The other night my bar was rented out for a private party, and the company brought in a bunch of donated liquor they asked us to use. One of the products was a flavor of Three Olives brand vodka called “Loopy.” It tastes exactly like fruit loops.
A year ago I wrote a piece about Jim Beam’s Pucker vodkas marketed for kids, but I think this one takes the cake. Look at the font on the top of the bottle! If that doesn’t scream out “toy store and Saturday morning cartoons” then I don’t know what does.
And speaking of “cake,” that’s the name of another variety available from Three Olives, which has become the Baskin Robbins of vodka companies by offering 22 flavors in all (although none of them actually taste like olives).
