5 Cocktails to Make with Absolut Wild Berri 

You’ve got a bottle of Absolut Wild Berri. The only question worth asking now is what to make with it

Absolut Wild Berri is our berry-flavored vodka — sweet blackberries and raspberries on the nose, with a palate that goes somewhere deeper. Think oven-fresh blueberry pie layered with fruits of the forest jam.

Made with natural flavor and produced in Åhus, a village in southern Sweden.

What drinks can you make with Absolut Wild Berri? 

From a two-ingredient lemonade to twists on cocktail classics like the Bramble and Margarita, Absolut Wild Berri pairs naturally with lemon-lime soda, fresh citrus juice and homemade lemonade.

Here are five of the best combinations — and how to make each one.

1. Wild Berri Bramble 

Invented by the same late legendary London bartender behind the Espresso Martini and Bikini Martini, the Bramble is a British cocktail classic — gin, blackberry liqueur, lemon juice and simple syrup, served over crushed ice.   

The Wild Berri Bramble swaps gin for Absolut Wild Berri, doubling down on the berry character and adding a blackberry liqueur float that layers through the drink as you sip. 

Ingredients: 

• 1 part Absolut Wild Berri 
• ⅔ part Lemon Juice 
• ⅓ part Simple Syrup 
• ⅓ part Blackberry Liqueur 
• Lemon half-moon, to garnish 
• 2 Fresh Blackberries, to garnish 

How to Make a Wild Berri Bramble

1. Add ⅔ part lemon juice into a cocktail shaker. 
2. Add ⅓ part simple syrup. 
3. Add 1 part Absolut Wild Berri. 
4. Fill the shaker with ice cubes. 
5. Shake vigorously until the shaker is frosty. 
6. Fill a rocks glass with crushed ice. 
7. Strain directly into the glass. 
8. Garnish with a lemon half-moon. 
9. Pour ⅓ part blackberry liqueur gently over the back of a bar spoon to create a float. 
10. Garnish with two fresh blackberries.

2. Wild Berri Swizzle  

The Wild Berri Swizzle is a built cocktail — Absolut Wild Berri, fresh lime juice, simple syrup, fresh muddled mint and a few dashes of bitters, served directly in a glass over crushed ice. No shaker, no strainer. But you will need a swizzle stick — now you get why it’s called a Wild Berri Swizzle.

The mint and berry combination is one of those pairings that just works — fresh, fragrant and fruit-forward. 

Ingredients: 

• 1 part Absolut Wild Berri 
• ½ part Lime Juice 
• ½ part Simple Syrup 
• 8-10 Mint Leaves 
• 4-5 Dashes Bitters 
• Crushed Ice 
• Mint Sprig, to garnish 

How to make a Wild Berri Swizzle: 

1. Add 8-10 mint leaves to a highball glass and add ½ part simple syrup over them. 
2. Gently muddle the mint to release the oils — don’t over-muddle or the mint will turn bitter. 
3. Fill the glass with crushed ice. 
4. Add 1 part Absolut Wild Berri into the glass. 
5. Add ½ part fresh lime juice. 
6. Add 4-5 dashes of bitters. 
7. Use a swizzle stick or bar spoon to swizzle the drink — insert it into the glass and rotate rapidly between your palms to combine and chill. 
8. Top with more crushed ice and garnish with a mint sprig.
