Deep Eddy Ruby Red Vodka

Ruby Red is the vodka that made Deep Eddy famous — launched in April 2013, it's the reason the brand became one of the fastest-growing spirits in America and the model for every real-juice flavored vodka that followed. Deep Eddy is named for the oldest swimming hole in Austin, Texas, founded in 2010 by Clayton Christopher of Sweet Leaf Tea and Chad Auler of Savvy Vodka, and now part of Heaven Hill. The base is 100% corn vodka, column-distilled ten times and charcoal-filtered at the Dripping Springs distillery; this expression blends it with real Ruby Red grapefruit juice and a touch of pure cane sugar, bottled at 35% ABV (70 proof). Naturally gluten-free, under 70 calories an ounce. It pours faintly cloudy — that's the juice. Expect a nose of fresh-squeezed grapefruit, opening into a palate that's tart, bright, and just sweet enough, the corn vodka soft underneath, finishing crisp and refreshing. Wooden Cork calls it tart and invigorating, ideal for a Texas Paloma. Honest note: it's a flavored vodka with real sugar, and purists should reach for the original — but among grapefruit vodkas, nothing tastes more like the fruit. The serve is the simplest in spirits: Ruby Red and club soda over ice, with a lime. Also a Greyhound straight from the bottle, a Salty Dog, a Paloma with soda and lime, or a spritz with prosecco. Austin's grapefruit, in a bottle.
