If you like your cocktails with a conscience, then it’s time to explore Belevdere vodka’s new seasonal Super Cocktail Range – each tailored to the time of year. To celebrate the natural world, Belvedere has come up with eight easy cocktails championing locally sourced, seasonal ingredients. Picked at the peak of ripeness and fresher without food miles, these ingredients are better for the planet, while showcasing the vodka’s trademark taste. For autumn, think carrot’s earthy sweetness, while a wintry serve resounds with deep beetroot tastes. There are green, grassy notes of kale and avocado for spring and fragrant melon for summer. The only question is, can you wait four seasons to try them all?
