Svedka

Svedka is a mid-priced brand of vodka owned by New York–based Constellation Brands. The product name is a portmanteau of the words Sverige or svensk ("Sweden" and "Swedish" respectively in the Swedish language) and "vodka". The spirit is unaged 40% alcohol (80 proof). A bottle is produced using about of wheat and spring water. Svedka is bottled unflavored, and in citron, cherry, clementine, raspberry, vanilla, blue raspberry, and piña colada flavors. Svedka vodka originates from a small brewery in Lidköping, Sweden. For many Swedes it is unknown though. Svedka was acquired by Constellation Brands in March 2007 for US$384 million. They made some "spooky internet advertisements" for Halloween in 2017. This led to many customers feeling uneasy and was ultimately an unsuccessful marketing campaign.
