Absolut Nights Nordic Spice is Ready to Shoot
Michael Hemsworth — September 20, 2023 — Lifestyle
The Absolut Nights Nordic Spice is the second addition to the brand's shot range that's formulated with spiced flavors and fruit-forward notes in mind to make it the perfect option for consumers to try out this fall.
The spirit is inspired by spices traditionally used in Nordic culture, and boasts a vodka base with green cardamom, ginger and apple flavors for a fruity yet spicy profile. The spirit features a 35% ABV and is recommended served ice cold and straight up with apple juice or ginger ale as the chaser. The product comes in electric green glass bottles as a way to pay homage to the culture of nighttime city streets in Nordic locations. The spirit will make its debut in China this month ahead of a global rollout starting in January 2024.
Director for Product Portfolio and Innovation at The Absolut Group Nancy Baghdadi commented on the Absolut Nights Nordic Spice saying, "The night out has always been Absolut Vodka’s heartland, but today’s generation of partygoers have an appetite for bolder flavours and innovative drinks. Absolut Nights Nordic Spice, like our first drink in the new shot range, Absolut Nights Smoky Piña, was another opportunity for us to tap into local culture through urban mixes with global appeal.”
