ON THE ROCKS BUT STILL RULING THE WAVES

Here are two gems for your 'learn something new everyday' moment: 1. Britain makes Vodka and 2. It's the best in the world! The Britpop tag of 'Cool Britannia' is once more relevant as Chase Vodka from Herefordshire has been awarded the World's Best Vodka with a Double Gold Medal in the spirit industries equivalent of the Oscars - The San Francisco World Spirits Competition. The English potato vodka was voted top out of 115 vodkas worldwide, which included larger mass produced companies from Russia, Poland, Scandinavia and the USA.

Intriguingly, this most sophisticated of Vodkas has its origins in the lowly crisp, with owner William Chase establishing that successful brand of high-end potato chips - Tyrells. Eager for a new challenge, he took the same potatoes used to make his crisps and committed himself to producing a vodka of the highest pedigree using methods that not only ensured quality but also respected tradition and the environment. A triumph since the first batch in June 2008, Chase Vodka has become renowned for its creamy texture, full flavour and super smooth finish, culminating in this year's prestigious reward.

Chase have recently added a superb gin to their portfolio and also produce some of the country's finest fruit liqueurs, the Elderflower being used with Chase vodka in the following flirtatious cocktail.

Kiss Chase

1. Take one high ball glass and fill with ice cubes.
2. Administer 35ml of Chase Vodka and 15ml of Chase Elderflower Liqueur.
3. Fill the remainder of glass with fresh pressed apple juice.
4. Finish with a squeeze of lemon juice.
