Snotball
Cocktail recipe

Rating

3.87 / 5
The Snotball cocktail is an interesting concoction that combines the tartness of lime juice with the sweet and fruity flavor of melon liqueur, balanced by the carbonation and crispness of lemonade. Advocaat, a rich and creamy liqueur made from eggs, sugar, and brandy, adds a unique depth and smoothness to the drink. Despite its playful and somewhat off-putting name, the Snotball offers an intriguing mix of flavors, served in a lowball glass, and often garnished with a slice of lime or melon for an extra touch of flair. This cocktail's distinctive green hue, coupled with its creamy texture, makes it a memorable choice for adventurous drinkers.

FAQ's

Ingredient substitutions icon

Can I substitute lime juice with anything else in the Snotball cocktail?

Yes, if you don't have lime juice available, you can substitute it with an equal amount of lemon juice. The taste will slightly change, but it will still provide the necessary acidity to balance the sweetness of the other ingredients.

Garnishing tips icon

What garnish would work well with a Snotball?

Considering the ingredients and the color of the cocktail, a slice of lime or a melon ball would work well as a garnish. These garnishes would not only add to the visual appeal but also complement the flavors of the drink.

Serving suggestions icon

Is there a specific way to serve the Snotball to enhance its experience?

The Snotball should be served cold in a lowball glass to enhance its flavors. You can chill the glass beforehand to keep the cocktail cold for a longer period. Additionally, stirring the cocktail well before serving ensures that the ingredients are well-mixed and the flavor is balanced.

Non alcoholic variations icon

How can I make a non-alcoholic version of the Snotball?

To create a non-alcoholic version of the Snotball, substitute the melon liqueur with non-alcoholic melon syrup and the Advocaat with a blend of egg yolks, sugar, and vanilla extract to mimic the texture and flavor. Replace the alcoholic content with additional lemonade or a mix of sparkling water and a bit of cream to maintain the creamy consistency.

With an alcohol content of 9.38%, the Snotball sits on the lower end of the spectrum compared to many cocktails. Most classic cocktails have an alcohol content ranging from 15% to 30%.
