It is also distilled multiple times to achieve high levels of alcohol content and remove impurities, resulting in a smooth and clean spirit. In addition, due to its neutral taste, vodka is widely used as a base for a diverse range of cocktails, including classics like the Martini, Cosmopolitan, Bloody Mary, and Moscow Mule. Moreover, there are numerous flavored vodkas available, which are infused with various natural or artificial flavors. These flavored variants offer a wide range of options for mixing and experimentation.
