Touch Key Lime: Where to Buy & How to Enjoy It
2026-06-20T15:02:00.630Z · Touch Editorial
You already know what you want. That bright, tart, unmistakably Florida flavor in a bottle. Now you just need to know where to get it.
Here's everything you need to find, buy, and enjoy Touch Key Lime — the small-batch vodka that tastes like a slice of the Gulf Coast.
TOUCH KEY LIME at a glance
Touch Key Lime is part of the Touch Vodka lineup, crafted in Tampa, Florida since 2012. Every bottle goes through 10 rounds of distillation. The result? A vodka that's impossibly smooth with a natural key lime character — bright, citrusy, and clean on the finish.
It comes in at 80 proof. It's bold enough to sip. Versatile enough to mix. And distinctly Florida from the very first pour.
Where to find it near you
Touch Key Lime is available at select retailers across Florida and beyond.
Your best first moves:
- Check your local liquor store. Ask specifically for Touch Vodka by name. Many independent bottle shops that carry craft or Florida-made spirits stock the lineup.
- Visit a Tampa-area retailer. As a Tampa-born brand, Touch has strong local presence throughout the Bay Area. If you're in the region, specialty spirits retailers are your best bet.
- Use the store locator. Head to the Touch Vodka website and use the locator tool to find the nearest retailer carrying Touch Key Lime in your zip code.
Can't find it on the shelf? Ask your local store to order it. Most retailers can bring in specialty bottles with enough demand — and you just created some.
Order online & shipping
Online is often the fastest, easiest route — especially outside of Florida.
Here's how to shop smart:
- Order direct. The Touch Vodka website offers the most up-to-date availability. Tap the Shop Touch Key Lime button and you'll land right on the product page.
- Third-party spirits retailers. Sites like Drizly, ReserveBar, and Total Wine's online platform often carry craft Florida spirits. Search "Touch Key Lime vodka" to check current stock.
- Shipping rules matter. Alcohol shipping laws vary by state. Florida-to-Florida ships easily. If you're out of state, check what's available through licensed third-party retailers in your area.
Pro tip: Buying a bottle or two? Check if bundling with another Touch expression qualifies for free or reduced shipping.
What to make with it first
So the bottle just landed. Now what?
Touch Key Lime is a natural for cocktails that lean citrusy, tropical, or refreshingly cold. Here are three ways to pour it immediately:
1. Key Lime Mule Touch Key Lime + ginger beer + fresh lime juice + ice. Serve in a copper mug. Done in two minutes. Dangerously drinkable.
2. Key Lime Spritz Touch Key Lime + soda water + a splash of pineapple juice + mint. Light, bright, and built for a Tampa patio.
3. The Straight Chill Pour Touch Key Lime over ice. Add a squeeze of fresh lime. That's it. Let the 10x distillation do the work.
The spirit is smooth enough to not need much. That's the point of small-batch craft.
When can you buy key limes?
Great question — and worth addressing even if you're shopping for the vodka, not the fruit.
Key limes, the small, tart citrus variety native to the Florida Keys and tropical regions, are generally available year-round in grocery stores across the U.S. thanks to imports from Mexico and Central America. Fresh domestic key limes peak in summer through early fall. If you're making cocktails with the real deal alongside your Touch Key Lime vodka, summer is prime time to find them at their freshest and most affordable.
Can you still get key limes?
Yes — absolutely. Despite occasional supply chain fluctuations, key limes remain widely available both fresh and bottled as juice. Most grocery stores carry bottled key lime juice year-round (Nellie & Joe's is a popular brand). Fresh key limes show up in the produce section at Whole Foods, Publix, and specialty grocers consistently.
For cocktail purposes, freshly squeezed is always the move when you can get it. But a good bottled key lime juice works perfectly in a pinch, especially for high-volume entertaining.
What is another name for key lime?
Key lime (Citrus aurantiifolia) goes by a few other names depending on where in the world you are. You might also see it called:
- Mexican lime — the most common alternate name in the U.S. and widely used in culinary contexts
- West Indian lime — used throughout the Caribbean and parts of South America
- Bartender's lime — informal, but you'll hear it in craft cocktail circles because of the fruit's intensely aromatic juice
Whatever you call it, the flavor profile is the same: sharper, more floral, and more aromatic than a Persian lime. That distinctive character is exactly what makes Touch Key Lime's flavor so recognizable — tart, fragrant, unmistakably tropical.
Touch Vodka is crafted for adults 21 and older. Please drink responsibly and never drink and drive.
