You’ll quickly grow to appreciate this mixed drink as your go-to because it’s light, refreshing, and provides a pleasant buzz. Although it makes for a great cocktail on its own, you may be wondering what other drinks pair well with this flavored vodka. No worries, I’ve also covered some fantastic variations in this article. 

Pink Whitney Drink Origin

This mixed drink was inspired by a product sold by New Amsterdam Vodka. One of the Spittin’ Chiclets Podcast hosts, “Ryan Whitney,” inspired the drink’s name. Ryan used to play in the National Hockey League, and his podcast is currently massively successful.

The Pink Whitney, a vodka and pink lemonade cocktail developed by New Amsterdam’s Ryan, is available in a bottle.

Ingredients you’ll need

One of my favorite vodka cocktails is this Pink Whitney, which only calls for two main ingredients. In addition to those two main ingredients, I prefer to include a couple more for both flavor and presentation.

These are the ingredients you’ll need to prepare it:

• 1-2 oz. Vodka (adjust how strong you like it)
• 6 oz. Pink Lemonade
• 2-3 Ice Cubes
• Just a splash of Lemon Juice
• Dried lemons or lemon wedges to garnish

Make this cocktail with whatever vodka and pink lemonade you choose now! Pink Whitneys may be made using a variety of refreshing and tasty ingredients. Also, if you’re looking to shake things up, try some of the variants I’ve included below.

Step 1: Drink Preparation

Get a cocktail shaker or other big cup with a lid ready.

Add some lemon juice on the top and shake it up to incorporate everything.

Step 2: Serve

Fill a glass with 2-3 ice cubes and pour your Pink Whitney cocktail into it once it’s ready. Add some lemon wedges or dried lemons to garnish, and finish them with a stirring straw.

You can mix two cocktails at once with this recipe, so another one will be waiting for you after the first one is gone.

The greatest thing is that it only takes a few seconds to make more of them if you want to make one as a gift or need to make a few more for yourself or a friend. Enjoy!

Pink Whitney Variation Mixes

To elevate your next cocktail experience, I have compiled a complete list of mixes that go well with Pink Whitney.

Pink Whitney Sprite

Carbonated beverages like Sprite pair well with vodkas, making them a fantastic addition to the Pink Whitney. When combined, the vodka’s lemon taste in Pink Whitney and Sprite’s citrus notes shine through.

Pink Whitney and Sprite can be combined to form a slushie or poured over ice to make a cocktail.

Pink Whitney Pineapple Juice

Although cocktails made with pineapple vodka are not uncommon, even the most basic of cocktails may be transformed with the addition of Pink Whitney.

The Pink Whitney, a combination of pineapple juice and lemonade with a splash of vodka, strikes the ideal balance between fruity sweetness and tart sharpness.

Pink Whitney Limeaid

Limeaid is a beverage flavored with lime juice or lime concentrate. Like lemonade, it’s produced by squeezing lemons and sugar into water, but limeade has a sweet and sour flavor.

Limeaid’s balanced sourness, sweetness, and tang make it an ideal companion for the Pink Whitney.

Other Variations

• Add Sprite and Cranberry Juice 
• Add Iced Tea
• Combine half Vodka and half J.M Blanc Rum
• Add a splash of Tonic Water
• Add a splash of Orange Juice
• Add a splash of Strawberry juice
