Smirnoff Spicy Tamarind is a flavoured vodka inspired by the vibrant heart of Mexico, bottled at 35% ABV (70 proof) in a big 1.75-litre bottle.
Every sip is a symphony of tangy, sweet and sour, with a gentle chilli heat that echoes the passionate spirit of its inspiration.
Just like its rich flavour, the bottle hides a secret: its colourful calavera artwork glows under black light.
It is a soulful drink for the bold and the brave, and it has earned a double gold award.
The generous 1.75L size is made for parties, from backyard cookouts to Día de los Muertos celebrations. Tamarind's natural sweet-and-sour character is a staple of Mexican candies, aguas frescas and street snacks, and this vodka brings that familiar tang into easy, colourful cocktails that look as good as they taste.

How to Enjoy It
Smirnoff Spicy Tamarind shines in a Piña Picante: shake 1.5 oz Spicy Tamarind with 1 oz pineapple juice and a quarter ounce of simple syrup, strain over fresh ice, top with soda and garnish with a Tajín rim and a pineapple wedge. It is also great with mango juice, in a spicy Bloody Mary, with grapefruit soda as a tamarind Paloma, or simply with soda water and lime. For a party, mix a pitcher of Piña Picantes and set out Tajín, lime wedges and pineapple slices so guests can garnish their own. Pair it with tacos al pastor, elote, mango with chilli and lime, and spicy wings. For a gathering, chill the bottle and set out glasses, ice and garnishes so guests can serve themselves. A bottle also makes a thoughtful host gift for a dinner party or the holidays.
