If you haven’t wondered, as we have, about the latest medicine show fad to sweep this land of ours, brace yourself for a slew of acai berry cocktails.
As pointed out in our Chewing The Fat column, acai (pronounced ah-sigh-ee) flounders in VeeV, a 60-proof, sweet clear spirit probably guaranteed to create and cure your hangover, all in one go. Of course, no telling what happens to antioxidant, antibacterial and anti-inflammatory…wait, don’t we need oxidants?…properties when steeped in vodka.
Beginning Sunday, VeeV hits the top shelf at 20 local restaurants and bars, including: The Porch, Villa-O (we can see that), Lotus, Victor Tangos (they’ll play with just about anything), Candleroom, Cuba Libre, Livingroom, Plush, Hully & Mo’s, Dolce, Fedora (of course in the trendy newcomer), Fuse, Fireside Pies, Bob’s Steak & Chop House (what?), Abacus (what what?) and Nobu (?).
Oh, how far we’ve fallen.
When news happens, Dallas Observer is there —
Your support strengthens our coverage.
We’re aiming to raise $30,000 by December 31, so we can continue covering what matters most to you. If the Dallas Observer matters to you, please take action and contribute today, so when news happens, our reporters can be there.
VeeV marketing types already have a few drink suggestions. VeeV Fizz (VeeV, Meyer Lemon–naturally–dash of an orange and club soda); VeeV-a Les James (VeeV, club soda, and grapefruit juice) and so on.
On the plus side, when you buy a bottle of VeeV at a liquor store (look for it at Buckeye Liquor or Goody Goody), $1 goes back into the Sustainable Acai Project.
