( 4UMF NEWS ) Mob Wives Star Parties At Vodka Launch:

As New York’s Fashion Week winded to a close, Fou-Dre vodka held its exclusive launch at midtown Manhattan 320 Studios. The all-natural, ultra premium vodka is the brainchild of founder and CEO Chanel Turner. The D.C. native founded Fou-Dre, which means lightning in french, in 2009 with her own investments making her the first African-American woman to be a proprietor of a vodka brand.

The celebration kicked off at nightfall. Invited guests of the exclusive invitation-only launch mingled with each other while sipping on signature cocktails. Patrons lined up as beautiful models poured shot after shot of Fou-Dre vodka at the top of an ice sculpture in the shape of a lightning bolt.

Eleet Mag had the opportunity to talk to 28-year-old Turner who talked about the eco-friendly ultra-premium vodka. The unique bottle, made in the shape of a lightning bolt, is made from 100% recycled glass and dyed and labeled with 100% organic ink. Fou-Dre vodka has a smooth taste without the bitter after bite. A great mixer, the fruit-infused vodka can stand alone and be enjoyed by itself.

Several celebrities were on hand to mark the vodka launch. “Mob Wives” star Carla Facciolo showed up with fellow Vh1 star and rapper Tony Tesh. Recording artist None, who recently appeared on BET’s 106 & Park, was on hand to join the festivities. Other noted celebrities included actor Thom Scott and Chef JJ.

The invited guests kept the bartenders on hand busy mixing the signature cocktails. DJ Dallas Green kept the crowd dancing well into the night, spinning tunes and mixing old school hits with the new.
