Product details
Żubrówka ŻU Lime & Mint is a hemp-flavoured lime and mint liqueur from Poland, part of the Żubrówka ŻU line, bottled at 25% ABV in a 50cl bottle. Its Polish name is Limonka z Miętą, "lime with mint". The hemp brings a green, grassy note reminiscent of hemp seeds and fresh leaves, which gives the familiar lime and mint pairing a herbal twist. This hemp liqueur is light and refreshing, suited to summer afternoons, garden gatherings and long drinks with plenty of ice.
Żubrówka ŻU Lime & Mint tasting notes
- Nose: Lime zest, spearmint and a green, grassy herbal note.
- Palate: Fresh and zesty, with sweet lime, cooling mint and light herbs.
- Finish: Clean and brisk, with a lingering mint freshness.
How to drink Żubrówka ŻU Lime & Mint
Serve it straight from the fridge, neat in a small glass or over ice with a lime wedge. Fresh, zesty food suits it best: grilled fish, fish tacos, a herby couscous salad or summer salads with feta. Lengthened with soda or lemonade, it makes an easy drink for barbecues and warm evenings.
What to mix with Żubrówka ŻU Lime & Mint
Light mixers keep the lime and mint at the front.
- Lime & Mint Smash: add 50 ml to a tall glass of crushed ice with a few mint leaves and two lime wedges, then top with 100 ml soda water and stir.
- Lime & Mint Lemonade: pour 40 ml Żubrówka ŻU Lime & Mint over ice and top with 120 ml sparkling lemonade and a lime wheel.
How it compares
At 25%, Lime & Mint is lighter than Żubrówka ŻU Fresh Mint and Żubrówka Ice Bomb, and it is more citrusy and herbal than either. Its ŻU hemp sibling, Żubrówka ŻU Watermelon & Lime, is fruitier and sweeter. Lubelska Hemp with Lime & Mint follows a similar idea but adds lemon and grapefruit and ends on a peppery note.
