Smirnoff launches new Mango and Passionfruit Twist vodka perfect for Christmas cocktails

Smirnoff has knocked it out of the park this week with its latest vodka invention; the Mango and Passionfruit Twist.

Yep, long gone are the days when you’d be forcing down a putrid vodka and coke in the nightclub – these days, vodka doesn’t even taste like vodka and we couldn’t be happier about it.

The latest vodka offering comes courtesy of Smirnoff, owned by beer and spirits supplier Diageo, following the success of their Raspberry Crush flavour released over the summer.

The new Mango and Passionfruit Twist will bring your summer holiday to rainy Manchester with the flavours of, you guessed it, mango and passionfruit. 

Perfect for all those cocktails we’ll undoubtedly be consuming at home during the Queen’s speech on Christmas Day. It can also be enjoyed mixed with lemonade and garnished with a slice of lime or passionfruit, or as a Mango and Passionfruit Martini, Spritz or Punch Cocktail.

Nick Payman, head of Smirnoff GB at Diageo, said: “Smirnoff Mango & Passionfruit Twist echoes the vibrant, fun and bold new packaging that Raspberry Crush is now also known for, emulating the fruit flavours and guaranteeing on-shelf appeal.

“We have strong ambitions for our growing flavour range and are excited to be bringing a brand-new variety to our customers following the successful launch of Raspberry Crush, as well as growing consumer demand.”

Smirnoff also offer a number of other flavours, including their famous Raspberry vodka and their alcopop range, Smirnoff Ice Smash, which includes Peach and Mango and Pink Lemonade. 

The Mango and Passionfruit Twist vodka will be available to buy in Tescos and Booker Wholesalers from tomorrow, November 3rd, and will cost £15.99 per bottle. It will roll out to other supermarkets in March 2022.
