Brandy Flip | Cocktail Party

Brandy Flip

A flip is a type of cocktail made from a whole egg – yolks and whites. The Brandy Flip is almost certainly one of the oldest flips, harkening back at least as far as the American colonial period.

Flips have a lot in common with egg nogs; the main difference is that nogs (usually) have cream and flips don’t. The Brandy Flip has a pleasing noggy character, without the thick texture normally associated with that holiday treat.

We often treat nutmeg as an optional garnish, but it’s a necessary ingredient that brings that must-have holiday spice flavor.

Ingredients

Instructions

Break the egg in your shaker and stir it up a little to help break up the yolk. Add the other ingredients (except the nutmeg), and ice, and shake violently for a long time to ensure that the egg is fully emulsified.

Double-strain through a fine mesh strainer into a chilled cocktail glass or coupe, and garnish with the nutmeg.

Far superior to any other cocktail app

I have only been using the app for a short time but already I can tell that it is far superior to any other cocktail app I have used until now. The user interface is easy to use and visually appealing, and the search function displays recipes as you type which will make this app easy and fast to use. Highly recommended for use as a bartender or server, or at home making drinks for a party or night in. The developer also promises recipes added regularly and the customer support is second to none.
