FAQ's

Alcohol content comparison icon

How does the alcohol content in Strike, You’re Out! compare to other cocktails?

The alcohol content of Strike, You’re Out! is relatively high at 30%. This is because it consists solely of three liqueurs, each contributing evenly to its strength. Compared to a standard cocktail which might range between 10% to 20% alcohol content, Strike, You’re Out! is on the stronger side, making it more potent than many traditional cocktails.

Ingredient substitutions icon

Can I substitute any ingredients in Strike, You’re Out! for something less strong?

Yes, if you find Strike, You’re Out! too potent, you can substitute one of the spirits for something with a lower alcohol content. For example, instead of Jagermeister, you could use a coffee or herbal liqueur that has a lower ABV. Keep in mind that this will alter the flavor profile, but it can help in reducing the overall alcohol content.

Serving suggestions icon

What is the best way to serve Strike, You’re Out!?

Strike, You’re Out! is best served cold in a highball glass. As it's not shaken or stirred, you should pour the ingredients directly into the glass over ice to cool it down without diluting the drink's flavors too much. Since its components are all spirits, chilling thoroughly helps create a smoother drinking experience.

Customization ideas icon

Any tips for customizing Strike, You’re Out! for a sweeter taste?

To sweeten Strike, You’re Out!, you could introduce a sweet liqueur or syrup.
