Originally I called this drink the Amaretto Kicker, but after two of the clients in my bar drank it and fell under my mind control, I changed the name.

FAQ's
What is the ideal way to serve a Jedi Mind Trick?
The Jedi Mind Trick is best served in a highball glass, cold but not shaken or stirred. Since it's topped up with cola, ensuring it's served cold enhances the refreshing nature of the cocktail. Adding ice to the glass before pouring in the ingredients can help keep it chilled.
Can I substitute anything for amaretto in a Jedi Mind Trick?
Yes, if amaretto isn't to your taste or you don't have it on hand, you can substitute it with a similar nut-flavored liqueur, like Frangelico, to maintain the nutty profile. Keep in mind this may slightly alter the original taste of the cocktail.
How does the alcohol content of a Jedi Mind Trick compare to other cocktails?
With a 7.4% alcohol content, the Jedi Mind Trick is relatively moderate in strength compared to other cocktails. It's stronger than light cocktails like a shandy or spritz but weaker than high-proof concoctions like martinis or Manhattans.
What are some variations to customize the Jedi Mind Trick for different tastes?
To customize the Jedi Mind Trick, consider playing with the proportions of vodka and amaretto to adjust the sweetness and strength. Adding a splash of lemon or lime juice can introduce a tangy twist. For a spicier version, a dash of ginger syrup or a cinnamon stick garnish could offer an intriguing flavor profile.
What occasions are most suitable for serving the Jedi Mind Trick?
Given its moderate alcohol content and refreshing nature, the Jedi Mind Trick is an excellent choice for casual gatherings, movie nights, or themed parties, especially for fans of the Star Wars franchise. It's a conversational piece that can suit a variety of events, from summer barbecues to cozy winter get-togethers.
