Have also tried most of the different flavours of cruiser, and like many RTDs do consider them to be like drinking lolly water... A little too yummy, and not too strong, a very easy drop to drink.

For some the flavours might not be to ones liking and I must admit that the Raspberry one is one of my least favourites, but the rest really are delicious. I have not yet tried Cool Lime or Lemon.

The bottles are easy to hold and the packaging attractive to the eye. The info on the labels easy to read and understand too which is good.

Can recommend vodka cruisers to anyone wishing to dry vodka for the first time, but I must say to be careful with consumption, as like I said it can be like drinking lolly water, and one could easily drink to much.

Having sampled most of the flavours since they appeared on the market, i find these drinks to be quite satisfying & even refreshing depending on your taste buds.
All rtd's tend to be quite sweet & these are no exception. However i didn't find them to be sickly sweet like others i have tried.
My personal favourites are the Grapefruit & lime flavour. These were slightly less sweet than the others, so appealed to my own preferences.
I don't drink often but these are near the top my list for a cheap buzz

I have had a soft spot for clear spirits for a while and was happy when these were introduced. I have tried adding different flavours to Vodka and the like for a while, usually with dismal results. This is a welcome change to the normal beer or other RTD.

My personal favourites, in order of preferrence would be Pineapple, Raspberry, Passionfruit then Lemon. I haven't tried the Lime or the Ice flavour but I have been told by those who have that they are nice.

I am not really a Vodka person... clear spirits don't really appeal to me much at all, being as I am a Bourbon Man.

However, when a mate shouted me one of the Pineapple Cruisers at a pub a little while ago, I was really pleasantly surprised at how tasy they were. I could still detect the tang of the vodka, but it had enough fruit flavour to mask the worst effects from my tastebuds.

I wouldn't say I have been converted, far from it, but I will admit that if I need a quick drink in the pub and I am in the mood for something sweeter than Bourbon, I would certainly consider a Cruiser...

Shame about the lack of Orange Cruisers though... can't seem to find any of them around.
