Bio Vodka, Mojito Vodka, Dinkel-Bier and a bottled hangover cure

Also launching a new vodka is Smirnoff, which has recently introduced a mojito-flavored vodka in the US. Mojito cocktails are traditionally made with rum, but Smirnoff has exploited this flavor's growing popularity with the Smirnoff Vodka Mojito, which is green in color and has a mint flavor, like the traditional cocktail. The mojito flavor has emerged in a variety of products in recent months; its appearance in a Smirnoff drink shows that the big brands are now coming up with their own derivations of this flavor.

In Germany, Neumarkter Lammsbräu has launched a new type of beer which is unusual in that it is made with organic spelt wheat. The Neumarkter Lammsbräu Öko-Dinkel-Bier is said to be made with the purest variety of spelt, while also being rich in vitamins and minerals - another curious claim for a beer to make. While its content may be unusual, it highlights that the beer maker is attempting to tap into the healthy premium trend.
