It is good? I’m debating getting it for a party tomorrow and I’m curious if anyone has any reviews of it. ---

I haven’t had the Smirnoff, but I have the original whipped vodka: Pinnacle. It’s delicious. You can drink it straight, which makes it pretty dangerous. I’d say try the Pinnacle line- they have a TON of flavors. Some of the fun ones include Gummy, Orange Whipped, and Cotton Candy. ---

I had the whipped cream version. It tastes exactly like advertised. If you don’t want to taste vodka, and like a sweet, creamy flavor, this should be a hit for you. If the friends at your party like sweet drinks, they should like it. If they’re more of a dry martini/single malt Scotch crowd, they probably won’t. ---

> [@Jenaroph](#): > > How does this make it different from unflavored vodka? 🙂 Ha. Well, that’s true enough. I suppose for the girlie drink lovers in the house (me!), the smooth whipped cream taste makes straight vodka goddamned dangerous. It really does taste exactly like whipped cream. The cotton candy tastes EXACTLY like cotton candy. And the snozzberry tastes EXACTLY like snozzberries. 😛 ---

> [@Sir\_T-Cups](#): > > I’m in college so…yeah… Then I suggest the entire Pinnacle range. Hell, their website has a metric ton of frufru drink recipes [here.](http://www.pinnaclevodka.com/recipes) I regularly see it for $9 a bottle. ---

That shit will get you hammered without you even realizing it, since it doesn’t have that alcoholic taste to give you feedback. ---

The Pinnacle whipped cream with orange juice tastes remarkably like a creamsicle. Yum! ---

Ok that pretty much settles it. I greatly assumed I was going to anyway but this pretty much settles it edit: wow I really just said that didn’t I? ---

Already hitting the whipped vodka, I see. ---

That shit will get you hammered without you even realizing it, since it doesn’t have that alcoholic taste to give you feedback. I don’t believe this. I’ve heard “X tastes EXACTLY like Y” and “You don’t even notice the alcohol” about so many liquors and cocktails, but the only time I have ever found that to be true about alcoholic drinks are light macrobrews like Miller or Coors. ---

Dude/tte, if someone is anxious/concerned about drinking but wants to party and wants a bit of an escape clause afterwards for how they ended up drinking so much, you can bet they can gloss over the specifics and decide “it tastes just like candy!” We all believe what we want to believe, yes? ---

YMMV, but I find them to be vile, cloying and generally undrinkable. ---

I’ve heard “X tastes EXACTLY like Y” and “You don’t even notice the alcohol” about so many liquors and cocktails, but the only time I have ever found that to be true about alcoholic drinks are light macrobrews like Miller or Coors. As always, YMMV. I don’t notice the alcohol in a lot of really sweetened drinks but, then again, I’m someone who can down vodka like it’s water. The only time I had that Smirnoff (since I don’t like sweet drinks) was at my brother’s wedding, and all the bridesmaids were like “this stuff is great! you can’t even tell it’s alcohol.” So, like I said, YMMv.
