Cocktail Colin says:
Do Maja is a sophisticated dessert cocktail blending Bailey's, Brandy, and Amaretto for an indulgently smooth experience. Its layers of creaminess, nutty sweetness, and a hint of boldness make it a rich and complex choice for an evening treat.

FAQ's
Can I substitute any ingredients in the Do Maja cocktail if I don't have them on hand?
Yes, you can substitute ingredients in the Do Maja cocktail. If you don't have Bailey's, you can use another type of Irish Cream. For Brandy, a cognac or an Armagnac could work well as a substitute. If Amaretto is not available, you could try using a different nut-flavored liqueur, though this will change the flavor profile.
What is the recommended way to serve the Do Maja cocktail?
The Do Maja cocktail is recommended to be served cold in a highball glass. You can achieve this by chilling the glass ahead of time or by mixing the ingredients over ice before serving. It's not shaken or stirred, so gently pouring the ingredients over ice in the glass would be ideal.
How does the alcohol content in the Do Maja compare to other classic cocktails?
The Do Maja cocktail has an alcohol content of 28.33%, which places it in the mid to high range compared to other classic cocktails. For instance, it’s higher in alcohol content than a Margarita (around 26%) but lower than a classic Martini (around 32%).
What occasions are best suited for serving the Do Maja cocktail?
Given its rich and sweet flavor profile, the Do Maja cocktail is well-suited for after-dinner drinks or small gatherings where cocktails serve as a conversational centerpiece. It can also be a delightful choice for holiday parties or casual evenings at home.
Are there any popular customization ideas for the Do Maja cocktail?
