Hammered
Cocktail recipe

Rating

3.66 / 5
The cocktail named Hammered is a high-powered, complex mix that features a bold and eclectic array of spirits and mixers. With a base of lager and champagne, it strikes a unique balance of effervescence and depth. The addition of apple and pineapple liqueurs introduces a fruity sweetness, while the spiced rum and vodka add warmth and kick to the overall flavor. An unusual touch comes from the WKD blue, a vibrant, fruit-flavored alcoholic beverage, adding both color and a sugary twist. The sharp anise flavor of Sambuca gives this cocktail a distinctive edge, and it is all mellowed out with a splash of lemonade, offering a refreshing citrus note to the mix. Served in a pitcher glass, Hammered incorporates a range of taste sensations, from fruity to spicy, catering to those with adventurous palates looking for a potent party drink.

FAQ's

Ingredient substitutions icon

Can I substitute any ingredients in the Hammered cocktail if I don't have everything listed?

Yes, the Hammered cocktail is versatile when it comes to substitutions. If you don't have a specific type of liqueur, feel free to use another fruity liqueur that you have on hand. The same goes for the vodka and rum; any type will do. As for the champagne or prosecco, any sparkling wine can substitute. Just keep the flavor profile balanced between sweet, sour, and alcoholic components.

Preparation techniques icon

How should I prepare the Hammered cocktail given that it’s neither shaken nor stirred?

To prepare the Hammered cocktail, start by adding ice to your pitcher glass to chill it. Pour in all the ingredients directly over the ice in the order listed or as you prefer. Use a long spoon or a bar stirrer to gently mix or layer the ingredients together without vigorous shaking or stirring. This method helps to combine the flavors while maintaining the integrity of the carbonated ingredients like champagne and lemonade.

Serving suggestions icon

What is the best way to serve the Hammered cocktail to my guests?

The Hammered cocktail is best served cold, directly from a pitcher glass. Since it has a variety of ingredients, including carbonated ones, consider serving it in large glasses filled with ice to keep it chilled. You can also garnish each glass with a slice of lemon or a cherry for an added touch. Serve immediately after preparation to ensure the fizz from the champagne and lemonade remains vibrant.

What occasions are most suitable for serving the Hammered cocktail?

Given its name and potent mix of ingredients, the Hammered cocktail is most suitable for casual gatherings, parties, or celebrations where the aim is a fun and relaxed atmosphere. It's a great choice for summer barbecues, birthday parties, or any event where guests are looking to enjoy a unique and strong cocktail in a social setting.
