    Frisky Bison AKA Polish Kiss (Żubrówka Cocktail)

    I can't tell you how often people have come over to our house and asked us what the fuzzy green thing was in our liquor cabinet. It's Żubrówka - bison grass vodka, brought to us from a friend in Poland.

    We had it once before, mixed with apple juice. Apparently, in the US it's known as a Polish Kiss, but in the UK it's known as a Frisky Bison. I think the latter is a MUCH better name for a cocktail ;).

    Anyhow, you mix this vodka in a shaker filled with ice with unfiltered apple juice, to taste. We used some freshly juiced apples from the orchard. It was awesome.

    This vodka has such a unique flavor - if you can get your hands on it, definitely give it a try.
