🥃 Sobieski Raspberry
Raspberry-flavoured vodka from the Sobieski brand on a rye base.
Sobieski Raspberry is a raspberry-flavoured vodka from the Sobieski brand with the taste of fresh raspberry. The brand's official website lists it among the five permanent flavoured Sobieski vodkas, alongside grapefruit, vanilla, orange and lemon. The strength is not stated there, so check the label for your market.
According to a 2015 Prepared Foods article, the raspberry version, like the other flavoured ones, is made on the brand's rye vodka base with natural flavourings. The authors describe a fresh berry taste with a sweet raspberry finish. The official website suggests a ginger beer cocktail for it.
Why this matters to you. Raspberry vodka is sweeter and fruitier than the classic Sobieski Clear Vodka, so people use it in fruity cocktails. If you want another sweet note, compare Sobieski Vanilla, and among other brands, Absolut Raspberri. In the EU a flavoured vodka must be at least 37.5% ABV, so the strength can differ between markets. The WHO reminds us: there is no safe level of alcohol consumption.
