Rum Flip | Cocktail Party

Rum Flip

The Rum Flip is an antique recipe, dating from the days when taverns would serve rum and beer thickened with egg. It’s a minimalist take on an egg nog, with richly woody, spicy flavors set against the smooth sweetness of a fluffy egg.

A demerara or brown sugar syrup is the standard here here, but a vanilla or cinnamon syrup would be a welcome change of pace.

Ingredients

Instructions

Shake all ingredients (except the nutmeg) first without ice, and then again with ice added. Double-strain through a fine mesh strainer into a small, chilled coupe or sour glass. Garnish with the nutmeg.

Game Changer

This is a game changer. When you're at the liquor store, thinking, "Yeah, ok fine what does Ancho Reyes liquor get me?" you open the app, look up Chile liquor and see that it gets you like 11 new cocktails. This is addictive, and indeed worth the price. We're having a blast under quarantine. While some of the ingredients are kind of anonymous, the icons look like the Campari bottle, and the descriptions often tell you if Campari will work or if you need Aperol. If you <3 cocktails, get this.
