Winter wheat from the fields around Åhus, natural lemon and lime flavours, and no added sugar: those are the building blocks of Absolut Citron, a 40% ABV Swedish vodka that carries fresh citrus character without the artificial notes that often come with lower-quality flavoured spirits. Its 750ml bottle gives a generous volume for cocktail use.

Built for drinks where citrus sets the direction, it gains in definition in a Cosmopolitan and sharpens the profile of a Vodka Lemon. It also works with tonic water for a long, aromatic drink without needing to add juice.
