A lot of bookclubs are as much about the drinking and eating as they are about books.

For the longest time, I really tried to bring a dish that corresponded with the books we read for my bookclub. It was an apple pie for the Lincoln biography Team of Rivals and donuts for Olive Kitteridge (not a single donut was eaten).

Anyway, this is not about me. It's about Pinnacle Whipped Cream vodka.

The evening's host served us each a shot over ice, and boy-oh-boy, is this delicious. A drink and dessert all in one.

The whipped cream is just one of Pinnacle's 29 infused vodkas. Other flavors include cake, banana, and root beer.

It's $19.99 for a half gallon and is available at major liquor stores

Another bottle made a crucial cameo appearance that evening as well.

Actually, Wine Away ($8.99 at Amazon.com) has been called into service before at bookclub.

On this evening, the host's bouncy puppy caused a bouncy wine glass and stains on the upholstery. A few sprays and the stains were gone.
