3.96 / 5
The Ketan cocktail is a mixed drink that combines the robustness of whiskey with the clean, neutral profile of vodka, balanced with the tangy zest of lemon and the sweetness of lemonade. It is typically served in a cocktail glass, presenting a refreshing mix of flavors that can appeal to those who enjoy a drink that is both spirited and slightly sweet with a citrus note. The Ketan is a relatively simple cocktail but with a two-spirit base, it offers complexity, lending itself to being both a summery refreshment and a bold choice for whiskey enthusiasts.
