Every girl loves desserts and cocktails..... why not combine the two? Well that's exactly what Pinnacle Vodka just did. Pinnacle Vodka is another French made Vodka ( think Grey Goose or Ciroc) and is known for their Pinnacle Whipped Vodka and in case you weren’t already aware, Pinnacle Vodka has nearly 30 crazy infusions to choose from, ranging from blueberry to root beer! In May of 2011 Pinnacle Vodka came out with a new cake flavored vodka... I know what you're thinking... YUM :)  The price for a  750ml bottle is around $13.99 depending on the store.

On their website, Pinnacle Vodka has several recipes for martinis and shooters to try out with their new cake flavored vodka. Here are a few recipes that sounded de-lish to me:
