New Texas-Style Sweet Tea Signature Drinks

When I started gathering inspiration for my wedding, I kept coming across lovely images of sweet tea vodka concoctions served in mason jars. They were mostly weddings in South Carolina and the drinks used Firefly Sweet Tea Vodka. But wait, that's not made in Texas! So I disappointedly put them aside.

Say hello to the new Texas-born-and-bred sweet tea vodka: Deep Eddy Sweet Tea Vodka
Is your jaw dropping to the floor in awe and excitement like mine? The founders of SAVVY vodka and Sweet Leaf Tea got together to make a beverage named after Austin's favorite swimming hole using some of the best ingredients Texas has to offer:

• mineral-rich Texas spring water
• 100% pure cane sugar from Sugarland, Texas
• Clover honey from Austin’s Good Flow Honey Co.

My mouth is totally watering right now. I'm going straight to Specs or Twin Liquors to get my bottle.
