Bedlam Vodka Continues National Expansion With Firebirds Restaurant

DURHAM, N.C., July 2, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- The South's most award-winning vodka, Bedlam, has continued its national expansion, entering 14 additional states as it is now featured on Firebirds Wood Fired Grill's menu in the restaurant's "Summer Breeze" cocktail in all US locations.  Bedlam is a unique vodka, distilled from long grain white rice which stems from a family recipe dating back to 19^th century Ireland.  The US-sourced rice base gives Bedlam an unmatched flavor profile, lending itself to use in cocktails in a manner unlike other vodkas.   

In addition to the current distribution of Bedlam (GA, NC, NJ, OK and SC), expansion in to the 14 additional states (AL, AZ, DC, DE, FL, IN, IA, KS, MD, MO, NE, PA, TN and VA) was completed at the request of Firebirds Wood Fired Grill, which has 51 locations in 19 states.   Bedlam is the basis of the restaurant's popular "Summer Breeze" cocktail which utilizes Bedlam infused with fresh cucumber, mint, and jalapeno, shaken with triple sec and fresh lime juice, and finally served on the rocks.   

"The uniqueness of Bedlam makes it incredibly compelling to experiment with in cocktails as a mixologist," says Lisa Kozloff, Director of Beverage at Firebirds.  "Bedlam adds another layer of personality to a mixed drink that you just don't get with a lot of other vodkas, making it a perfect fit with our energetic and distinctive FIREBAR^®".
