She’s Leaving Home is the delicious love child of a Bourbon Lift and a Ramos Gin Fizz, named for a classic Beatles hit. Originally posted at Liquor.com, it’s since disappeared from the site (and the internet at large, it would seem), but we believe it was a creation of the Teeling company, makers of a fine small-batch whiskey.
We’re glad we were able to save this recipe for you, dear drinker, because it’s utterly fabulous. Whiskey (we think bourbon or blended works best here) and coffee liqueur are a no-brainer combination that are elevated both literally and figuratively by the addition of cream, egg whites, fizzy sparkling water, and the heady scent of orange blossom.
