Friday Happy Hour - Bison Grass Cocktails

by Andrew Barrow, Posted Mar 31st 2006 @ 4:52PM

A friend of mine hails from Poland. He returned from a trip home with a rather nice bottle of bison grass vodka and enthused about mixing it with fresh apple juice. And by heck, laddie, it was good! In addition to this, mix two other cocktails that use this distinctively flavoured vodka for this weeks happy hour. Bison is a type of grass with a blade usually placed in the bottle. It is native to the Bialowieza forest, home of the European bison.
