Jack In The Box
Cocktail recipe

Rating

3.8 / 5
The "Jack In The Box" cocktail is a refreshing and fruity blend that caters to those with a sweet tooth. It combines the clear, clean taste of vodka with the sweet and aromatic peach schnapps, creating a delightful base. The addition of Stiffy Kola Kubez, presumably a cola-flavored liqueur, introduces a playful twist of nostalgic candy-like flavors. This blend is topped off with a generous amount of lemonade, which cuts through the sweetness and adds a bubbly, citrusy freshness to the mix. Served in a pint glass, the Jack In The Box cocktail offers a substantial volume for sipping and socializing, and its light and fruity flavor profile makes it a suitable choice for a casual get-together or a summer party.
