Tried a tasty vodka mixed with Red Bull. Tried it with the Cherry Vodka. Not tried with the Loopy Vodka but certain will do in the near future!
A web log started by two Wine Enthusiasts, synonym for "Winos". Its intent is to log our thoughts and opinions about inexpensive wines available at local grocery and beverage stores. Our hope is to prevent other "Winos" from making the same mistakes we made with our wine purchases.
