hard-thyme-infused-blood-orange-lemonade-4You know how it is. Nowadays, it’s gluten-free this, gluten-free that, gluten-free WHATEVER. But, when it comes to gluten-free alcohol – well then you’ve got our attention!

This week in the New York International Spirits Competition, Devotion Vodka was named the Gluten Free Vodka of the Year. Not only are they the first and only brand of vodka to have a nutrition label on their bottle (gasp!), but they are also the world’s first sugar-free, gluten-free vodka. Sorry…come again? Yes – sugar-free and gluten-free…

Proving they are more than just the top health conscious option, but also supreme in taste and experience, Devotion Vodka took home the Gold Award for Devotion Vodka Blood Orange flavor and Silver Award for Tiki Tea.
