The 23 Best Vodka Brands That Belong In Your Home Bar

Whether you're taking shots or making a mixed drink, vodka is a workhorse. A good vodka will have a neutral flavor and smooth finish. It's also the most versatile spirit available. Vodka can take center stage when mixed into a martini, or it can allow other flavors to shine in cocktails, Jell-O shots, and even pasta sauces. It's also the perfect spirit for infusing your own liquor or making homemade vanilla extract.
