How to Make a Vodka Lime Cocktail

Some things in the world just go together well. Perfect pairings that immediately spring to mind include cheese and crackers (or cheese and wine), champagne and caviar, or holidays and summer. Nature works in mysterious ways – and who are we to try and fight naturally occurring, perfect matches that pop up from time to time?

One of those perfect matches, as far as we’re concerned, is vodka and lime, which is why we’ve created our top list of Vodka and Lime Cocktails for your enjoyment. We’ve taken the time to break down some of our favorite vodka-lime recipes to show you how to make the perfect cocktail.

Solar Flare

This is a special recipe that was crafted to enhance the flavors of the Bundaberg Blood Orange drink. We think it’s a real winner – and the citrus flavors are incredible!
