Food / What is your favorite Polish Vodka? [653]

Hi, I would like to find out how to make my own vodka

Well, you can but spiritus add 1/2 parts water, add some honey and a clove let it sit for a few months and you'll have your own honey vodka :) or you can soak it in with other fruit and make sth different.

Very recently I started to love Zoladkowka vodka. It's fabolous, good for stomach and so on.. by the way, how do you guys dring Zobrowke? with apple or cherry juice? thx

żołądkowa "bitter stomach" :) is awesome. Have you tried the other flavors? I like the original but I think theres mint and sth else. I dring Zubrowka shots. I don't really like it with apple but Zuberek is ok to add. its a sprt of apple flavor and cinnamon around the shot edge.

Excellent! Żubrówka is my favorite, but there aren't too many types of Polish vodkas to chose from in US stores.

There are many PL vodkas in the US...where I am anyway :)
Chopin, Belevedere, Wybrowka, Alchemy, Harnas, Jazz (comes in the shape of a trumpet), Sniper..lol looks like an AK :), sobieski..more

Where in the US are you?

I don't know how true that is for the zubrowka..it's just a wiki. I'm not sure if neutralizing the grass would even take the flavor out. I'll tell you what. I have a bottle that I just brought back from PL and I'll go to the liquor store and buy one here to see if there's a difference. Keep in mind that there are a couple different bottles of zubrowka.

I will let you know soon...not too sure when it'll be opened. Probably this weekend.

The US imported Żubrówka wasn't bad, but was expensive and really not the same (different brand of Bison Vodka too).

Was in a green bottle? I've heard the same about that one. I get the same as they have in PL from a store in NJ.

I just brought back some Apsinthion :)

Haven't had the chance to open it yet though. Waiting for the right night.

I'm sure you have plenty of liquor stores with PL vodka. Look for Wyborowa. Chopin is also good, but pricy.

What's the difference, FISZ, between this and the regular one, except the cool look?

It's made in smaller batches...kinda like a single barrel whisky, it's just better.

here's some info: polandforall.com/polish-wyborowa-vodka.html

If you had it with apple juice you probably wouldn't know the difference.

That's a big no no. I don't like it with apple. maybe just a little Zuberek, but that's all. Maybe your taste buds are better :) I couldn't tell the difference. Even if they did neutralize the grass..I think that the flavors from the grass would still remain. Who really knows....Coke and RC tastes the same to me :)

avoid Budweiser, Fosters and Carling.

Agree. I also don't like Carlsberg too much either. I'll look into the Caffreys. Maybe they export to the US.
Thx Huegel

USA, Canada / Pulaski Day (celebrated in the US only) [54]

Are you going to the parade Sledz?

In NY we celebrate Pulaski memorial day. This is held every year on October 11 by Presidential Proclamation, to commemorate his death at the Siege of Savannah on October 11, 1779
