FAQ's

ORIGINS_HISTORY

What is the origin of the name 'Raspberry Lynchburg'?

The name 'Raspberry Lynchburg' likely derives from Lynchburg, Tennessee, the location of the Jack Daniel's distillery, which is renowned for its whiskey.

INGREDIENT_SUBSTITUTIONS

What can I use as a substitute for raspberry liqueur if I don't have it?

If you don't have raspberry liqueur, you can substitute it with other fruit liqueurs such as Chambord or a berry-flavored syrup as a non-alcoholic option. For a homemade alternative, muddle fresh raspberries with a bit of sugar or simple syrup.

FAQ

Is it necessary to use fresh lime juice in the cocktail?

To adjust the alcohol content in a Raspberry Lynchburg, you can vary the amount of whiskey and raspberry liqueur according to your preference.
