We finished a bottle last night before we went out. I tried to experiment with different mixers, OJ, sprite, red bull, lemon juice. All were pretty good.

Yeah its absolutely amazing with lemonade... some friends of mine drink it with a dash of water on ice and its still insanely smooth. Good stuff.

I got some this weekend as well....mixed with just water and was not wow'd by it, but I definitely intend on experimenting because it wasn't "sweet tea" enough for me....

I am trying to get a feel for this stuff. Had 3 large sweet tea drinks last night with a splash of water and lemon. You CANNOT taste the alcohol. And it smells like sweet tea. It says 35% alc by volume. Regular Vodka is about 40%.

I thought it tasted sweet enough by itself, but a shot of sugar would definately make it more "southern" style.

yeah my first sip of whatever I mixed could have blown up a room if someone would have lit a cigarette. I had it in Auburn and it tasted PERFECT....definitely will have to experiment.

Red Diamond Sweet Tea or that Simply Lemonade/Limeade stuff are the best for mixing.

Well, the one I'm referring to is the Sweet Tea vodka. They also produce a muscadine wine flavor as well.

Hudson--try to find someone that Republic distributes to....they are the ones with FireFly in Louisiana. Just see if they can get it in time for the weekend.

Again, Republic is the distributor.....so which ever liquor stores buys from Republic "should" have it and if they don't you could probably ask them to order some. It has been flying off of shelves around BR.
