Serving Tips from Our Cellar
Smirnoff Ice is best enjoyed well‑chilled. Ideally served at a temperature of 4–6°C. Store it in the fridge for a few hours before serving. For the perfect experience, serve it in a chilled glass over ice or enjoy it straight from the bottle. If you’re ordering delivery in Dubai, we recommend chilling it as soon as it arrives for the perfect drinking experience.
The Story Behind Smirnoff Ice
The story of Smirnoff Ice begins with the legendary Smirnoff brand. Smirnoff was founded in 1864 by Pyotr Arsenievich Smirnov in Moscow, Russia. It quickly became one of the world’s most iconic vodka brands, known for its exceptional purity and smoothness.
In the late 1990s, the brand sought to create a new, accessible product. They wanted to appeal to a modern audience looking for a refreshing, easy‑to‑drink alternative to traditional beers. The result was Smirnoff Ice — a premium malt‑based beverage infused with natural citrus flavours and the unmistakable quality of Smirnoff vodka.
The drink was an instant success, becoming a global phenomenon. It inspired a new category of ready‑to‑drink beverages. Today, Smirnoff Ice remains one of the most recognised and beloved products in the Smirnoff portfolio. It’s enjoyed in over 50 countries worldwide. Discover more on the official Smirnoff website.
