Winter Park Spirit of the Month

Winter Park, Colorado Booze of the Month

VanGogh Acai Blueberry Vodka.  This fantastic Dutch vodka is naturally infused with Blueberry and Acai fruit.  Acai is one of the new “superfruits” from the rainforest.  High in antioxidants and vitamins this fruit is great for you.  However, when mixed in 80 proof vodka,  it just tastes delicious.

Handmade in small batches by Master Distiller Tim Vos, Van Gogh Vodka is painstakingly crafted using only the finest fruit, grains, and purified water.  The grain alcohol goes through a multiple distillation process followed by an all-natural double infusion flavoring process.  This innovative,  six-week procedure, pioneered by the Royal Dirkzwager Distilleries, creates Van Gogh Vodka’s signature smooth taste.

For the at home mixoligist, VanGogh Acai Blueberry is available at Rocky Mountain Moonshine.  If you’re out on the town you can find this wonderful vodka at Albertos, Tabernash Tavern or at Fontenot’s where it is featured in the Alpenglow cocktail.  A phenomenal drink dreamt up by the Fontenot’s crew.

VanGogh Acai Blueberry mixes well with soda, 7-Up and tonic it is also delicious just on the rocks.

Monthly Recipe: Molten Chocolate Mousse Cake

The small staff of Winter Park Lodging by Owner gathered together in December for a fun Christmas/Winter Kick-off Party at owners Chris and Sarah Bradford’s home.  We all partook in the great food, wine and laughter for the holidays.

After the delicious meal prepared by Chris and the elephant gift exchange, we were treated with this delicious Molten Chocolate Mouse Cake by Sarah – and I warn you – it could be addictive it’s so good.  Hope you get a chance to try it out this winter!
