FAQ's
How does the alcohol content of Blue Horizon compare to other cocktails?
The Blue Horizon cocktail has an alcohol content of 26.13%, which is relatively high compared to many classic cocktails. For example, a Margarita typically has an alcohol content around 14%, and a Cosmopolitan around 20%. Therefore, Blue Horizon is on the stronger side, appealing more to those who prefer a potent shot.
What is the best way to serve a Blue Horizon?
Blue Horizon is best served cold in a shot glass. Given its potent nature and relatively small volume (31ml), it is intended to be enjoyed as a quick, powerful drink rather than sipped slowly. Chilling the ingredients beforehand can enhance the experience.
Can you tell me more about Aftershock (Blue) and Aftershock (Red) used in Blue Horizon?
Aftershock is a family of flavored liqueurs known for their vibrant colors and unique taste. The Blue Aftershock typically has a cool, minty flavor, while the Red Aftershock offers a cinnamon spice taste. Their strong, distinctive flavors play a critical role in the character of the Blue Horizon, contributing to its bold and intense taste profile.
How can I customize the Blue Horizon cocktail to my taste?
The Blue Horizon cocktail can be customized by adjusting the ratios of Peach Schnapps, Aftershock (Blue), and Aftershock (Red) based on your preference for sweetness or spice. Additionally, you can experiment with garnishes like a twist of citrus peel or a cherry to add another layer of flavor. For a less alcoholic version, consider diluting with a little fruit juice or soda.
What occasions are best suited for serving Blue Horizon?
Given its striking appearance and strong taste, the Blue Horizon is best suited for festive occasions, celebrations, or as a bold starter drink at parties. Its vivid color and intense flavor profile make it a memorable choice for themed events or as a conversation starter among guests.
