Ringing in the New Year doesn’t have to take its toll on you and the environment. Vodka is created by fermenting and then distilling the simple sugars from a mash of pale grain or vegetal matter. Did you know rye and wheat are the classic grains for making vodka? VeeV, the wheat-based vodka, is infused with 100% all-natural ingredients including Acai and is a certified carbon-neutral company. Still not green enough? VeeV even donates $1 per bottle sold to the Brazilian rain forest.
