Ingredients

  • 1.5 oz bourbon or rum/vodka/whiskey
  • 0.5 oz sloe gin or classic gin
  • 0.5 oz honey syrup equal parts honey & water
  • 0.25 oz ginger liqueur optional
  • 1 egg whole, very fresh
  • 2 dash Angostura bitters
  • Freshly grated nutmeg for garnish
  • Cubed ice for shaking

Instructions

  • Add cubed ice. Shake again until well chilled.

Notes

Fresh eggs give the best texture. Use whole egg for richness, or egg white for a lighter drink. Try maple syrup for a twist. Small glass is best. Letting the drink warm slightly brings out the spices.
