For summer, products like Grey Goose L'Orange offer a refreshing and citrusy flavor.
A one litter volume of this vodka is said to contain "the natural essence of one kilogram of fresh oranges." Harnessing this powerful taste, the company proposes a set of cocktails that will inspire consumers to become their own bartenders. There is an abundance of different recipes that harness Grey Goose L'Orange and each is identified by using "local [and] seasonal ingredients" that can be found at any Farmer's Market.
The proposed cocktails include 'Life in Venice' which boasts "soft, mellow peach, [...] [and] spice from pink peppercorns," as well as the 'Leafy Green' which is ideal for brunch thanks to the fresh celery and elderflower.
