape in flavor! How divine!

Of course the Brits across the pond came up with this company, and we thank them endlessly. Their encouragement to enjoy the fun and creative side of cocktails continues with a downloadable PDF file, aptly named, “The Bartender’s Little Black Book,” which is chalked full with more than 70 Three Olives recipes.
