Advantages: Wicked cocktails

Disadvantages: Bit more expensive than vodka

Blavod is simply black Vodka. It's as strong as vodka and tastes as horrible as vodka. The only difference is the colour.

So if you don't care what the spirit you're drinking looks like (ie: when you're really drunk), go for normal vodka as it's a bit cheaper. But if you're still sober and want to impress your mates, try some Blavok cocktails.

When you buy a bottle of Blavod you get a little folder thing that gives you ideas of cocktails to make. It doesn't tell you the proportions of alcohol to use, but it gives you the main ingredients and what they look like.

The easiest one to make is Black Bull. It's Blavod poured on top of Red Bull. When the Blavod is slowly poured on top, it stays there. So you have a light yellow Red Bull on the botton and a black Blavod floating over it. It looks really wicked, but I advise you to mix the Red Bull and the Blavod before you drink it. Otherwise you'll drink all the Blavod first and the Red Bull last. And we all know that vodka on it's own is horrible!

You can do the same as Black Bull but with orange juice. Which makes an orange sundance (if I'm not wrong). If you slowly pour the Blavod over the orange juice, you'll have the orange juice at the bottom and the blavod floating on top. But when you mix the two together you got a nasty light green colour which is not very appetising. But if you don't think about the colour, it tastes like normal vodka and orange juice.

There are other mixes that you can do. Some require two non alcoholic drinks and Blavod. I can't remember the names, but I can remember that the bottom colour was red, then blue in the middle and the Blavod on top.

So you can really do some wicked cocktails with Blavod, but the taste is excatly like vodka, because after all, it IS vodka!
