Cocktail recipe

Rating

3.58 / 5
The Iceberg Paralyser is a rich and indulgent cocktail that marries the bold flavors of coffee liqueur and vodka with the sweet effervescence of cola, rounded out by the creamy texture of milk. Its unique combination creates a multi-layered drinking experience, with the warming depth of the coffee flavor at the forefront, complemented by the slight sharpness of vodka and a caramel-like sweetness from the cola, all softened by the smoothness of milk. Served in a lowball glass, this cocktail provides a hearty and comforting beverage, often enjoyed as a dessert drink or a decadent treat.

FAQ's

Ingredient substitutions icon

Can I use a different type of coffee liqueur in the Iceberg Paralyiser?

Yes, you can substitute the coffee liqueur in an Iceberg Paralyser with any brand or type of coffee liqueur you prefer or have on hand. The taste may vary slightly depending on the coffee liqueur's intensity and sweetness.

Preparation techniques icon

How do I properly stir the Iceberg Paralyiser to achieve the best blend of flavors?

To properly stir the Iceberg Paralyiser, fill the lowball glass with ice, add the coffee liqueur and vodka, then gently pour in cola and milk on top. Use a long spoon to reach the bottom of the glass and stir smoothly and steadily for about 10-15 seconds to ensure all ingredients are well mixed without creating too much froth.

Serving suggestions icon

What type of glass is best suited for serving the Iceberg Paralyiser, and can I use alternatives?

The Iceberg Paralyiser is best served in a lowball glass as suggested. However, if you don't have a lowball glass, any short, wide glass such as a tumbler or an old-fashioned glass can be a good alternative. The key is to ensure there's enough room for stirring and the final volume of the drink.

Alcohol content comparison icon

How does the alcohol content of the Iceberg Paralyiser compare to that of a standard cocktail?

The alcohol content of the Iceberg Paralyiser is around 3.6%, which is relatively low compared to many standard cocktails that typically hover around 10-20% alcohol by volume (ABV). This makes the Iceberg Paralyiser a lighter option, suitable for those seeking a milder alcoholic beverage.

Dietary considerations icon

Is the Iceberg Paralyiser suitable for vegetarians or individuals with specific dietary restrictions?

The Iceberg Paralyiser is generally suitable for vegetarians as it contains no meat products. However, it contains milk, which makes it unsuitable for vegans or those with lactose intolerance. Individuals with dietary restrictions should also check the specific brands of coffee liqueur and vodka for any additional ingredients that may not meet their dietary needs.
