Lemon-flavored vodka

Lemon-flavored vodka is a distilled alcoholic beverage that has been infused with natural or artificial lemon essences, providing a citrusy and refreshing touch ideal for preparing cocktails and mixed drinks. Its base is traditional vodka, known for its neutral taste and high purity, to which lemon aroma and flavor are added to enhance and provide a fresh note.

Vodka originates from Eastern Europe, specifically from countries like Russia and Poland, but the lemon-flavored version became popular globally, especially in the modern cocktail industry, where it is used to provide a citrus profile without adding solid ingredients or fresh juice.

Properties: Lemon-flavored vodka retains the properties of standard vodka: it is a high-proof alcoholic beverage (usually between 35% and 40% alcohol by volume), with low sugar content and no carbohydrates, making it suitable for low-calorie cocktails. The lemon flavor does not alter its ability to mix well with other ingredients, providing freshness and a tangy touch.

Synonyms in Latin American Spanish: In some countries, although there is no specific word for this beverage, it may be referred to as vodka sabor limón, vodka limón, or simply vodka con limón. It is important not to confuse it with "licor de limón" or "limoncello," which are distinct beverages with different bases and processes.
