FAQ's
What is the best way to serve a Hairy Buffalo?
The Hairy Buffalo is served in a shot glass, indicating it's best enjoyed as a quick, potent drink rather than sipped slowly. Since it's served cold, you might want to chill the shot glasses in the freezer beforehand to enhance the coldness of the drink.
Can I substitute the whiskey or tequila in a Hairy Buffalo?
Yes, you can substitute either the whiskey or tequila to suit your taste or based on what you have available. Consider using rum or vodka if you prefer a different flavor profile. The taste will change, but the essence of the cocktail will remain strong and bold.
How does the alcohol content in a Hairy Buffalo compare to other cocktails?
With an alcohol content of 40%, the Hairy Buffalo is on the higher end of the spectrum compared to many other cocktails. It's significantly stronger than most standard mixed drinks or cocktails, which typically range between 10% to 20% alcohol by volume (ABV).
Should the Hairy Buffalo be shaken or stirred before serving?
The Hairy Buffalo does not require shaking or stirring before serving. Its preparation involves directly combining the ingredients in the shot glass. However, ensuring the ingredients are well-chilled before serving can improve the drinking experience.
What occasions are best suited for serving a Hairy Buffalo?
Given its strong alcohol content and bold flavor from the whiskey, tequila, and Tabasco sauce, the Hairy Buffalo is best suited for lively, adult gatherings where participants are looking for a potent, quick drink. It might be especially popular at parties, celebrations, or as a daring novelty shot in bars.
