FAQ's
Why is the Sex In The Post Office cocktail stirred and not shaken?
Stirring the Sex In The Post Office cocktail, as opposed to shaking, is preferred to gently mix the ingredients without diluting the drink too much with ice. This method maintains the integrity of the delicate flavours, especially of the Cointreau and vodka, and keeps the drink clear rather than cloudy.
What is the best way to serve the Sex In The Post Office cocktail to enhance its flavor?
The best way to serve the Sex In The Post Office cocktail is over ice in a lowball glass to keep it well chilled, and with a dash of orange juice and a top-up of lemonade to strike a balance between the sweetness and tanginess, enhancing its flavor profile.
How does the alcohol content in Sex In The Post Office compare to other popular cocktails?
With an alcohol content of 6.86%, Sex In The Post Office is relatively lower in alcohol compared to many classic cocktails like a Margarita or Martini. This makes it a lighter option suitable for those preferring a milder drink.
What garnishes work best with Sex In The Post Office to enhance its presentation and flavor?
A slice of orange or a twist of orange peel works best as a garnish for Sex In The Post Office. The citrus element complements the orange juice and Cointreau in the drink, enhancing its presentation and adding a fresh aroma.
Can I substitute any of the ingredients in Sex In The Post Office if I don't have them available?
Yes, you can substitute Triple Sec or any orange-flavored liqueur for Cointreau if you don't have it available. For a non-alcoholic version, you can use a non-alcoholic vodka alternative and skip the Cointreau, increasing the orange juice and lemonade to maintain the flavor.
