SKYY Vodka

America’s first quadruple distilled, triple-filtered premium vodka, SKYY boasts an unbeatable smoothness with a medium body and dry, creamy mouthfeel that’s perfect for sipping or mixing. The all-American vodka is made from heartland grains filtered through California limestone. It offers notes of coriander and anise with a subtle peppery finish.

SKYY Vodka has been around since 1992, during which time the brand set the distillation and filtration standards. Its history is simple enough: The founder wanted a better-tasting martini, which naturally meant starting with a better vodka. Thanks to SKYY’s process, the brand has eliminated most of the vodka’s impurities for an award-winning flavor that’s remained unchanged for more than 20 years.

Since SKYY was born out of the need to craft the perfect martini, we recommend you start there. Shake four ounces of SKYY vodka in a metal shaker with lots of ice until it is chilled, then pour into a martini glass and garnish with olives. Drink it right away for the best experience, and add a couple teaspoons of olive juice for a dirty version.

You may also consider Earl of Harlem, which consists of SKYY, Earl Grey tea, coriander syrup and lemon juice. No matter what your event demands, SKYY steps up to the plate to deliver memorable cocktails everyone will love.
