The silly Festive Season is nearing which means novelty drink season is upon us. It’s the season that asks, why just crack open a simple beer when you can make elaborate decorative shots? Why not soak gummy bears in grain alcohol until they are bloated and boozy? Why not stick a bottle of Gin into a watermelon?
Wait, what, no mention of Vodka? Do not despair, novelty drink lovers! I have taken the way-back machine to my misspent youth and brought every vodka trick in the book back with us. This novelty drink season, you will have success. You will have vodka G&T.

Our signature G&T features the newly launched Absolut Grapefruit, a refreshing new flavour to its citrus range. The new edition has a truly refreshing taste and is naturally fruity with a distinct note of pink grapefruit, no added sugar and a well-balanced natural sweetness.
Absolut Grapefruit is the latest in a long line of citrus flavours, coming in a frosted bottle and is part of Absolut’s long-standing heritage of creating high-quality products with natural flavours and no added sugars.
And the best way to enjoy it is as a refreshing Grapefruit and Tonic – served over ice, with a slice of real grapefruit and tonic, creating a fun and fruity twist on the classic. Say hello to the new G&T – Grapefruit and Tonic.
And remember, always novelty-drink responsibly.
