 Spring 44 is made with 100% rare, distinct and pure water from a spring high in the Northern Colorado Rockies.  It is 5 times distilled and filtered using a virgin coconut carbon system that yields marked clarity and smoothness.  It is fantastic neat, on the rocks or mixed.  We especially love this cocktail from the Broadmoor's wine director Tim Baldwin because it plays up the delicate botanical aspect of Spring 44, as well as being divinely delicious.  [Spring 44 Vodka 26.99}

 Tip: Denver's Asian grocers are a great place to find dried hibiscus flowers (and passion fruit)
