Recently, fast-food chain Arby’s, which was birthed in Boardman, Ohio, announced plans to release 80-proof Crinkle Fry- and Curly Fry-flavored vodkas.
The vodkas will be sold in limited quantities on November 18, and again on November 22 through Tattersall Distilling Company. The company will distill and bottle the flavors, which will sell for $59.99 each on ArbysVodka.Com (for those 21 and older). The liquors are made from premium potato vodka, cayenne, paprika, onion and garlic.
According to Arby’s chief marketing officer Patrick Schwing, the Crinkle Fry Vodka is “a subtle tribute to its namesake, made with real kosher salt and sugar to honor the rich tradition of salted potato shapes.”
“Though we’ve mastered the art of drive-thru fries, we wanted to take it one step further by making them 80-proof,” Schwing continued. “Being a potato-based liquor, this limited-edition vodka is infused with Crinkle and Curly Fry flavor so Arby’s fans who are of legal drinking age can responsibly enjoy our menu from bag to bottle.”
Neville Craw, who serves as Arby’s V.P. of culinary innovation and brand executive, stated in a separate press release that consumers can expect a “salty, potato experience” from each alcoholic beverage.
