Continuing the increasingly ubiquitous pop-up store trend - Moët & Chandon are launching a temporary boutique- Atelier Moët - during the festive season on London’s New Bond Street.

Opening on the 3rd December customers will be able to buy personalised bottles of Moët, customised with Swarovski crystals, for delivery the next day  at £50 per bottle, or to take home that day for £75.

A little pricey for these crunchy times but cute all the same.

We went to the Absolut Masquerade Pop-Up bar/space/vintage fashion store for the opening night and over the weekend on Redchurch Street in London. Inconjunction with designer Daisy De Villeneuve and Mint vintage clothes store Absolut took over a space and decked it out with varying sizes of the limited edition sequinned Absolut bottle, free cocktails and vintage clothes for punters to try on. It was fun. Cocktails however were on the average and unimaginative side- vodka and tonic and a cosmo anyone? But all in all it was kinda cool and looked great. We particularly loved the Konstantin Grcic cocktail glasses. There must be a warehouse full somewhere left over from last year.  More pics after the jump…

Just when you thought vodka had ran out of ideas along comes a vodka made from pineapple juice and distilled in Hawaii. Pau Maui is the first vodka which has been made and bottled entirely in Hawaii. (Ocean vodka is bottled there but is actually distilled in Idaho.)

Not to politicize a small vodka producer but we like to think of it as an Obama friendly vodka.

The Independent on Sunday reports that the hugely controversial Cocaine energy drink is actually now on sale in the UK. Have you seen it? Let us know.

If you aren’t familiar with the background to Cocaine energy drink, we have put together a precis for you after the jump.

When researching energy drinks this week it reminded us how entertaining and um, eccentric some of the products are. So this is the first in a series of our top favourite and bizarre energy drinks released over the last few years. First up, is Deep Throat, an energy drink to “Keep you UP all Night”. We came across it earlier this year when it launched but thought it deserved a second coming. (ahem)
