Vodka is often celebrated for its versatility, serving as the perfect canvas for a wide range of flavours. Our Mermaid Salt Vodka takes this versatility to a new level, incorporating a hint of locally sourced sea salt to enhance its smoothness and depth. This unique touch not only elevates the spirit’s flavour profile but also opens the door to creative and intriguing cocktail combinations. Here are our top five mixers to try with our vodka, designed to bring out the best in this exceptional spirit.

Watermelon Juice

Watermelon juice is a refreshing and unexpected mixer that pairs beautifully with Mermaid Salt Vodka. The natural sweetness and subtle flavour of watermelon complement the vodka's smooth, slightly salty finish. This combination is perfect for a light, summery cocktail. Simply blend fresh watermelon, strain the juice, and mix it with vodka over ice. Garnish with a sprig of mint or a slice of watermelon for a refreshing twist.

Elderflower Cordial

Elderflower cordial adds a floral and slightly sweet note to vodka cocktails, creating a delicate and aromatic drink. The subtle saltiness of Mermaid Salt Vodka enhances the floral tones of the elderflower, making for a beautifully balanced cocktail. Mix vodka with elderflower cordial and a splash of soda water, then serve over ice with a lemon wheel or fresh elderflower sprig for a fragrant and elegant cocktail.

Soda Water

Soda water is a simple yet effective mixer for vodka, providing a crisp and clean base that allows the flavours of our Mermaid Salt Vodka to shine. This combination is perfect for those who prefer a lighter cocktail with a refreshing quality. Add a splash of soda water to the vodka, along with a squeeze of lemon or lime, for a delightful and easy-to-make drink. For an extra twist, try infusing the soda water with fresh herbs like mint or basil.

Cucumber Tonic Water

Cucumber tonic water adds a crisp and clean taste to your vodka cocktails. The cool, vegetal notes of cucumber pair excellently with the subtle saltiness of our Mermaid Salt Vodka, creating a refreshing and sophisticated drink. Serve it over ice with a slice of cucumber and a sprig of fresh basil for an elegant presentation.

Apple Juice

Apple juice is a delightful mixer that brings a crisp, sweet, and slightly tart flavour to vodka cocktails. When paired with our vodka, the natural sweetness of apple juice balances with the sharpness of our vodka, creating a well-rounded and refreshing drink. This combination is perfect for autumn-inspired cocktails, but its light and fruity profile makes it enjoyable year-round. To elevate the experience, add a dash of cinnamon or a squeeze of lemon juice for an extra layer of complexity. Serve it over ice and garnish with a slice of apple or a cinnamon stick for a visually appealing and flavorful cocktail that’s sure to impress.
