Which cocktail uses vodka, tonic, and lime?

• A. Vodka Tonic
• B. Cape Cod
• C. Fuzzy Navel
• D. Screw Driver

Answer: (B)

The key idea is recognizing common mixers and how they define a cocktail. A drink that uses vodka with tonic water and a lime provides the crisp, bitter-sweet profile of a Vodka Tonic, with lime adding brightness either as a squeeze or garnish. The Cape Cod mixes vodka with cranberry juice and typically a lime, but it does not include tonic. The Fuzzy Navel pairs peach schnapps with orange juice, not vodka with tonic. The Screwdriver mixes vodka with orange juice, again without tonic. So the cocktail that truly combines vodka, tonic, and lime is Vodka Tonic.
