The other day my bff Emily told me all about her new favorite drink, a vodka press. We are huge vodka drinkers, and when we're not guzzling Grey Goose martinis, we're sipping vodka tonics or vodka sprites or vodka on the rocks — you get the picture. What happens when we are in the mood for a vodka that is neither too sweet (like a vodka sprite) nor too strong (like a vodka tonic)?? Enter the vodka press. It's the prefect refreshing mixture that combines both drinks.
In a vodka press, vodka is diluted with both a club soda or tonic and Sprite. Hello?! How come we are just now learning about this drink?? If you love vodka as much as I do and want to make this cocktail, read more

This sounds pretty good! But I think I'd use club soda for sure, the thought of mixing vodka, tonic and Sprite sounds a bit weird.

9Sounds DANGEROUS!!!
10I'd strongly suggest using Stoli Blueberry Vodka in this recipe... Blueberry Press' are my fave drink!
11i agree with radnessa- blueberry press (with lemon) is awesome! but i have always known presses to be made with club soda, not tonic water. i don't think tonic would be very good eith sprite. and if you're watching your calories (you probably shouldn't be drinking, but where's the fun in that?) just go with blueberry/ your fav flavored vodka with club soda and a lemon or lime twist. leaving the soda out cuts calories and sugar-which is often what leads to a hangover.
12I like to mix the Van Gogh dutch chocolate vodka with club soda. The flavor of the cocoa is so strong, you can do it without sugar! It's like a chocolate soda with a kick!
13I always order vodka and soda with a splash of 7, squeeze of lemon. I had no idea it had a name! It sure is a mouth full the way I've been ordering - thanks!
14Awesome suggestions...kickinthecherries. It'll taste like a yahoo. Mmmm...
15This drink is best when you use ginger ale instead of club soda.
16I love vodka and soda with a splash of gingerale at home but don't know what to call it.
17I do it with club soda vs. tonic water, and what's even better is a drink I get at my country club it's a vodka press (with club soda) HOWEVER you add a SPLASH just a SPLASH of sweet and sour and a about 4 squeezes of FRESH lime juice....... it's amazing!
18So, I went out to Portland with a girlfriend and she insisted I tried a Blueberry Press. Let me say that I am not one to drink mixed drinks as most give me heartburn. This was a PERFECT drink! I drank my first one with ease, and the 2nd one came right after- Whilst dancing I would get thirsty, take a sip and actually feel refreshed! At no time did I cringe when sipping, which is a good sign! I had about 5 that night, and I never got sick of it. This is not my "drink" when I go out.
19Whoops, I typed it wrong this *IS* my drink when I go out....lol
