FAQ's
Can I substitute vodka for gin in the Sour-faced Queen cocktail?

What is the best way to serve the Sour-faced Queen cocktail?
The Sour-faced Queen cocktail is best served cold in a cocktail glass. To enhance the experience, chill the glass beforehand and consider adding a small ice cube or two to keep the cocktail cool without diluting it too quickly.
How does the alcohol content in the Sour-faced Queen compare to a standard cocktail?
The Sour-faced Queen has an alcohol content of 29.69%, which is slightly higher than many standard cocktails, such as a Margarita or a Mojito, which typically fall around 20-25% alcohol content. This makes it a stronger drink, so it should be enjoyed responsibly.
How can I make the Sour-faced Queen more visually appealing?
To make the Sour-faced Queen more visually appealing, consider adding a floating garnish, such as a thin wheel of lime or a star-shaped cutout of grapefruit peel. You can also add a splash of soda for some effervescence and a slight variation in flavor, which will make the cocktail more inviting.
