Vodka Slime
Cocktail recipe

Rating

3.87 / 5
The Vodka Slime is a simple, tangy cocktail that combines the clear, smooth essence of vodka with the citrus burst of lime juice, rounded off with the sweet and bubbly notes of lemon-lime soda. This refreshing mix is typically served in a highball glass, offering a zesty and effervescent experience ideal for those who enjoy a less potent cocktail with a lively flavor profile. Its name, "Vodka Slime," is a nod to the drink's slightly viscous quality given by the lime juice when mixed with soda, making it a playful choice for casual gatherings or a quick pick-me-up.

FAQ's

Preparation techniques icon

Why is the Vodka Slime stirred and not shaken?

The Vodka Slime is stirred instead of shaken to gently combine the vodka with the acidic lime juice and carbonated lemon-lime soda without disrupting the carbonation too much. Shaking could lead to an over-diluted drink with less fizz.

Serving suggestions icon

What type of glass is best for serving a Vodka Slime, and can it be served in any other types?

A Vodka Slime is best served in a highball glass, which showcases its clarity and effervescence. However, if a highball glass is not available, a Collins glass can be a suitable alternative.

Ingredient substitutions icon

Can I substitute lemon-lime soda with another mixer if I don't have it for a Vodka Slime?

Yes, if lemon-lime soda is unavailable, you can substitute it with a combination of soda water and a splash of freshly squeezed lemon and lime juice, or even ginger ale for a slightly different taste profile.

Alcohol content comparison icon

How does the alcohol content of a Vodka Slime compare to other popular cocktails?

The Vodka Slime has an alcohol content of 6.67%, which is relatively low compared to stronger cocktails like a Margarita (around 13%-15%) or a Martini (around 15%-20%). It's more comparable to light cocktails or mixed drinks, making it a suitable choice for those preferring a less potent beverage.

Occasion suitability icon

Is the Vodka Slime suitable for any specific occasions?

The Vodka Slime, with its refreshing taste and relatively low alcohol content, is perfect for summer gatherings, outdoor barbecues, and casual social events. Its simplicity and the cooling effect of lime make it a great choice for warm weather occasions.
