Okay, so, I decided to try out this Smirnoff Ice Pink Lemonade thing. I’d seen it around, and I was curious. I mean, pink lemonade? As a malt beverage? It sounded interesting, so I grabbed a six-pack of those 11.2 fl oz glass bottles.
First thing I did was chill them in the fridge. I think these kinds of drinks are always better cold, you know? When they were nice and cold, I cracked one open.
Tasting Notes
- First Impression: It’s definitely got that lemonade vibe. You know, that tart, tangy kind of flavor. But it’s not too overpowering.
- The Sweetness Factor: They say there’s some raspberry in there, which probably explains the sweetness. It’s not candy-sweet, which is good. More like a subtle sweetness that balances out the tartness.
- The Alcohol Part: It’s got a 4.5% alcohol content. Pretty standard for a malt beverage. You can taste a bit of a kick, but it’s not strong at all.
- Overall Taste: I’d say it’s pretty refreshing. Kind of like a fizzy, slightly boozy lemonade. It’s not something I’d drink every day, but it’s a fun change of pace.
So, I drank a couple of them while I was grilling out in the backyard. It was a nice, sunny day, and these drinks were easy to sip on. They didn’t fill me up too much, which was good because I wanted to enjoy the food, too.
I think these Smirnoff Ice Pink Lemonades are a good option for when you want something a little different. They’re not too strong, they’re not too sweet, and they’ve got a unique flavor. I could see myself buying these again for a party or something. I finished the whole six-pack over a couple of weekends. I wouldn’t say they’re my absolute favorite drink ever, but they were definitely enjoyable.
