M&C (Monsters and Critics) featured a great article on Inexpensive Holiday Cocktails, to ensure a very merry and affordable festive season. And no surprise to us, VnC Cocktails came out on top! This is what they had to say…
“..An array of premixed drinks offered by VnC Cocktails. If you are a tad lazy or just not sure of your mixology skills, VnC Cocktails are low calorie cocktails offered in six ready made flavors – all less than 150 calories per serving.
VnC is an all-natural product made with 100% fruit juice. Lightweight, pre-mixed and ready-to-serve, VnC Cocktails are easy to pour and store at any occasion from Thanksgiving to New Year’s Eve.
VnC sent Monsters and Critics their pomegranate cosmopolitan to try, and we added a special holiday touvch to embellish the martini glass.
VnC was created by a New Zealander who consulted some of the world’s top mixologists for exciting recipes and flavor combinations. VnC Strawberry Daiquiri uses Camarosa Strawberries grown in New Zealand, famous far and wide for their size, at least six or seven – in every bottle. The VnC Margarita cocktail combines the finest Mexican tequila with the tartness of lime juice, balanced with a touch of orange triple sec liqueur. Like all authentic tequilas, their Blanco Tequila is sourced from the Jalisco region of Mexico; their limes come from the West Indies.
Pomegranates are full of antioxidants. Not that it really matters after your second or third pomegranate cosmopolitan. Pomegranate is one of the world’s super fruits. VnC mixed pomegranate, cranberry, vodka and triple sec liqueur for a winning combination.
The only ingredients in VnC Cocktails are premium vodka and 100% natural fruit juices, sourced from the best suppliers around the world. No artificial preservatives, additives or colorings.”
