FAQ's

Preparation techniques icon

How do you properly stir The Smoothdaddy cocktail to ensure the best taste?

To properly stir The Smoothdaddy cocktail, fill your highball glass with ice, add 60ml of Jagermeister, then top up with lemonade. Gently stir the mixture for about 10 to 15 seconds.

A lemon wedge works perfectly as a garnish for The Smoothdaddy. It complements the citrus notes in the lemonade and adds a fresh, vibrant look to the drink. Simply place the wedge on the rim of the highball glass or add a small slit and slide it onto the edge for a beautiful presentation.

Ingredient substitutions icon

Can I substitute Jagermeister with another liquor in The Smoothdaddy?

Yes, if you prefer a different taste profile, you can substitute Jagermeister with a similar herb-based liqueur, such as Fernet Branca for a bitter edge or an herbal schnapps for a sweeter touch.
