How to Mix

Add a twist
If raspberries aren’t your thing, try a different type of flavored vodka that pairs well with ginger and lime. For example, Absolut Grapefruit adds more of a zesty twist. Or go all-out and pour Absolut Lime into the mix, even muddling some wedges for an all-out citrus hit. However, you may want to balance this out with a splash of sweet syrup.
Common questions
Still looking for tips and inspiration for Absolut Raspberri Mule? We’ll leave you with these common questions.
Raspberry is an incredibly versatile flavor, so why not mix Absolut Raspberri vodka with citrus, spice and herbs? Lemonade and cranberry juice are classic picks, while fiery ginger beer balances the sweetness perfectly. For garnishes, try a few mint leaves or citrus slices like orange and grapefruit.
Typically, a raspberry mule cocktail uses plain vodka, raspberry syrup, lime juice, and ginger beer. However, our Absolut Raspberri Mule uses raspberry-flavored vodka, providing an extra layer of fruity flavor.
Yes, you can use ginger ale in a mule cocktail, but the result will be much sweeter and less spicy than when you use ginger beer. A mule is all about balance, so a fiery ginger beer perfectly complements the sweetness of the raspberry and sharpness of the lime juice.
“Fiery ginger. Sweet raspberry taste. Balanced out with a little bit of lime juice. Perfect summer drink, and one of my favorite twists on the classic mule.”
