3. Absolut Lime Mule

The Absolut Lime Mule is just how easily Absolut Lime can add a unique, zesty twist to classic cocktails.

The Absolut Lime version takes that  formula and doubles down on the lime, using Absolut Lime in place of regular vodka for a sharper, more citrus-forward take on the beloved classic.

The result is a Mule with a little more citrus edge – bold ginger heat, bright lime throughout, and two lime wedges to finish.

4. Key Lime Colada

The Key Lime Colada takes everything you love about a classic Piña Colada but replaces the light rum with lime-flavored vodka.

Absolut Lime, fresh lime juice, simple syrup, and coconut milk come together for a drink that’s rich, tangy, and lime-forward. “You think it’s going to be super heavy and creamy. It’s actually very light and flavorsome,” shares Ricardo’ Rico’ Dynan, Bartender and Absolut Global Brand Ambassador.

The biscuit crumb rim is the finishing touch that ties the whole thing together and a nod to the iconic Key Lime Pie crust that inspired it. Trust us, the Key Lime Colada is delicious and unlike any Colada you’ve tried before.

5. Absolut Lime Vodkarita

Introducing the Absolut Lime Vodkarita – a Margarita made with vodka that puts lime front and center by using Absolut Lime as its base. Fresh lime juice and agave syrup keep things perfectly balanced, while the salt rim delivers that iconic Margarita finish.

All the citrusy character of a classic Margarita but with vodka twist that takes the drink somewhere new.
