A raspberry vodka cocktail light years ahead of the pack

Tangy, acerbic with a warm ginger undertone, our Raspberry Ginger Gimlet is beautifully balanced. We decided to put a truly unique raspberry vodka cocktail twist on a classic gin Gimlet. And we’re pumped with the result. If you’ve ever wondered what mixes with raspberry vodka here’s the liquid solution.

A synergy of flavor

The secret lies in the balance of flavors and this raspberry vodka recipe hits that taste sweet spot head-on with every bold sip. Fresh raspberries echo the sharp flavor synonymous with our super smooth EFFEN Raspberry Vodka. Cranberry juice and zesty lime amp up the sour factor. Fresh sugar syrup then kicks in to soften and mellow, before aromatic ginger throws in an element of spicy contrast. Shake this up round the festival fire or jamming with your friends lakeside. Give it up for the Gimlet – your new standout raspberry vodka drink.

Pro Tip

Muddling: Decoded

Muddling is a pro mixologist’s term. In short it means to crush fruit, sugar or herbs to intensify flavors and help them mix more easily with alcohol. (exactly like here in our raspberry vodka cocktail recipe). The key is to use a sturdy glass or cocktail shaker and press down firmly on the ingredients with the muddler, using a twisting motion. When muddling herbs go easy on them; a heavy hand will kill the flavor.

Making a mudldling is an essential for every good cocktail.

Shake, stir, sip: enjoy a moment of pure pleasure
