The Formula 1 Crypto.com Miami Grand Prix 2022 is taking place May 6th-May 8th at the Miami International Autodrome. The big race will be held on Sunday, May 8th with practices and qualifying rounds taking place beforehand. This is the first time that Miami has hosted a Grand Prix race and the city is very excited for this event! There are parties and celebrations taking place throughout Miami. But what about the rest of us that can’t be there in person? Belvedere Vodka has created a special cocktail that fans can make at home while watching the big race!
Belvedere Vodka is a Polish rye vodka. It is made from a special heritage grain of Polish rye that is blended with purified water. The mixture is then quadruple distilled with fire by Master Rye Distillers. This creates a clean vodka with a smooth finish.
Belvedere Vodka has created a special cocktail in honor of the Grand Prix!
Brian Stewart, Belvedere Vodka’s U.S. National Brand Ambassador, created the Belvedere Raspberry Circuit. In a press email he noted, “I went with these ingredients specifically because the combination of raspberry and lime is such a bright flavor that makes for an easy-drinking cocktail. This drink was inspired by the spirit of F1, so you’ll notice the garnish is five fresh raspberries, as a nod to the races’ iconic five red lights.”
Here is the recipe that the company shared with Guilty Eats:
"Belvedere Raspberry CircuitIngredients:1.5 oz Belvedere.1 oz Lime juice.5 oz Simple.5 oz Raspberry pureeSoda waterMethod: Place all ingredients into a cocktail shaker except soda water and shake lightly with a small amount of ice. Strain into a wine glass over fresh ice and top with soda water. Garnish with 5 fresh Raspberries."
Belvedere Vodka is also committed to sustainability. In 2023 the company will have transitioned to 100% organic farming. By the end of this year, they will eliminate 100% of single-use plastic.
Besides the original Belvedere Vodka, the company also makes Single Estate Rye and Heritage 176. They often have a couple of limited edition vodkas as well. Their newest collection is a line of Organic Infusions that are available in select markets. The three flavors of Organic Infusions: Blackberry & Lemongrass with a Hint of Sage, Lemon & Basil with a Hint of Elderflower, and Pear & Ginger with a Drop of Linden Honey. All of these sound refreshing and delicious.
So Guilty Eaters, will you be watching the big race? Who else will be making the Belvedere Raspberry Circuit?
