FAQ's

Alcohol content comparison icon

How does the alcohol content of a Royal Flush compare to other shots?

The Royal Flush has an alcohol content of 27.5%, which is fairly moderate compared to other shots. Many shots range in alcohol content from 30% to 50% depending on the ingredients. The Royal Flush offers a less intense option for those looking for a milder shot experience.

Serving suggestions icon

What is the best way to serve a Royal Flush?

The Royal Flush is best served in a shot glass, ideally chilled. To enhance the experience, you can chill the shot glasses in the freezer before serving. This cocktail is not shaken or stirred, so simply mixing the peach schnapps and whiskey and pouring them into the shot glass is sufficient.

Ingredient substitutions icon

Can I substitute anything for the whiskey in a Royal Flush?

Yes, if you're looking to substitute the whiskey in a Royal Flush, consider using bourbon or a different type of whiskey for a slightly different flavor profile. Bourbon will add a sweeter, fuller taste to the cocktail. Always remember, the substitution may slightly alter the original taste intended for the Royal Flush.

Occasion suitability icon

What occasions are best suited for serving a Royal Flush?

Given its moderate alcohol content and quick serving style, the Royal Flush is suitable for casual gatherings, poker nights, or as a kickoff to a longer night of celebration. Its name and presentation make it especially fitting for casino-themed parties or events.

Customization ideas icon

What are some ways I can customize a Royal Flush?

To customize a Royal Flush, you can try adding a splash of cranberry juice or lemonade for a touch of acidity and sweetness. For a decorative twist, garnish with a lemon twist or a cherry. Experimenting with different types of whiskey or peach schnapps can also give your Royal Flush a unique flavor.
