The Call An Ambulance cocktail is a potent and creamy concoction served in a pint glass that features a diverse mix of spirits and liqueurs. The flavorful blend combines the smooth and creamy notes of Bailey's with the tropical sweetness of coconut rum, resulting in a rich tapestry of tastes.
Vodka offers a clean, strong base, while whiskey introduces a layer of complexity with its deep, oak-infused undertones. The addition of milk softens the mix and contributes to a velvety texture, while Aftershock (Red), a spicy cinnamon liqueur, gives the drink an unexpected kick.
To round out the mix, Pimm's No. 1 contributes a fruit and spice herbal note, making Call An Ambulance a unique and indulgent cocktail experience that's both bold and adventurous.

Can I substitute Pimm's No. 1 with another ingredient in the Call An Ambulance cocktail?
Yes, if Pimm's No. 1 is not available, you can substitute it with a similar fruit and spice-based liqueur. A good alternative would be a fruit-flavored liqueur that complements the other ingredients, though this may slightly alter the original taste profile of the cocktail.
The Call An Ambulance cocktail is not shaken. Why is stirring preferred for its preparation?
Stirring is preferred for the Call An Ambulance cocktail because it gently combines the diverse ingredients without aerating the mixture too much. This method helps to maintain the smooth texture of the cocktail and prevents the milk from potentially frothing up, which can occur with shaking.

With an alcohol content of 18.7%, the Call An Ambulance cocktail sits on the higher end of the spectrum compared to many standard cocktails, which usually range between 10% and 15% alcohol by volume. Its potent mix makes it a strong choice.
What types of occasions are most suitable for serving the Call An Ambulance cocktail?
Given its unique name and strong blend of ingredients, the Call An Ambulance cocktail is best suited for casual gatherings or theme parties where guests are looking for adventurous and potent drink options. Its distinctive mix makes it a conversation starter and suitable for events that are more laid-back and informal.
