Vodka cocktail recipes
Vodka has no flavour to argue with, which means the other ingredients are the entire drink. In an Espresso Martini, the coffee liqueur at 1.10 g/ml is nearly 17% heavier than the vodka at 0.94 g/ml — pour both to the same volume and you have poured meaningfully different masses of sugar and alcohol.
These are the vodka drinks worth making properly, each with the weight alongside the volume.
