About Absolut Citron
Absolut Citron is a premium lemon-flavored vodka produced by Pernod Ricard USA, with 40% ABV (80 proof), offering a vibrant burst of freshly squeezed sun-ripened lemon notes in a smooth, refreshing profile. Launched in 1988, it quickly became the brand's best-selling flavored vodka due to its authentic citrus character derived from natural lemon flavors, winter wheat, and pure well water from Åhus, Sweden, without added sugars. What makes it special is its versatility—perfect for sipping on the rocks or elevating cocktails like the iconic Cosmopolitan—while maintaining a clean, balanced taste that stands out in the flavored vodka category. Ideal for citrus lovers, cocktail enthusiasts, and those seeking a zesty summer vibe, it compares favorably to competitors with its high-quality distillation, award-winning profile (94 points from Tastings.com), and harmonious lemon-lime-peel blend, often praised for smoothness over artificial sweetness. Available in 750ml ($13.49), 1000ml, and 1750ml sizes, it delivers exceptional value.
