White Claw Premium Original Vodka 70cl / 40%

White Claw Premium Original Vodka is an unflavoured vodka from White Claw, bottled at 40% ABV in a 70cl bottle. Unlike the brand's fruit vodkas, it carries no added flavour and is made to taste very clean with a soft finish. White Claw presents it as a modern take on vodka, ready to sip over ice, mix with soda or pair with a can of White Claw Hard Seltzer. It suits people who want to control the flavour of their drinks themselves and like a light, neutral spirit.

White Claw Original tasting notes

• Nose: Clean and faintly sweet, with a hint of citrus.
• Palate: Light and pure, with a soft, rounded texture.
• Finish: Smooth and short, with a crisp, dry close.

How to drink White Claw Original

Keep the bottle in the freezer and serve it neat in a small chilled glass, or over ice with a squeeze of lime. Its neutral character makes it easy to pair with salted crisps, olives, sushi and grilled fish. For gatherings, it is a practical bottle to set out beside a range of mixers so each guest can build a drink to taste.

White Claw Original cocktails

• Vodka Lime Soda: 50 ml over ice in a highball glass, topped with 150 ml soda water and a squeeze of lime.
• Seltzer Splash: 25 ml over ice in a tall glass, topped with a chilled can of your favourite White Claw Hard Seltzer.
• French Martini: 40 ml vodka, 15 ml raspberry liqueur and 50 ml pineapple juice shaken with ice and strained into a chilled coupe.

How it compares

Original is the unflavoured White Claw vodka, bottled at 40%, while White Claw Black Cherry Vodka and White Claw Pineapple Vodka are flavoured and bottled at 30%. As a plain vodka it behaves like a classic mixing spirit, so choose it when you want the drink, not the bottle, to set the flavour.
