Devotion Vodka and Exhibitionism - The Rolling Stones


On Friday, January 6th, I attended a Devotion Vodka tasting at Sugar Factory at 835 Washington Street, followed by a visit to Exhibitionism - The Rolling Stones exhibit. The Sugar Factory was the perfect setting for Devotion Vodka to showcase signature cocktails in Sugar Factory's large goblets, garnished with lollipops and candy necklaces. In case you haven't experienced Devotion Vodka yet, it's the world's first gluten free and sugar free Vodka. It amazes me that my face doesn't turn red and I do not wake up with a hangover when I drink Devotion Vodka!

The signature cocktails during the vodka tasting included Sugar & Stones (Blue Cotton Monin, Coconut Monin, Splash Lemon Spritzer, and Devotion Vodka), Sunshine Tea (Devotion Tiki Tea, Limoncello and Devotion Citrus), and Lollipop Passion (Devotion Citrus, Coconut Rum, and Boulaine Melon).

Exhibitionism - The Rolling Stones at Industria at 775 Washington St. is an incredibly cool exhibit, with a style & fashion gallery that spans from the 1960s to the present, with clothing from Alexander McQueen, Prada, Dior, Gucci, L'Wren Scott, Jean Paul Gaultier and more. There is also a vintage guitar gallery, a reconstruction of 'Edith Grove,' their first shared flat in London, original artworks from Andy Warhol, David Bailey, John Pasche and more, interactive displays, a backstage recreation, and a 3D concert finale. Exhibitionism -The Rolling Stones ends on March 12th so see it while you still can!

Thank you Devotion Vodka for an awesome night of cocktails and The Rolling Stones!

Devotion Vodka Party at Son Cubano


My recap of October events continues, with a Devotion Vodka party at Son Cubano in West New York, NJ.  The party was filled with guests, Cuban food, and a sampling of Devotion Vodka with 10's, 20's, 30's, 40's and 50's-themed signature cocktails to celebrate the 50th birthday of Founder/CEO of Devotion Vodka. 

It's not everyday you stumble upon a vodka that's different from all the rest. What makes Devotion Vodka unique? 
  • It's propriety brand that is the first and only sugar-free and gluten-free Vodka family on the market. 
  • Distilled from 100% high grade USA Corn.
  • 100% Non GMO
  • The world's smoothest six times distilled, multi-filtered, 80 Proof Vodka. (All flavors 80 proof).
  • Uses de-ionized water to ensure the industry's highest quality water source.
  • partnered with Allen Flavors (makers of Arizona Iced Tea) to create FDA & FEMA GRAS approved allergen-free flavors.

What amazed me the most is that after several drinks, my face did not turn red or start to feel warm. I usually get the Asian glow after a half a glass, and I didn't feel that happening at all. I also didn't feel hungover the next morning or get any headaches! 

Devotion Vodka's flavors include Tiki Tea, Wild Cherry. Blood Orange, Black & Blue, Cosmo, and Coconut. I'm really excited about Tiki Tea, since I'm a tea drinker. It didn't even taste like it had vodka in it. My favorite of the signature cocktails was definitely the 10's: Little Andy - Devotion Coconut, pineapple juice, and a splash of club soda.
