Absolut Citron Lemon Flavoured Swedish Vodka, 70 cl

Product Information

Make this easy punch in large batches using vodka, lemonade concentrate, limeade concentrate, pineapple juice, and lemon-lime soda. Everything’s better when it’s by the pitcher, especially when it’s this strawberry lemonade sangria!

Vodka, lemon juice, and club soda make for a refreshing start, but you can take your cocktail to the next level with some mint simple syrup. If you have patience and a discerning palate this recipe will provide you with a key to a most excellent vodka and lemonade. A vegetable peeler is an excellent way to quickly get peels from a lemon without the bitter pith, and you can juice the remaining fruit for another use to avoid waste.

It takes just a few minutes to prepare, and the one-week infusion is generally hands-off—you just need to shake the infusion jar and test the flavor. We’ve had a dreary week here, too, and ending the day with this gorgeous lemon cocktail sounds perfect!

In a cocktail shaker, combine the vodka, triple sec, lemon juice, simple syrup and a few cubes of ice. To make a simple syrup, combine equal parts sugar and water and simmer in a small saucepan on the stove until the sugar is dissolved.

The homemade lemon vodka has a bright, tart taste that's excellent as a sipper, shot, or served on the rocks. The lemon vodka cocktail is an instant classic that’s perfect for lovers of the bright, tart, yellow fruit. Sometimes—as in the case of this pear cobbler cocktail—it's desirable and the boozy fruit can make a tasty treat. The best part of making cocktails at home, is that you get to decide the strength of all the flavors. Lemony lemon cocktails all sounding good and anything to do with lemon has become my favourite now and that picture perfect drink looks so refreshing Katherine.

The lemon vodka recipe is a basic liquor infusion, which is done by steeping flavoring ingredients in a base spirit for several days or weeks to extract the flavor. With a drizzle of sugar syrup, a glug of vodka, and a sprig of rosemary, you’ve achieved perfection.

Vodka's an excellent liquor for infusions because it has a neutral taste that lets the chosen flavor—in this case, the tartness of lemon peels—shine. I took Monday off and we got some family bike riding in – which worked out perfectly because it turns out that was the LAST warm day for the whole week! I highly, HIGHLY recommend using fresh lemon juice for optimum flavor, but in a pinch you could use 2 tbsp of bottled lemon juice instead! Or simply that Absolut Citron both enhances a wide selection of drinks and works brilliantly on its own just by adding ice? For decades, Absolut Citron has played a major part not only for “ Cosmo” fans around the world, but for the evolution of mixology as a whole.

I will often make some in the summer just to have on hand for simple drinks like this lemon vodka cocktail. Shake the jar daily and test the infusion after the third or fourth day to see how the flavor develops. It’s a small handful of ingredients, but the flavor profile in this lemon drink is out of this world. Since I like my cocktails a little bit sparkly, I’ve combined most of the same ingredients for my cocktail, with some soda water!However, there are not many great uses for the citrus peels used in this recipe (and they're not fun to eat), so it's best to discard them. Combine equal parts sugar and water in a small saucepan on the stove, and simmer until the sugar has dissolved. Beyond the satisfaction of creating your own custom liquor, homemade vodka infusions can save you money and you can adjust it to your personal preferences.
