What Ingredients do you need to make a Woo Woo?
Vodka
We compared 12 different brands of Vodka and determined that Smirnoff was the overall best option. Given the current climate with Russia, that may seem like a questionable choice, but Smirnoff isn’t made in Russia, it’s made all over the world.
It actually has a history of Russian persecution and the creators were forced to flee Russia.
Peach Schnapps
Peach Schnapps is a peach-flavoured variant of the Schnapps alcoholic drink.
Schnapps may take several forms:
- Distilled Fruit Brandy.
- Herbal Liqueurs.
- Infusions – i.e. the process of extracting flavours from plant material in solvent such as water, oil, or in the case of Schnapps – alcohol.
- Flavour Liqueurs – this is where Peach Schnapps comes in.
The word Schnapps is a German term that refers to any kind of strong Alcoholic drink and over the years has become known as a style of drink. More about that here.

- Cranberry Juice
- Cranberry Sauce
- Frozen Cranberries
- Various dietary supplements that contain Cranberry extract.
For Cranberry Juice, we recommend:
