Vodka is most widely used in cocktail drinks. Vodka is easy to store, right in the freezer. That makes it easier to use all around the year as a base spirit for cocktails. Vodka tastes best when served ice cold. Vodka is high in alcohol content (9 cals/g). At about 7 calories per gram, there are considerable calories in vodka too. Clear vodka usually has 40% alcohol content while flavored vodka has about 30-35% alcohol.
