On Thursday, May 13th, Belvedere Vodka celebrated its newest maceration, Pink Grapefruit, and unveiled the limited edition Matthew Williamson for Belvedere Pink Grapefruit kaftan.

Matthew Williamson and Leigh Lezark hosted the event, with celebrity and VIP guests including Ashley Olsen, Chelsea Handler, Kelly Osbourne Estelle and Kelly Choi.

Attendees enjoyed Pink Grapefruit cocktails and tunes spun by Leigh Lezark and The MisShapes. Lezark was modeling the kaftan, available exclusively at Matthew Williamson boutiques and matthewwilliamson.com.

Guests lucky enough to attend the party received a bottle of Belvedere Pink Grapefruit Vodka.

The Belvedere Pink Grapefruit Pop-Up in the Meatpacking District was the place to be for 5 nights of exclusive parties, ending tonight, May 16th. After two nights in a row of indulging in Belvedere Pink Grapefruit cocktails, I had to call it quits and give my liver a rest from all this 'maceration'.

Belvedere Pink Grapefruit Vodka Launch Tasting

What is Maceration?



Pink Grapefruit Ramos Fizz

On Wednesday, May 12th, I attended the Belvedere Pink Grapefruit Vodka launch tasting, presented by Master Distiller, Claire Smith. For 5 days the pop-up space was home to a series of exclusive parties and promotional events at 414 West 14th Street, opposite the Matthew Williamson Store.

The launch also celebrates the partnership with designer Matthew Williamson. Williamson has designed a limited-edition print inspired by Pink Grapefruit. The vibrant kaftan print captures the spirit of summer and femininity.

Even though the tasting centered around Pink Grapefruit, other flavored Belvedere vodkas include Citrus, Orange and Black Raspberry. My favorite drink of the night was the Pink Grapefruit Ramos Fizz, which included Belvedere Pink Grapefruit Vodka, passion fruit syrup and Campari shaken with egg whites.
