FAQ's
Can I substitute Lillet Blanc with something else in the Jabberwock cocktail?

Why is the Jabberwock cocktail stirred and not shaken?

A thin orange twist or a lemon twist would complement the Jabberwock cocktail beautifully. The citrus note would enhance the underlying flavors of the orange bitters and provide a refreshing aroma.
