What ingredients are in a Raspberry Cooler?

A Raspberry Cooler is made with raspberry-infused vodka and lemon-lime soda served over ice in a highball glass. The raspberry vodka provides both the alcoholic base and the primary berry flavour, while the soda adds effervescence and a bright citrus note.

How is a Raspberry Cooler served?

The drink is built directly in a highball glass filled with ice. Pour the raspberry vodka over the ice first, then top with chilled lemon-lime soda and give a gentle stir to combine without losing carbonation.

What is the approximate ABV of a Raspberry Cooler?

A typical Raspberry Cooler has an ABV of around 8–12%, depending on the ratio of vodka to soda. Using a standard 1.5 oz pour of 40% vodka topped with 4–5 oz of soda brings the finished drink to roughly 10% alcohol by volume.

Raspberry vodka carries both the spirit and the dominant flavour of the Raspberry Cooler, a highball that needs only the addition of lemon-lime soda over ice to come together. The berry-infused vodka sets a sweet, fruit-forward tone, while the soda contributes effervescence and a citrus lift that keeps the drink lively rather than cloying. Poured into a highball glass nearly filled with ice cubes and given a quick stir, it asks almost nothing of the maker. At around 8 percent alcohol by volume and under 180 calories, it functions as an easygoing party drink whose appeal rests on bright fruit and fizz rather than complexity or technique.

History & Origins

Raspberry Cooler is a modern American cocktail that belongs to the category of flavoured vodka highballs that proliferated in the 1990s and 2000s alongside the explosive growth of flavoured vodka as a category in the American spirits market. Raspberry vodka — particularly from brands such as Absolut and Stolichnaya — became a staple ingredient in sweet fruit cocktails during this era. No specific creator is credited.

Tasting Notes

Aroma: Sweet, fresh raspberry from the infused vodka with a lemon-lime citrus note from the soda. Palate: Light and sweet with a dominant raspberry character from the vodka, the lemon-lime soda providing effervescence and a citrus brightness that stops the drink from becoming cloying. Finish: Clean and fruity with a lingering raspberry sweetness and a gentle citrus fade.

Pro Tip

Pour the raspberry vodka over ice first and then top with the lemon-lime soda in a gentle pour down the side of the glass to preserve carbonation and avoid excessive fizzing.
