Which Cutwater flavors does CBC Liquors have?

If you are after a flavor that is not on the page, ask us at the counter. We can tell you what is on the shelf and what we can look into for you.

What does each flavor taste like?

Descriptions below are about the cocktail styles in general, so the exact taste of a can will vary by recipe.

A margarita is built on citrus and a salty-sweet balance, and the mango version adds a tropical, fruit-forward note. A Moscow mule style drink pairs vodka with ginger and lime, so expect a crisp, slightly spicy finish. A lemon drop martini is sweet and tart, a lemony drink that leans bright.

An espresso martini combines vodka with coffee, giving a roasted, slightly bittersweet flavor. The chocolate espresso takes that coffee idea in a dessert direction, and a drink like this tends to suit the end of a meal more than the start.

Are Cutwater drinks ready to drink?

Yes. Cutwater sits in our ready-to-drink section, which means the cocktail comes mixed in the can. You do not need a shaker, ice-heavy prep or a recipe. Chill it, open it and pour it over ice or into a glass if you like.

That makes the cans easy to bring to a cookout, a boat day or a backyard get-together where nobody wants to stand behind a bar. If you want to build your own cocktails instead, our mixers and vodka selections cover that route.

Which flavor suits which occasion?

For a warm afternoon outside, the Mango Margarita and Vodka Mule are the easy picks because they are fruity and refreshing when cold. They go well with grilled food, tacos or chips and salsa.

The Lemondrop Martini works as a lighter, sweeter option for a get-together, and it chills well. The Espresso Martini and Chocolate Espresso suit evenings and dessert tables, and a can can stand in for a coffee-and-cocktail course after dinner.

If you are hosting and cannot decide, the Red White & Blue Cocktail Pack is a simple way to offer a few flavors. Our party planner page can help you think through quantities for a gathering. Please plan for guests to drink responsibly and have rides arranged.

How do you serve Cutwater cocktails?

Serve them cold. Keep cans in the fridge or on ice for a while before opening, since a warm cocktail tastes flat and overly sweet.

The margarita and mule are good over ice, and a lime wedge suits both. The lemon drop is nice in a chilled glass, perhaps with a lemon twist. The espresso drinks are best very cold, poured into a glass if you want the full effect.

Once a can is open, finish it that day. Unopened cans keep best stored cool and out of direct sunlight.
