Deep Eddy Lime Vodka

Lime is the newest of Deep Eddy's core flavors and, per Wooden Cork, the most cocktail-versatile — because lime goes into almost every vodka drink anyway. Deep Eddy is named for the oldest swimming hole in Austin, Texas, founded in 2010 by Clayton Christopher of Sweet Leaf Tea and Chad Auler of Savvy Vodka, and now part of Heaven Hill. The base is 100% corn vodka, column-distilled ten times in a 20-foot still and charcoal-filtered at the Dripping Springs distillery; this expression blends it with real lime juice and a light touch of pure cane sugar, bottled at 35% ABV (70 proof). Naturally gluten-free. Expect a fresh, sharp nose of just-squeezed lime, opening into a palate that's tart and bright with only enough sweetness to round the edges, the corn vodka soft underneath, finishing crisp and clean. Honest note: it's a flavored vodka with real sugar, and purists should reach for the original — but this is the flavor that makes the simplest drinks better without changing what they are. The serve is Lime and club soda over ice — a vodka soda that needs no wedge — or Lime and ginger beer for an instant Mule. Also a vodka Gimlet straight from the bottle, a Lime Rickey, a Ranch Water-style highball with Topo Chico, or a Margarita riff with agave. Texas lime, in the bottle already.
