Tips You Must Know!
- Homemade Sweet and Sour Mix: For a fresher taste, try making your own sweet and sour mix by combining equal parts sugar and water, then adding lemon juice to taste. Alternatively, you can use a ready-made sweet and sour mix from the store.
- No Cocktail Shaker? No Problem: If you don’t have a cocktail shaker on hand, simply mix all the ingredients directly in your serving glass. Just stir well to ensure everything blends nicely.
- Pairing Suggestions: Enhance your AMF experience by serving it alongside tasty party appetizers like chicken wings or sliders. The bold flavors of the cocktail complement these savory bites perfectly, making for a memorable gathering.
Storing Leftover Mixed Cocktails!
- Without Soda: If you’ve mixed your cocktail but haven’t added the soda yet, you can store the leftovers in an airtight container or bottle. Keep it in the refrigerator, and it should stay fresh for a couple of days.
- With Soda: If you’ve already added the soda, the cocktail will go flat if left in the fridge. To keep your drink bubbly, it’s best to mix in the soda right before serving. If you do have leftovers with soda, they’re still safe to drink but will lose their fizz.
