Any recommendation's, of which brand to buy?

I make my own, but have noticed that Kikkoman makes a boxed mix. It is not very hard to make homemade:
1 1/2 cups flour
1/2 cup cornstarch
1 egg
1 cup vodka
1 cup seltzer water

Du you have to use vodka?

No, vodka is not required, as a matter of fact, I've never seen vodka as an ingredient for tempura batter.
I use:

I've always added the vodka, so I don't know if leaving it out makes a difference in the outcome. I remember an episode of "America's Test Kitchen" where they said that adding vodka to tempura makes the batter light and crispy.

I, too, make my own and use beer.
It's easy - try it, you'll like it.

@goldensrbest @I make my own or use Golden Dipt. I think the company is owned by McCormick. It's good. ICE YOUR WATER, don't fry too many pieces at a time, control the oil temperature. You will need lots of paper towels. Tempura can be a little messy.
Sliced sweet potatoes are delicious.

This is what I do as well .. depends on what I'm frying up. W/ seafood I use the Golden Dipt w/ beer instead of water and add a tsp of Old Bay seasoning. Lots of time they stock the Golden Dipt near the meat/seafood sections in a store. W/ veggies, I tend to make my own batter ... still use beer ... don't add the Old Bay.
Enjoy. Love tempura batter anything.
