Types of Vodka

There are two categories of vodka: flavored and plain. The plain category can be further categorized by what carbohydrate was used to make the vodka such as corn, wheat, potatoes, etc. The flavored category consists of plain vodka that has been flavored or infused with natural or artificial flavors. Today, vodka companies like to brag about their water source, how many times their vodka has been distilled, or how many times it has been filtered.

2006

The Oprah Winfrey Show 

The Oprah show could make someone famous overnight. Any product mentioned skyrocketed in sales, and the same is true for cocktails. In 2006, Oprah Winfrey and Rachael Ray made Lemon Drop Martinis and Pomegranate Martinis. Lemon Drop shot and shooters had been around in the late 1980s and 1990s, but when the “Martini Bar” craze started (late 1990s–mid-2000s), it was common to see Lemon Drop Martinis, so bartenders could easily make it.

 

The Pomegranate Martini was a different story. Bars did not carry pomegranate-flavored anything (juice, flavored liquor, syrup, or liqueur). Of course, as you might imagine, everyone started asking bartenders for Pomegranate Martinis the very same day the show aired. This is when POM pomegranate juice began to appear in the grocery stores.
