Get your candy fix with Michigan’s own Hard Luck candy vodka

If you live around metro Detroit and you’ve got a sweet tooth, chances are you’ve heard of Hard Luck Candy Flavored Vodka. Born at Grosse Pointe Park’s Hard Luck Lounge as an array of sweet candy infused vodka flavors, founders Mike Mouyanis, Chris George and Rob Nicholl are now making these delicious libations available all around town.

The time to celebrate is now. Hard Luck has already launched two flavors  – Red Fish and Root Beer Barrell – with more flavors to come. Drink them chilled straight up, or add a shot to a mixed drink for a sweet treat. These have even been used in barbecue sauces or marinades.

“Hard Luck Candy Flavored Vodka took years in the making to get the flavors just right, as well as the packaging and distribution and we’re so excited to launch this new hometown brand right here in Michigan with our ultimate goal of taking Hard Luck Vodkas national,” said Mouyianis.

Want to try them for yourself? Stop by the Hard Luck Candy Vodka Launch Party at 10 p.m. Thursday, Aug. 19 at The Loving Touch, 22634 Woodward Ave., Ferndale. Let us know what you think.

Hard Luck Candy Vodka is bottled in Temperance, Mich., distilled from grain through a three tower distillation process and is 70 proof (35 percent alcohol by volume). It is available at retail liquor stores and sold in bars and pubs throughout Michigan. Hard Luck Candy Flavored Vodka is distributed by General Wine & Liquor.
