About this vodka
Smirnoff Ice is a ready-to-drink flavoured beverage from Smirnoff, sitting under the vodka category as a lighter, session-style option for guests who want something simple and cold rather than a mixed drink built to order. It is a familiar, recognisable label for casual moments on board.
Serve it straight from the bottle or over ice at 4°-6°C, ideally on deck or during downtime rather than at the dinner table. It suits guests who want an easy, undemanding drink without engaging the full bar.
