> [@Munch](#): > > Yeah - Absolut Peppar usually just used for Bloody Marys, but could work here if you want to give it a shot. When I moved, I had a stock-the-bar party. Someone left me a bottle of [Absolut New Orleans](http://cocktails.about.com/od/vodkadrinkrecipes/gr/absolut_nworlns.htm). It’s the best tasting infused vodka I’ve ever had. It’s mango and black pepper. It’s also completely unavailable, since it was limited edition. I wish I still had some… You ought to try making some. One year I made infused vodka for Christmas presents, and my red hot pepper vodka was a big hit. Make some pepper vodka, make some mango vodka, mix the two, or try making the mixture infusion. That does sound tasty - I’ll have to try it. You’ll want to add the peppers to the mango on about the fifth day - [see](http://www.epicurean.com/articles/vodka-infusions.html) [here.](http://cocktails.about.com/od/spirits/ht/infusions.html) ---

We make a drink in the summer by opening a Lipton Diet Green Tea with Citrus, drinking a few glugs, then filling the bottle with vodka. Looks like iced tea. We call it “A Cry For Help”. ---
