Below, you’ll find everything you need to know about mixing with this raspberry-flavored vodka, plus three cocktails to get you started.

What is Absolut Raspberri?

Absolut Raspberri is our raspberry-flavored vodka, launched in 2004 and produced and bottled in Åhus, in the south of Sweden.

Absolut Raspberri is built around the taste of wild raspberries and pairs naturally with fresh muddled berries, citrus fruits, lemonade, cranberry juice, ginger ale and club soda.

Made with natural flavor and with the distinct taste of sweet mashed wild raspberries and a complex berry depth.

What Mixes Well with Absolut Raspberri?

Absolut Raspberri’s sweet, tart raspberry character pairs naturally with a wide range of flavors. Here are a few combinations to try:

Fresh muddled berries

Muddle fresh raspberries, strawberries or blackberries in the bottom of a glass before adding Absolut Raspberri – the muddled fruit amplifies the wild berry character of the vodka and adds a natural depth that no mixer can replicate.

Citrus fruits

Fresh lemon or lime juice is the sharpest, most natural pairing for Absolut Raspberri – the tartness of the citrus amplifying the wild raspberry character while keeping the sweetness in check. Use it as the base for a Raspberri Collins (see below) or a Raspberri Sour.

Lemonade

Store-bought or homemade, lemonade is one of the most crowd-pleasing mixers for raspberry-flavored vodka. Pour Absolut Raspberri over ice in a highball glass, top with lemonade and garnish with fresh raspberries and a lemon wheel.

Cranberry juice

Sweet and tart, cranberry juice deepens the berry character of Absolut Raspberri without overpowering it. A natural pairing for anyone who enjoys a Cosmopolitan – try a Raspberri Cosmo with Absolut Raspberri, triple sec, cranberry juice and fresh lime juice.

Ginger ale

The subtle spiced sweetness of ginger ale works naturally alongside the raspberry character of Absolut Raspberri – sweeter than ginger beer, it’s a more understated combination that works well as a simple long drink over ice.

Club soda

The simplest mixer on the list – Absolut Raspberri and club soda over ice, garnished with fresh raspberries and a lemon wedge. Its clean, effervescent and allows the flavor of raspberry to take center stage.

3 Cocktails to Try with Absolut Raspberri

Raspberri Collins

The Raspberri Collins is a berry twist on the timeless Tom Collins – a classic gin cocktail that dates back more than 150 years.

Some drinks take you somewhere. The Raspberri Collins is one of them – tart, fruity and with a raspberry character that takes you back to long summer evenings, great friends and the smell of a BBQ that stays in the air.

The Raspberri Collins mixes Absolut Raspberri, fresh lemon juice, simple syrup and soda water. Best yet, it’s easy to make and built in a highball glass over ice, then garnished with a few fresh raspberries and a lemon wheel.

Raspberri Mule

Here’s the thing about the Raspberri Mule – it looks like something you’d order at a bar, tastes like something a professional made and takes just a couple of minutes to take.

The Raspberri Mule, also known as a Raspberry Mule, is a berry-forward twist on the classic Moscow Mule combining Absolut Raspberri, fresh lime juice and ginger beer, built in a copper mug over ice and garnished with fresh raspberries and a lime wedge.

The ginger beer brings a sharp, spiced heat that plays naturally against the sweet, tart raspberry character of our raspberry-flavored vodka.

Raspberri Sunrise
Remember the first time you had a Tequila Sunrise? The Raspberri Sunrise brings that same feeling — with a berry twist.

A variation of the classic Tequila Sunrise, the Raspberri Sunrise replaces the usual tequila base with Absolut Raspberri. The Raspberri Sunrise is a built drink made with Absolut Raspberri, orange juice and a dash of grenadine, garnished with an orange wedge and a fresh raspberry.

As Rico puts it: “Raspberry-flavored vodka from Absolut works fantastically with the orange juice and that nice little sweet pomegranate essence you get — it’s like a little hint in the background. You know it’s there; it just makes this a very nice, rounded drink.”

Ingredients:

• 45ml Absolut Raspberri
• 150ml Orange Juice
• 1 Dash Grenadine
• 1 Orange Wedge
• 1 Raspberry

For the best result, we recommend using a centrifugal juicer to make your orange juice – the aeration process creates a light, fluffy juice that gives the drink a better mouthfeel. Here’s everything you need to know about using a juicer to make cocktails.
