Cîroc Honey Melon is a limited edition expression from the house that made grape based vodka famous in the United States. Unlike most vodkas, which are distilled from grain, Cîroc is made from fine French grapes — specifically Mauzac Blanc and Ugni Blanc grapes harvested in the south of France — and distilled five times in copper pot stills. That grape based foundation gives Cîroc a naturally smoother, slightly more aromatic character than standard grain vodkas, which serves as the ideal canvas for the Honey Melon flavor infusion.
Honey Melon combines the brand's signature French grape vodka base with natural melon, honey, and other natural flavors, resulting in a sweet, juicy, and refreshing limited edition expression. The vivid green bottle with its gold signature sphere is as eye catching on the shelf as it is behind a bar. Perfect for summer cocktails, fresh fruit spritzers, and vibrant mixed drinks. Bottled at 35% ABV (70 proof).

FAQ
What makes Cîroc different from other vodkas?
Most vodkas are made from grain or potatoes. Cîroc is distilled entirely from French grapes — Mauzac Blanc and Ugni Blanc — harvested in the south of France and distilled five times in copper pot stills. The grape base gives the vodka a naturally smoother texture and a subtly more aromatic, fruity character that makes it an excellent platform for flavor infusions like Honey Melon.
How should I use Cîroc Honey Melon?
It is versatile and refreshing — great on its own over ice, mixed with lemonade, ginger beer, or sparkling water, or as the base of a summer spritzer or frozen drink. The honey and melon profile also pairs well with fresh mint, cucumber, and citrus in creative cocktails.
