“Trust me, you can dance.—Vodka”

“Trust me you can dance.—Vodka” has been printed on many images. The saying was possibly inspired by the famous drinking and dancing scene in the Broadway musical Fiddler on the Roof.
 
“Trust me – you can dance”—with a photo of a bottle of Smirnoff Vodka—was cited in print in March 2012. “Vodka: ‘I swear you can dance, just do!’” was cited on Twitter on June 18, 2012. “Vodka ‘Smirnoff’ : Trust me, YOU CAN DANCE!” was cited on Twitter on October 16, 2012.
