FAQ's

Preparation techniques icon

How do you properly combine the ingredients for a Frisbee cocktail?

To prepare a Frisbee cocktail, start by chilling your cocktail glass in the freezer. Then, in a shaker filled with ice, combine 30ml of peach schnapps, 30ml of blackcurrant juice, and 60ml of cider. Shake the mixture well to ensure it's thoroughly chilled. After shaking, strain the mix into your chilled cocktail glass and top it up with lager. The key is to shake the ingredients except the lager to blend the flavors without making the cocktail too fizzy before topping it up.

Ingredient substitutions icon

Can I use another type of juice instead of blackcurrant juice in a Frisbee cocktail?

Yes, you can substitute blackcurrant juice with another type of dark berry juice if blackcurrant is not available. Choices like blueberry, cranberry, or raspberry juice can work well and offer a similar depth of flavor and color, though the taste profile will slightly change depending on the juice selected.

Serving suggestions icon

What is the best way to serve a Frisbee cocktail for a party?

For serving a Frisbee cocktail at a party, consider using a large pitcher or punch bowl. Prepare the cocktail mix in bulk, following the recipe ratios, and chill it ahead of time. When it's time to serve, fill individual cocktail glasses with ice, pour the chilled mix over the ice, and top each glass with lager. This method allows for easy serving and ensures the cocktail remains fresh and fizzy for each guest.

Alcohol content comparison icon

How does the alcohol content in a Frisbee compare to a standard beer?

The Frisbee cocktail has an alcohol content of around 6%, which places it in the same range as many craft beers and slightly higher than some standard light lagers, which typically range between 4-5%. However, the presence of peach schnapps and the combination with cider may make the Frisbee feel lighter despite its similar alcohol content.

Dietary considerations icon

Is the Frisbee cocktail suitable for vegetarians or vegans?

The Frisbee cocktail, consisting of peach schnapps, blackcurrant juice, cider, and lager, is generally suitable for vegetarians. However, vegans should check the specifics of the lager and cider used, as some brands may utilize animal-derived products in processing or clarifying. Always consult the manufacturer's details or look for vegan-certified labels to ensure compatibility with vegan dietary restrictions.
