Red wine might be an antioxidant powerhouse, but I love a good cocktail. With more studies coming out that tout the benefits of moderate alcohol consumption (it helps with memory, weight maintenance, and may even lower the risk of breast cancer), happy hour takes on a whole new meaning.
Take cocktail hour to the next healthy level by choosing an alcohol brand that has added health benefits. Looking for a spirit that's low in calories or brimming with superfoods? Keep reading!
So this is, um, interesting. Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino is leaving the Jersey Shore for a bit and West Coastin' it. On Saturday the trainer-turned-reality star will be in San Francisco signing bottles of Devotion vodka. If you've ever seen the Jersey Shore, pairing anyone from the cast with a vodka promotion probably isn't too surprising. The Jersey Shore crew likes to drink often and a lot. What is surprising is the actual product, Devotion vodka — it's protein infused! Whatever happened to using fruit?
I'm not sure who came up with this, but I think "The Situation" is the perfect spokesperson. He can still get his drink on and not worry about his abs turning into flab. I am totally kidding, obviously — I think I'm still shocked by the idea that someone is infusing vodka with protein. According to the Devotion vodka website, the protein gives its vodka a "smooth mouth feel."
And while Devotion vodka isn't marketing itself as having any health benefits (by law, it's not allowed to), "The Situation" is all about it: "The protein fits very well with my lifestyle, and this is the only vodka to have it."
What's next, fried Twinkies coated with chia seeds?
