The chic-est vodka brand founded by powerhouse Kate Hudson, the ultimate Galore-approved cool girl.
For holiday entertaining Kate Hudson has been promoting her King St. Vodka brand, and their delicious featured holiday cocktails such as their Vegan White Russian, Matcha Green and Beauty Ora Spicy Vodka Tonic. (https://kingstvodka.com/recipes/#1). Kate credits entertaining with friends her inspiration for the brand, as she was whipping up dirty martinis and realized none of the vodka brands were female founded. The female-led craft vodka is crafted in Santa Barbara, under the watch of a master distiller. Their process uses GMO free corn and alkaline water for a gluten free ultra premium spirit, with a hint of sweet vanilla flavor. Distilled seven times then filtered, King St. is made from the best ingredients to deliver a clean and smooth taste. The name comes from the birthplace, as Kate would entertain from her home on King Street in New York City.
