Utkin's organic spiritsPosted Apr 17th 2006 6:03PM by Nicole Weston Organic is a great option in all kinds of foods. Not only do you avoid hormones that may have been fed to your chicken or cow, but you can avoid pesticides in or on produce. You might be surprised to hear that your spirits can be organic, too. Utkins makes an organic vodka called UK5. It starts with organic grains and mineral water, so all the ingredients are organic. According to their site, many crops that are used for alcohol production receive large amounts of chemical pesticides, some which have been shown to cause damage to the human nervous system and even possibly cause cancer. The Utkins brand also puts out a Fair Trade White Rum, which shares its profits with the sugarcane farmers in Paraguay that supply the sugar for its production. Now, you can feel even better about your drink while you're having it, though I don't know that it will help you feel any better in the morning. |
