Dive Brief:
- Pinnacle Vodka is partnering with Cinnabon, Inc., to create a cinnamon roll-flavored vodka.
- The 70-proof vodka packs the flavors of cinnamon, brown sugar, cream cheese frosting and hints of caramel, and can be served chilled, on the rocks or in festive cocktails.
- The vodka launches in select markets Dec. 1 and will be available nationwide Jan. 1 at $12.99 per 750ml bottle.
Dive Insight:
Pinnacle and Cinnabon are launching an "I Want Pinnacle Cinnabon Vodka Tour" to offer samples in promotion of the new drink, which they say is an "industry-first vodka innovation." A quick Google search, however, turns up Smirnoff Cinna-Sugar Twist and this image of a cinnamon roll vodka from Absolut—though we couldn't verify its existence.
