Nothing says celebration like a cake. As we kick off Sauce Magazine’s 10-year anniversary this weekend, you can bet that we’ll be having our cake – and drinking it too, thanks to Pearl vodka’s newest product.
The makers of Pearl Wedding Cake Vodka tout a “taste of yummy vanilla-almond cake with hints of smooth, rich buttercream frosting.” Indeed, it does feel like cake in a glass, which is why, if you decide not to sip it chilled and served neat, we’d suggest pairing it with chocolate-flavored or cream-based mixers, such as those in the recipes below.
