Back in my younger years I was a mall rat. Every weekend I would hit the mall with my friends armed with spending money from my parents or babysitting gigs.  And after our shopping excursion, we always had to end on a sweet note at Cinnabon.

There aren’t any malls in NYC, but thanks to Pinnacle I can still get my Cinnabon fix. Pinnacle teamed up with Cinnabon and created a vodka that is just as tasty as my food court favorite. There is finally a Cinnabon that can actually get you drunk. Who doesn’t want to get cinna-wasted? #iwantpinnaclecinnabon

The novelty liquor “combines the decadent flavors of cinnamon, brown sugar and rich cream-cheese frosting with hints of caramel to create a taste reminiscent of warm, freshly baked cinnamon rolls.” The 70-proof vodka is perfect in brunch cocktails.

Last weekend I was invited by Pinnacle to celebrate their launch of the Cinnabon flavored vodka at their #IWantPinnacleCinnabon pop-up sampling tour. I was able to try the Pinnacle Cinnabon Vodka, eat delicious Cinnabon cinnamon rolls and receive a fun Pinnacle swag bag.
