Savor the Burn:
Rose City Flip
May 29, 2024 by W2
Who here has had a cocktail with a whole egg in it? Then add whole milk! Saying this cocktail was creamy doesn't even come close! This cocktail was fantastic! Crafter by Jordan Hughes, cocktail maker and visual storyteller behind @highProofPreacher, named best drinks Instagram 2019 by Saveur Magazine. Flips are an old-school drink category that are traditionally comprised of spirit, sugar and a whole egg (for that frothy texture). Just one ounce of 1792 Full-Proof bourbon gives this rich and decadent cocktail a solid punch, while still being balanced and approachable.

Garnish: Grate fresh nutmeg and a cinnamon stick over top. |

The idea is pretty simple. As we taste and review various whiskies, we will be making a few cocktails along the way and even tweaking as we see fit to give them a new perspective.
