Review: Canteen Ruby Red Vodka Soda

by Jeff Ellingson

Canteen Ruby Red Vodka Soda is one of 7 vodka soda’s made in Austin Texas at Canteen Spirits.  Industry veterans Brandon Cason, Daniel Barnes, and Caroline Fabacher launched the brand in 2019.  They have since released Cantina Tequila Soda, and Canteen Gin Spritz.  Canteen Vodka Soda is sold in 2 different 3 flavor 6 can variety packs and in 4 can single flavor packs.  Their Classic Variety pack includes Watermelon, Black Cherry, and Lime.  The Canteen Tropical Variety Pack has 2 cans each of Strawberry, Pineapple, and Lime.  Canteen Cucumber Mint and Ruby Red are only available in single flavor 4 packs.  Each 12 ounce can is made from real vodka, sparkling water, and natural flavors weighing in with 99 calories, 5% alcohol, 0 sugar, and 0 carbs.  The aroma leads with fresh peel ruby red grapefruit.  The sweet juicy grapefruit entry builds to a tart ruby red grapefruit peak.  It fades with sweet grapefruit and finishes clean with whole grapefruit, subtle vodka, and club soda.  Noticeably missing is carbon seltzer on the finish.
