Cheese Plate

Bold, aged cheeses like cheddar or gouda with their robust flavors can complement the whiskey's warmth and the strawberry's sweetness.

Dark Chocolate

A square of high-quality dark chocolate would create a luxurious contrast to the zesty lemon while echoing the depth of the whiskey.

BBQ

Savory and slightly sweet BBQ dishes, like baby back ribs, provide the perfect backdrop for the Sweet Revenge's whiskey and fruit notes to shine.

Desserts

Tarts or cakes featuring berries or citrus flavors would resonate beautifully with the cocktail's balance of tart and sweet notes.

If you don't have strawberry liqueur, you can substitute it with raspberry liqueur. If you prefer a less sweet cocktail, you can reduce the amount of sugar.

Spicy Revenge

• 2 oz Fireball Cinnamon Whiskey
• 1 oz Strawberry liqueur
• 1 oz Lemon juice
• 1 tsp Agave syrup

Swap out the regular whiskey for Fireball, and replace sugar with agave syrup. Shake it up and you get a spicy kick that complements the sweet strawberry and tangy lemon. This would warm your insides with a cinnamon blaze, offering an edgier Sweet Revenge for those who like to play with fire.

Berry Citrus Burst

• 2 oz Whiskey
• 1 oz Mixed berry liqueur
• 1 oz Orange juice
• 1 tsp Sugar

Replace strawberry liqueur with mixed berry liqueur, and lemon juice with orange juice. This concoction results in a fruitier, more tropical version of Sweet Revenge, bursting at the seams with vibrant berry notes, complemented by the soft, seductive whispers of orange zest in the background.

Dessert Delight

• 2 oz Vanilla Infused Whiskey
• 1 oz Strawberry liqueur
• 1 oz Lemon juice
• 1 tsp Maple syrup

Using vanilla-infused whiskey and maple syrup instead of regular sugar creates a dessert-worthy Sweet Revenge. It would taste like a sinful strawberry shortcake in liquid form, but with a lemony lift that reminds you it's still a cocktail you're dealing with—not just dessert in disguise.
