Old Bay Vodka, a collaboration between George's Beverage Company, McClintock Distilling and spice-maker McCormick, is set to hit liquor store shelves and bar displays later this month.
Old Bay seasoning is especially popular in the mid-Atlantic and Southern regions of the United States, but it's used all across the country for adding spicy, citrusy flavor to seafood dishes.
According to Baltimore Sun, the spice blend is named after the Old Bay Line, a local steamship line that traveled from Baltimore to Norfolk, Virginia in the early 20th century. Old Bay seasoning was invented by a man named Gustav Brunn, a German-Jewish immigrant who wanted to create the perfect crab seasoning for Marylanders. He offered a sample to a seafood wholesaler and business increased from there. The spice blend has become a staple for dishes such as crab cakes, lobster rolls, shrimp, and even deviled eggs.
