What Does Vodka Mix With? 6 Tasty Ideas for Your Next Cocktail

Home / Drinks & Alcohol / What Does Vodka Mix With? 6 Tasty Ideas for Your Next Cocktail

It’s a common question among new vodka drinkers or people just looking for a tasty new mixer: what does vodka mix with? Luckily, there are plenty of drink options that you can mix with vodka to mix up a tasty cocktail.

Whether you’re looking for a mixer that’s low-calorie, sweet, or flavorless, there is no shortage of beverage options to combine with vodka. In this post, we’ve highlighted six of the best options, including soda water, fruit juice, and flavored sparkling water. Keep reading to find one that pleases your palate.

Soda water

Since vodka is relatively low in calories (as far as alcohol goes) and soda water doesn’t contain any calories, a vodka soda is a typical cocktail for people who are watching their weight. However, soda water is also flavorless, so many people opt to squeeze in a fresh lemon or lime wedge to add a bit of taste.

Fruit juice

If you don’t mind a bit of sugar in your cocktail, you can mix your vodka with any type of fruit juice (depending on your taste preferences). Pineapple juice, cranberry juice, and orange juice are all popular mixers to mask the flavor of vodka and craft a sweet and refreshing beverage.

Tonic water

Tonic water is similar to soda water, except it has a stronger flavor and contains calories. Although tonic is better known as a mixer for gin, it can also be combined with vodka to create a simple but delicious cocktail. And like with soda water, many people choose to add a squirt of lemon or lime to add a touch more flavor.

Flavored sparkling water

Hard seltzers have become a trendy alcoholic beverage, but they can be a bit pricey to buy in bulk. You can make your own version of seltzer by combining vodka with any flavor of sparkling water, including coconut, grapefruit, or watermelon. Not only can you save money by making your own drinks, but you can create unique concoctions that can’t be purchased in stores.

Soft drinks

It’s a less common way to enjoy vodka, but some people enjoy it mixed with a soft drink, such as Sprite or Coca-Cola. To cut down on calories and sugar, you could opt for a diet version of your favorite soda. Like everything else, it’s a matter of personal preference, but you might find that soft drinks are your mixer of choice for vodka.

Lemonade

Finally, lemonade is another answer to what does vodka mix with. Since it has a sweet taste, it’s a good option for people who aren’t crazy about the taste of liquor and want a sugary kick to mask it. You can either make your own lemonade or purchase a pre-mixed version at your local grocery store.

As far as spirits go, vodka is arguably the most versatile when it comes to mixing with non-alcoholic beverages. Whether you’re trying to enjoy a low-cal beverage or a refreshingly sweet drink, you can use any of these six ingredients to whip up your next favorite cocktail.
