What do you mix Vanilla vodka with?

When it comes to vanilla vodka, we like to think about how we would pair those flavors in the kitchen. Vanilla vodka often goes with dessert-like pairings like apples, coffee, cream and caramel. On the other hand, vanilla vodka also pairs unexpectedly well with spicy ingredients like hot sauce or jalapeños.

What is the best vanilla vodka?

We might be biased, but in our humble opinion it’s Absolut Vanilia. The smooth mouthfeel and sweet notes of Vanilla, Butterscotch, and Crême Brulée makes it great on its own, and perfect for mixed drinks. However, the real answer to this question actually comes down to personal preference. If you find a vanilla vodka you like, then that’s the one you should use.
