How long should I stir a cocktail ?

When the mix is made purely out of liquors / spirits ( does not contain eggs, cream or juices ) we will almost always stir the ingredients because it blends them together just right without overdoing it such as the case when we shake instead.

As for the duration of a stir, it will depend on your personal preference when it comes to the alcoholic strength of the cocktail.

Like your cocktails super strong ? Stir lightly
Do you like them light and very diluted ?  Stir longer

For the Blue Monday we feel like either way could work just fine as the cocktail is delicious both ways !

How long do you think this cocktail should be stirred ?
