Looking for gluten-free vodka made with natural ingredients? Try Azzurre.

By Cari Jorgensen

Very few spirits are gluten-free. Even less are gluten-free, minimally distilled, sustainably sourced and come in a 100 percent recyclable bottle. But one vodka can claim to be all of these things: Azzurre. This vodka is made from yellow apples, wine grapes and sugar cane, providing a blend that many will find refreshing – even if you’re not on a gluten-free diet.

Try the award winning vodka straight or in one of these summer cocktails:
