Difficulty

The Berry Fizz takes just a few minutes to mix and doesn’t require a shaker. Gently press the berries directly into the glass to release their juice, color, and aroma.

 

  1. Prepare the berries
    Place the fresh berries in a glass and lightly crush them with a bar spoon or muddler. Do not blend completely – some whole berries should remain visible in the drink.
  2. Add vodka, lemon and elderflower
    Add EXACT vodka, lemon juice and elderflower syrup to the berries in the glass.
  3. Add ice
    Fill the glass generously with ice cubes.
  4. Refill
    Top up with well-chilled soda or tonic water.
  5. Stir carefully
    Stir the Berry Fizz briefly and carefully to ensure the berries, vodka, lemon and elderflower are evenly combined.
  6. Garnish & Serve
    Garnish with fresh berries and, if desired, a little mint or a slice of lemon, then serve immediately.

 

EXAKT Tip: Raspberries add a lot of color and a slightly tart, fruity flavor to the drink, while blueberries have a milder taste. Adding soda water keeps the Berry Fizz lighter and fresher, while tonic water makes it a bit more tart and aromatic.

 

Here’s what it tastes like
Fruity, fresh, and delicately effervescent: the berries add natural fruitiness, lemon provides freshness, and elderflower adds a subtle sweetness. EXAKT Vodka keeps the drink clean and balanced, while soda or tonic water gives it a zesty finish.

Recipe story

Berry Fizz – a modern vodka drink with classic roots

The Berry Fizz is a modern take on a time-honored cocktail category. Fizz drinks originated as early as the 19th century and typically combine a spirit with citrus juice, sweetener, and carbonated water. The first printed fizz recipes can be found in Jerry Thomas’s famous *Bartender’s Guide* from 1876. Liquor.com

While the classic Gin Fizz is made with gin, lemon, sugar, and soda water, our version features EXAKT Vodka, fresh berries, and elderflower. The berries add extra fruitiness and color to the glass, while the elderflower syrup balances out the lemon’s tartness.

The Berry Fizz is therefore simple enough to make at home, yet it’s also a drink that looks impressive. Its character changes depending on the type of berry used: raspberries add a stronger fruitiness, while blueberries provide a milder note. Soda water keeps it light and fresh, while tonic water gives it a slightly more tart finish.

Served well chilled with plenty of ice, the Berry Fizz is perfect for summer evenings, garden parties, and any occasion that calls for something fruity and simple.
