Pink Whitney has an alcohol content of 30% ABV (60 proof), making it stronger than most flavored vodkas.
Pink Whitney is a pink lemonade-flavored vodka created by New Amsterdam Vodka in collaboration with the Spittin' Chiclets hockey podcast. With 30% alcohol by volume, it falls between standard vodka (40% ABV) and lower-proof liqueurs. The sweet, citrus flavor masks the alcohol taste, which can make it easier to drink quickly, though it still delivers a significant alcohol content.

Responsible consumption guidelines
While Pink Whitney's flavor profile makes it appealing, its 30% ABV means standard alcohol safety guidelines apply. One shot equals one standard drink. The sweet taste can mask alcohol content, so pacing consumption is advisable. Mixing with non-alcoholic beverages reduces overall alcohol concentration per serving.
