FAQ's
What makes Black Sambuca unique in the Frisky Witch cocktail?
Black Sambuca is a variant of Sambuca flavored with witch elder bush and licorice, giving it a distinctly deep and rich aniseed flavor. In the Frisky Witch cocktail, it creates a unique blend with vodka, offering a powerful licorice taste that complements the neutral spirit of the vodka, resulting in a bold and memorable shot.
What is the ideal way to serve a Frisky Witch?
The Frisky Witch is best served in a shot glass, chilled but not diluted with ice. This method preserves its strong, rich flavors and ensures the cocktail is enjoyed at its most potent. Serving it cold enhances the smoothness of both the vodka and the Black Sambuca, making it a perfect quick-sipping experience.

With an alcohol content of 39%, the Frisky Witch is on the higher end of the spectrum for shot drinks, making it stronger than many other popular shots which typically range from 30% to 40% alcohol by volume. Its potent combination of vodka and Black Sambuca makes it a powerful choice for those seeking a high-alcohol content shot.
Can any ingredients be added to the Frisky Witch to modify or enhance its flavor?
Yes, to customize the Frisky Witch, consider adding a splash of lime juice for a citrusy zing or a few drops of grenadine for a sweet contrast. These additions can soften the strong licorice notes of the Black Sambuca and introduce a new dimension to the drink's flavor profile.
What types of food pair well with the Frisky Witch?
The Frisky Witch, with its strong licorice flavor from the Black Sambuca, pairs well with savory appetizers or salty snacks. Consider serving it with cheese boards, charcuterie, or salty nuts. These foods can balance the sweetness of the sambuca and cleanse the palate between sips.
