FAQ's

Ingredient specifics icon

What are Bailey's and Advocaat, and how do they affect the taste of the Ooouh! cocktail?

Bailey's is an Irish cream liqueur made from cream, cocoa, and Irish whiskey, offering a creamy, chocolatey flavor profile. Advocaat is a rich and creamy liqueur made with eggs, sugar, and brandy, known for its smooth, custardy taste. When combined in the Ooouh! cocktail, these ingredients create a decadently creamy drink with hints of chocolate, vanilla, and subtle brandy and whiskey undertones.

Alcohol content comparison icon

How does the alcohol content of the Ooouh! compare to other shooter cocktails?

With an alcohol content of 17.25%, the Ooouh! cocktail sits on the lower end of the spectrum compared to many other shooter cocktails, which can range upwards of 30% alcohol by volume (ABV). Its relatively lower alcohol content makes it a milder choice for those who prefer a less intense drinking experience.

Serving suggestions icon

What is the ideal way to serve the Ooouh! to best enjoy its flavors?

The Ooouh! cocktail should be served cold in a shot glass to fully appreciate its creamy texture and rich flavors. It is not shaken or stirred, to maintain the distinct layering of the Bailey's and Advocaat, which also adds to the visual appeal of the drink. Serving it chilled enhances the creaminess and smoothness of the liqueurs involved.

Ingredient substitutions icon

Are there any recommended substitutions for Bailey's or Advocaat in the Ooouh! cocktail if they are not available?

If Bailey's is not available, any other Irish cream liqueur or even a homemade blend of cream, whiskey, and chocolate or coffee flavorings can be an alternative. For Advocaat, a suitable substitute could be Eggnog liqueur for its similar egg-based, creamy properties, or a homemade mixture of egg yolks, sugar, and brandy. Keep in mind, substitutions may slightly alter the final taste and texture of the cocktail.

Dietary considerations icon

Given its ingredients, is the Ooouh! cocktail suitable for individuals with specific dietary restrictions?

The Ooouh! cocktail contains Bailey's, which is made with cream, and Advocaat, which is egg-based, making it unsuitable for vegans and individuals with dairy or egg allergies. Additionally, Bailey's and some brands of Advocaat contain alcohol derived from grain, which might not be suitable for those with certain grain allergies or intolerances. Always check the specific brands of ingredients used for allergen information.
